I've had an interesting last couple of days. I've gotten a chance to think about some stuff. I also got around to doing some stuff that I've been intending to do for a while.
Timi- My Ringtone (LOL)
I think I may be doing this voice recording thing more often because a sista is too cheap to pay $3 a month to transfer my blogger audio account to Movable Type.
Next Oprah: Politicians on the DL
I'm still shocked about this Gov. McGreevy drama. My mouth was to the floor as I watched him admit his fallacy on national tv. A few years ago when he was running against former NJ Gov. Christine Whitman, I volunteered for his campaign. I thought that he was a pretty cool guy. I guess we all have something that we'd like to keep secret. I know I do, so I can understand McGreevy's unwillingness to "come out" to the world. However, I must admit that I really don't feel sorry for this guy. I know it was hard for him to resign, but I really feel for his wife and his children. How selfish can you be Jim? Granted we all are a bit selfish at time, myself included, but dang. That's just over the top. I'd be extremely hurt and embarassed if my husband did that crap to me.
It's not about him being gay. If you're gonna be gay, at least be honest with yourself. It's about unfaithfulness. Regardless of who he slept with, the fact remains that he's forsaken his wedding vows. I wonder if his wife new his secrets prior to marrying him? It makes me wonder if she would've walked down the isle with him if she knew that he had a thing for men. It would be wise to share those secrets with your spouse prior to saying "I Do." That kind of baggage should not be carried into a marriage. I must applaud Mrs. McGreevey. She was calm and composed. I'm sure she wasn't like that when she found out. I would not have been that composed. I might have sucker punched in front of everyone.
I don't think he was very honest about his resignation either. Upon his admission, I believed that there was more to the story. Why would quit because your gay? Granted, not everyone is receptive to the homosexual lifestyle, but that's not an excuse to leave. However, Blackmail, fraud & scandal are all excuses to bust out. So in essence, he did the appropriate thing...he just didn't tell the entire story.
I bet good ol' boy Rick Santorum loved every moment of McGreevey's confession. I bet he watched it over and over again like a gagillion times with evil laughter. We all know how much Ricky hates homos
Posted by Timi at August 14, 2004 10:37 PM | TrackBackLol girl right, that is a damn shame. 1 block away. lol. U have to pick another restaurant in the area so we can go. Have u ever been to that restuarant on 12th and Market. Its some kind of brewery its really good and Thursday's is 1/2 price burger day. Or we could go to Bertucci's i been dying to try their pizza. Or Joe's crab shack or Iron Hill or Timothy's (never been there)....lol shit i got a lot of suggestions, hit me up on AIM. :)
I've never been to the ale house, but I have been to Mikimotos. If you aren't ready for Japanese food, then I'd suggest you dont eat it. LOL. I've never been to Bertucci's. Is that in Hockessin? I went to Timothy's with some job associates and Joe's Crab Shack should change it's name to Joe's CRAP Shack. That food was a poor excuse for seafood.

As for McGreevy's deception to his wife thats a personal matter. I don't care if he's gay but what is he hiding from the public? That's what I'm concerned about. Have a good week Take it EZ
Posted by: Art4SouL at August 17, 2004 09:12 PMi am very shocked to see that mcgreevy's wife was standing right beside him, she is very strong, because i know i could have not stood there. i saw an episode of 'the practice' and they had a case about a governor who was gay and his wife caught him in bed with his lover and killed the guy, well the wife and hubby fooled the lawyers into thinking the hubby did it and at the end of the show the wife told eleanor frut(the lawyer who represented them) you still don't know do you, that i was the one that killed my hubby's lover so i know she must have known he was bi/gay all along, she said she enjoyed the status & money.
anyway girl take care and be blessed.
