I promised myself I wouldn't blog about Eliot Spitzer after this video basically did the whole thing to perfection. But technically, this post is about ex-Governor of New Jersey Jim McGreevey, who decided that coming out of the closet and resigning last year wasn't enough, and that it would be a good idea to wait twelve months and then publicly admit to bisexual threesomes with his aide.
Frankly, it's the timing of the whole thing that makes me suspicious...one Northeastern Governor gets unseated thanks to a juicy sex scandal, then another does, then the first guy comes up with even more juicy elaborations on his sexcapades. Seems to me like someone's missing the ol' spotlight. Well, no worries Mr. McGreevey; I think after your little public dispute with Spitzer via press conference (embedded below for your viewing pleasure), you're going right back on the front page. Of this blog, anyway.

I know this is off-topic but have you heard about the huge snow blizzard pounding the mid-atlantic part of the country? The washington dc area is getting about 2 feet of snow for the second time this winter. I have relatives in that area and they're all stuck in their homes.

ReplyI always read your amazing website every week, its great fun and got lots of interesting information to take in and lots of interesting articles.
ReplyMy fellow on Facebook shared this link with me and I'm not dissapointed that I came to your blog.
Replyp.s. Year One is already on the Internet and you can watch it for free.
Thank you for the picture Mr. Spitzer. That was too funny. Thank you very much for the new wallpaper.
ReplyIs it wrong that this video made me horny instead of sick? It is? OK. Just checking.
ReplyAnyways, I was all ready to vote for Hot Farts until I read the part about the 40 grand. I'd rather you guys not have more money than me. Sorry.
Seriously, I can't wait until Law and Order does a "Ripped from the headlines" episode on these pieces of work. I vote for Tom Skeritt to play Ex Gov. Spitzer. Meredith Baxter can play the wife.
Replylike my orgasms.
ReplyUnderstandable.
ReplyThank you for plugging the Hot Farts, Miguel. We're all grateful.
ReplyMegan, that would have required a level of research I'm just not equipped to undertake.
ReplyMikey Swaim, I don't want to alarm you but... *looks cautiously to the left, than the right* I think those press conferences might be fabricated. I'm just saying, not sure where you sourced those conferences from, but I think someone might have changed what they said. I'm like 40% of that.
Reply"...this post is about ex-Governor of New Jersey Jim McGreevey, who decided that coming out of the closet and resigning last year wasn’t enough, and that it would be a good idea to wait twelve months and then publicly admit to bisexual threesomes with his aide."
ReplyIt wasn't last year, Swaim. It was three years ago. Figure it out.
Sometimes I wonder if I should call the happy farm to come pick you up, Swaim. I think they would give me a nice reward so they can study your brain.
ReplyThat's freakin' hilarious. McGreevey's remarks made me want to vomit, but I loved the one-upsmanship (or one-upwomanmanmidgethorsesemenlunchmanship) involved.
ReplyI just realized that Governor Spitzer's name is...Spitzer. Heh heh heh.
