McGreevey tells wife: You'll get zilch from me

Jim McGreevey yesterday accused his soon-to-be-ex wife of "greedily" grabbing at the perks of being New Jersey's First Lady - and refusing to give them back.
In legal papers packed with snide and catty comments, the openly gay McGreevey told estranged wife Dina Matos McGreevey she can expect to get nothing from him.
Matos McGreevey had asked him to pony up $4,000 a month in alimony to help her live a lavish lifestyle like his.
"Her jealousy and contempt are almost out of control," he said.
"She greedily took the perquisites that my job offered her. ... Not only does she view [the governor's mansion] Drumthwackett as an entitlement, but she believes that she must be kept in that kind of lifestyle."
McGreevey resigned as governor in 2004 after announcing he was gay.
McGreevey's legal team said New Jersey law requires alimony payments only if the marriage lasted more than 10 years - and the McGreevey's is only three years old.
"As such, she is not entitled to alimony of any kind," said his lawyer Matthew Piermatti in the papers filed in Union Superior Court.
McGreevey, who pays $1,129 in child support, said his wife's complaint described his lavish lifestyle, concentrating on the 17-room mansion he lives in with his boyfriend.
"It does not belong to me," he said. "I have no lease and stay there only at the pleasure of its owner. ... I own no home."
And he lists his average income as $154,000 - a fraction of the $428,000 his wife claims he made last year and which, he says, included a one-time $250,000 payment for his book.
The pair's lawyers are due back in court next week.
Isn’t McGreevey supposedly in an Episcopal seminary? If so, hasn’t he learned to turn the other cheek yet? Oh, he already did. Nevermind.
He then characterized the overt homosexual as "very spiteful, very vindictive". His words proved true. Numbers of political figures were brought down just for spite. Jeremy Thorpe, Liberal party head was nailed. No more Thorpe.
I accessed GOLAN CIPAL. He has a website. He has alleged he was harassed by McGreevey. Spiteful homosexuals got on a website and alleged Cipal was known around the bath house circuit.
Nasty, nasty, in spades.
How do you know all of this, were you friends with them? How do you know he wanted to be married so HE could be gov. and renounced his gayness so she would marry him? She deserves every penny and then some, just for humiliation alone. Sex in truck stops!!! And he writes about it in a book!!! What an absolute degenerate pig.
What a downfall.
From Governor of a state to gay gigolo.
I’m in her corner, if for no other reason than to show what a rat she was married to...
Assuming that's per month, it wouldn't cover half the tuition at a decent private school, let alone food/shelter/clothing.
Away from the depravity of a sham marriage, theft of govt property to keep a lover, etc. etc., McGreevey is a monster for not supporting to the best of his financial ability the girl he fathered. He's deliberately, transparently set up his life to minimize visible financial strength, while it is obvious he enjoys a very lavish, cushy life.
A disgusting human.
If it is his child and he makes $154k/annum on average, then $1k / month for the child alone is fairly low. It wasn’t too long ago that he would owe about $77k/yr by default and the burden of proof would be on him to show otherwise.
Additionally, since he is gay, his ‘boyfriend’ is likely to have a full time job where both of their incomes are already in the expendable income bracket, since his house is provided by the state.
IMHO, he’s criminal, without honor, fails in his marriage, family, and isn’t worth society’s efforts to even consider other than to incarcerate. BTW he has also defrauded the voters by fooling them into electing a homosecual instead of living up to his oath of office. There remains another institution more corrupt than he is, namely that group which promoted him into a position of authority.
And he lists his average income as $154,000 - a fraction of the $428,000 his wife claims he made last year and which, he says, included a onetime $250,000 payment for his book.
First, if he is making $154,000 / year while a seminary student ... wow. He owes more than $1,200 per month in child support I would guess.
Second, the IRS has determined that living rent free or at a below market rental for any length of time is considered "imputed income" to the tenant, and that it is a taxable item. While they do not attached this income often, in any case of fraud they will add it just to pile on the pressure to IRS victims.
I don't like it, but if fairly enforced I would expect that McGayvee will need to pony up some additional funds to the IRS at tax time.
Your posts don’t pass my smell test.
Unreasoning fear of or antipathy toward homosexuals and homosexuality.
Nope. I'm not homophobic. My dislike of their life style is anything but unreasoning. And there is no fear involved in my opinions of them. Sometimes pity. Sometimes loathing. But never fear and never unreasoning.
I should have consulted my dictionary. OK, I’m not unreasonably fearful, I just hate them. Thanks for correcting me.
“She is probably regretting not pulling a Lorena Bobbitt while she had the chance.”
Maybe she couldn’t find it.
How do you know that she knew?
!00% right on that one!
Have a nice day!
