(New Jersey Democrat) Gov. James E. McGreevey's downfall came at the hands of a former staffer named Golan Cipel. But in the state Archives, which keeps the papers of governors and their aides dating to the 1700s, there is no record of Cipel's work.

Of course these people are criminals---but the Dem-libs MO is to assume the position of "victim" to garner sympathy whenever they get caught with their pants down. McSeedy will utter not a word about his lovebuggery since he could be sued.
BACKUP It was all downhill when Jimbo and Golan met when then-Mayor Jimmy went on a politicans' obeisance tour to Israel to scrounge for votes and campaign money. Even better than the tour, Jimbo brought lovebug Golan home as a vote-buying souvenir.
The McGreevey-Cipel mating occured just two weeks after McG proposed marriage to his now-ex Dina Matos. Nice guy, eh?
McG brought Cipel back to NJ and set him up in an apartment not far from his Mayoral office. Fast-forward to August 12, 2004. Now-Governor McGreevey stunned a nationwide television audience when he announced he was gay and would resign from office. The Media quickly identified Golan Cipel as McGreevey's lovebug. McGreevey made himself into a victim.
Golan was no prize either, and tried to blackmail the State of NJ into paying him big bucks to disappear. Cipel then fled to Israel to avoid prosecution, and tried to portray himself as someone who had been sexually harassed by Governor McGreevey.
Law enforcement sources then told the media the FBI was investigating Cipel's blackmail efforts. At first, attorneys for Cipel were alleged to have demanded millions of dollars from McGreevey in exchange for his not filing a sexual harassment lawsuit.
Then, just hours before McGreevey called his "I am A Gay American" press conference, Cipels demands allegedly included help by the Governor in allowing Touro College to build a campus in New Jersey. Among the members of the Board of this medical institute are convicted felon, Charles Kushner (Cipel-McG's matchmaker); ex-Sen Robert Torricelli (tossed out of office for ethical violations) was hired by the College to lobby on their behalf.
Only six days after Gov McGreeveys stunning announcement, Charles Kushner pleaded guilty to campaign finance violations.......and blackmail charges involving sending his sister a videotape Kushner made of her husband with a prostitute.
Crimes against the state charges should have been initited WRT official acts taken by McGreevey in the hiring and lying about Golan Cipel. Instead, McG erased all evidence of Cipel's activities in government.
Another Dem role model bites the dust.
“August 12, 2004. Now-Governor McGreevey stunned a nationwide television audience when he announced he was gay and would resign from office.”
If you lived in NJ the announcement that McGreevy was gay was not stunning. It was the worse kept secret in the state and well known by all (and not reported by the msm) that he was gay.
The announcement was done to diffuse Cipel’s blackmail attempt and to provide cover for McGreevey’s actual crimes.
It worked on both counts.
Great post/comments, Liz. Thanks.

Yuppers!

>>>The announcement was done to diffuse Cipels blackmail attempt and to provide cover for McGreeveys actual crimes.
OR it was done because McG was identified as State Official 1 in the Machiavellian bribe scandal involving the eminent domain of the Halper’s Farm.
RE: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1166448/posts
Is Governor McGreevey “State Official 1”???
OR he was covering up the investigation into his money making off of billboard sales.

McCullough: MORE TO MCGREEVEY THAN MEDIA IS REPORTING

Just too many incidents to choose from.
Kushner just bought his son Jared his very own newspaper
——The New York Observer.
Oh goody. Ad space as a laundry conduit.
Could it be that the blanks were to censor sexually explicit material?
Actually McGroovy and Cipel initated a much-anticipated Democrat election ritual into the Statehouse.
The Democrats get elected, they go to the Statehouse urinals, they get down on their knees. When the elected Dems bendover, they receive a Slim Jim and a Slurpee as part of a "Welcome to Trenton" gift package.
Heheheh----nice tax evasion scheme.
Like sidewalk hot dog vendors----self-same scam.
