I was Cipel's lover...

"Golan says he's not gay? He could have fooled me," Dr. David Miller of Livingston, N.J., told the Daily News yesterday, as he claimed that he had a gay affair with the ex-McGreevey aide. "We love each other. Is that a crime? We're lovers," said Miller, 51, an openly gay man and divorced father of two. In a manic, disjointed interview, Miller said that Cipel had made a pillow-talk confession: He still carries a torch for McGreevey. "Cipel never complained about the governor. They were in love," Miller said outside his home. Miller also claimed to reporters that he is a CIA operative who takes pills doled out by the intelligence agency to make his skin darker so he can infiltrate unnamed groups. He offered no mementos, letters or photos as proof of his relationship with Cipel. He called Cipel a "gold digger" and said he believes the Israeli national was egged on by McGreevey's enemies to claim the governor sexually assaulted him. The Daily News reported yesterday that an unidentified college professor had reported his affair to the governor's aides. If true, Miller could wreck Cipel's claims of being a straight man victimized by McGreevey's predatory advances. Miller - who insisted on speaking Spanish because, he said, he hates the United States - told reporters he met Cipel in Israel through family friends and that he still had a soft spot for him. "Despite his problems, I'm going to go visit him," said Miller, shirtless and wearing purple shorts. Cipel, who fled the spotlight for his family's home outside Tel Aviv, denied these latest stories about his sex life. "I never had any relationship with any man, so I don't know what they want from me," Cipel told a close friend yesterday who spoke to The News. Cipel called Miller's tale "ridiculous and laughable," and said it was now open season on him - "anyone can get up now and claim he had an affair." A statement from Cipel's media consultant characterized the story as "a blatant lie and manipulation," and part of the governor's ongoing smear campaign. Miller, a doctor and adjunct professor at Montclair State University, said he had already given a deposition in the federal probe into McGreevey's charges that Cipel tried to blackmail him by claiming sexual harassment. He said Cipel fled the country "because he was scared when he learned there was a federal investigation into extortion." Sources told The News that the governor's office took Miller's allegation seriously and was having private investigators check it out. Yesterday, McGreevey's spokesman Micah Rasmussen denied that. "We couldn't care less if Cipel has ex-boyfriends," Rasmussen said. Sources said Miller had wanted to get his tale to the governor, and so three days ago contacted New Jersey lawyer Philip Vinick. "It was a strange call. ... I know nothing about him, or the truth of what he said," Vinick said. Miller's own story is reminiscent of McGreevey's coming-out tale. The doctor said he was a happily married man with two children, when, at age 38, he acknowledged he was gay. "One hundred thousand dollars worth of therapy later and I still don't understand," Miller said.

He offered no mementos, letters or photos as proof of his relationship with Cipel.
Sure sounds honest and rational to me!
Miller - who insisted on speaking Spanish because, he said, he hates the United States
And he's *so* sane!
I think we have a new winner for nutjob of the year! This guy makes John F'in Kerry look positively competent and sane.
I wonder if Miller was also running secret CIA missions in Cambodia -- under President Nixon's orders, back in late 1968!
What no wonderbra?
You're finding some interesting articles today, NYC GOP Chick. Thanks, I needed the giggles.
He was obviously in a saucy mood that day!
Both from the same newspaper!
Do you want to be on my ping list for this sort of eclectic stuff? :)
This Miller character is really a whack job! Purple shorts, no shirt, speaking Spanish ('cause he hates the US), taking dark-skin pills and working for the CIA. And a professor? What does he teach: improvisational absurdist comedy?
He offered no mementos, letters or photos as proof of his relationship with Cipel.
And the Daily News considers this newsworthy how, exactly?
At least it's now clear to everyone that "journalistic standards" do not exist.
What's their next headline? "Batboy admits gay affair with Cipel."
And how does Charles Kushner factor in this Gay Triangle?

"Kushner sponsored the work visa that allowed Cipel to come to the United States and gave him a $30,000-a-year job in public relations with one of his companies."
And has been doing so since Christmas of 1968 when a swift boat took him to Cambodia on a top, top secret mission.
Sounds like Jerry Springer has next season all laid out for him.
"One hundred thousand dollars worth of therapy later and I still don't understand," Miller said.
It's called 'SIN', you loon. And all the therapy and money in the world can't help you straighten it out. You've got one solution, and that's Jesus Christ.
Man, this guy is out there. Yep...perfectly normal, healthy and sane...just what they want us to think.
Yikes!
Sounds like he could be a better candidate for Pres nominated by the Dems than Kerry is!
This show is quickly becoming my all-time numero uno scandal. It's almost too much fun!
My only complaint is - not enough Torch!
But it's early, and I'm sure he's lurking just off stage.
