(2008-08-13) -- New Jersey Gov. James McGreevey, who thrilled Democrats nationwide with his announcement that he's an adulterous homosexual American, today called his extramarital affair "a badge of honor comparable to President Clinton's impeachment."
"It is a badge of honor, but I don't want people to think of me as the first openly-gay adulterous governor," said Mr. McGreevey. "I want to be viewed as an adulterer who happens to be a governor who happens to be gay."
Mr. McGreevey spent the day after his announcement arranging all the details of his transition out of the governor's office--a process that will occupy almost every hour of the next 94 days.
"I'm pouring all of my efforts into ensuring that the government of New Jersey does not collapse into utter chaos because of a hasty transition," he said. "I spent most of this morning reviewing my packing-tape options. It's grueling work, but I'm devoting meticulous attention to it for the good of the people of the Garden State. It will be a challenge to meet the November 15 deadline, but I gave my word, so you know what that means."
