McGreevey scandal just got weirder!
Eleven days ago, Gov. Jim McGreevey revealed his homosexuality, a gay extramarital affair and his intentions to quit in November. Since that bombshell announcement, news outlets around the world have jumped on the story asking what is behind the dicey details.

And this sordid tale has become a mess. The man insiders swear was McGreevey’s lover -- Golan Cipel -- sent out lawyer Allen Lowy to tell us Cipel was thinking about filing a sexual harassment lawsuit because the governor’s sexual advances were unwanted. That was followed up with a declaration that Cipel is not gay.

Not to be outdone, McGreevey administration sources leaked the coming out of at least three men, all claiming to be Cipel’s former lovers. One of the men was said to be a northern New Jersey university professor. The next day that man was identified as Dr. Michael David Miller, who ran around giving topless interviews in his shorts.

Two days later Miller brought another familiar name into the fray when he told news reporters that he goes to temple with Charles Kushner. That’s when Essex County Sheriffs officers arrested Miller because of a "pattern of aberrant behavior.".........

1. People are muddying the water aciduously.
It is no secret where the rumors are starting. Same place the initial leaks came from: The Right Side of The NJ State Senate. and a certain prosecutor's office.

Interestingly though, all trails do lead back to Kushner.

2. So the question might be raised:
Why do bad things happen to good people? Or vice versa, for that matter.
