ECK,
WOW, we agree on something. I agree 100% with you. I just wish the man would leave his office now instead of trying to play political games. What's wrong with giving the good people of New Jersey the chance to elect a man they want, be it republican or democrate.

The important aspect of this is just how much intelligence did Cipel/Likudnik intel gain from the access McGreevy gave him? The national security breach is outrageous. McGreevy should be thrown in jail for this.

Watch and see if Cipel doesn't go back to Israel sooner than later.

You did not read the story. Cipel is in Israel.

McGreevy is a classic example of why the US government is so strict about gay people serving in sensitive posts. Those who are 'in the closet' and behave outside the margins are HUGE targets for blackmail. So are adulterers, for that matter. It's frightening to imagine how much of our national security secrets have been turned over to our enemies because of the inappropriate private actions of our leaders/lawmakers.

Bravo, Kid! I don't know why we ever lost site of this age-old lesson.

It's sad, indeed. Are there any honest politicians out there? We could probly count them on one hand.

that the mob has this guy on tape doing the dirty deeds and that is why he is stepping down. My brother in law has heard that rumor and he lives there.

Lots of rumours, lots of possibilities. McGreevey's sticking to his guns, though, about staying in there until November. Rove's undoubtedly having a fit over it not going his way. I'm sure he thought McGreevey would be forced to step down immediately, handing control over to a Republican. The funny thing is, McGreevey's poll numbers actually went up a couple percentage points after his masterful press conference.

The reason why his poll numbers went up is because he took a page out of Clinton's I Have sinned playbook. He should resign now before more dirt comes out on him. His action seems to be very shady.
