I don't give a rat's ass if he's gay, but since people are talking about how terrible it is that he lied to his wife, I thought we might want to consider whether he actually did.

household employee, and Frank did not know of the situation.

We should also consider if he's an alien.

While a public figure committing adultery is a violation of the public trust, I think the larger scandal (which some others have mentioned) was the fact that the affair was with someone on his payroll.

Not just someone on his payroll. That someone had a pretty important position.

I believe the position he was given was the head of the state's homeland security department.

I think that is a totally unfair statement. Governor McGreevey supports same sex unions and even encouraged people in New Jersey to get them. He doesn't support gay marriage. That hardly makes him a hypocrite.

Really? So in sentence 2 he supports it but in the following sentence, he doesn't support it.

No we're not...the Rowland thing still pisses me off to no end, I feel like a fool for supporting him as much as I did. What a loser that guy turned out to be.

On this - true, the sleeze thing works on both sides. But the story right now is about the guy from Jersey. If we want to talk about other sleezeballs in either party, we can always start a thread about them.
