New Jersey Governor Resigns After Admitting To Gay Affair
 

(AP) - In a stunning declaration, Gov. James E. McGreevey announced his resignation Thursday and acknowledged that he had an extramarital affair with another man. "My truth is that I am a gay American," he said with his wife by his side at a nationally televised news conference. "Shamefully, I engaged in adult consensual affairs with another man, which violates my bonds of matrimony," the twice-married father of two said. "It was wrong, it was foolish, it was inexcusable." The Democrat said his resignation would be effective Nov. 15

I fail to see how being involved in an extramarital relationship, gay or not, makes a person suddenly unfit for office.

Why do we have 4958675763674875866 threads on this?

LOL :1orglaugh

Looks like i am not the only one that noticed this.

:winkwink:

I don't think the republicans had much to do with him resigning.

Hehe, hey Angel, i want to get intouch with you for biz reasons, how can i find ya?

Big deal i don't realy care if he is gay or not

I knew he was gay from the start, nobody believed me. I don't care neither, i don't support gay marriage and so forth, but like i said when i heard the news. OH WELL!

Do you have an ICQ #?


:)

I agree with you there, but from what I have heard on the most recent reports he let his love life get entangled with his job as governor, and made some bad decisions and a lawsuit against him or the state or both is pending as a result. Gay, straight or bi, I guess that is grounds to tender your resignation (if it's true). Someone wise once told me "never fuck where you make your buck" - sage advice.

This is almost as surreal as Colin Powell in a construction hat doing a bad takeoff of YMCA a couple of weeks ago:glugglug

His wife is sitting next to him, the guy has two kids, and he says, "I'm a gay American." Huh? If i were married and my wife declared herself a lesbian to the world, I'd feel owned.

Good for him coming out of the closet... I think it's fucked up that he would be expected to resign.
