Just What We’ve All Been Waiting For
The McGreevey divorce trial!
TRENTON — She claims she was duped into marriage by a closeted gay man who needed the cover of a wife to advance his political career. He says he gave her a child and the coattails she rode to the governor’s mansion, thus fulfilling the marriage contract.
…McGreevey, 50, who now lives with a male partner and is studying to be an Episcopal priest, says in his book the marriage was “a contrivance on both our parts.”
It was “your parts” which caused all this mess to begin with, buddy.
“Inherit The Wind” this ain’t….

I haven’t yet seen the original “ItW”, only the remake with Kirk Douglas and Jason Robards, with Darren McGavin as the H.L. Mencken character. It was excellent. And in looking it up, I see that there was another TV version with Jack Lemmon and George C. Scott (yeah, I can see it) but with Beau Bridges in the H.L. Mencken character (WTF? I don’t see that one at all).
Our marriage was “a contrivance on both our parts”
Is this a quote about Bill and Hillary?
To call an arrangement like theirs a “marriage” is a mockery of the word marriage. Hard to say which one I’d like to see get raked over the coals more.
I just hope that they don’t show home movies during the trial.
Oh, did I mention that the Capitol Steps did McGreevey jokes tonight, too?
Ken, both Jury Duty and the Capitol Steps in the same day? You lucky spoiled bastard!
A few years ago, there was a Broadway version of Inherit the Wind with George C. Scott and Charles Durning. I wish I had gone.
