There were so many deliciously squalid layers to the 2004 Jim McGreevey scandal, from the sexual harassment threats to the TGIF three-ways, and I think it was downright heroic of me to sum them all up for this flagrant, I mean fragrant, reminiscence on newsweek.com.

You see, the mag asked various big thinkers--and me--to weigh in on potent topics from the past decade, and this was the subject they thought was perfect for my enchantingly smutty intellect. I guess it's because I've been known to down sliders at TGIF while swiveling around the bar and announcing, "I am a gay American!"

musto for newsweek.com? says:

why is musto on newsweek.com so much less entertaining than musto elsewhere? Could it be idiot humorless editors? Or the ghost of Katharine Graham putting a curse on La Dolce's computer?

Am I the only one (aside from Dina the wife and Golan Cippel) to find him hot?

The silver fox look is definitely more appealing on him than his former dye-job. I remember my New Jersey relatives were so in shock but the moment he went up on stage my gaydar went off before he even said a thing.

Let's still remember though that he came out of the closet to gloss over a major conflict of interest scandal naming his boy-toy homeland security chief, who was hardly qualified. It's a shame that the state is now stuck with a homophobic, chauvinistic, morbidly abuse turdblossum. No gay marriage there for another four years, which would have been a better rite of passage for McGreevey to do than this.

Who has a better come back to life political pulse: Him or Spitzer?

Oh but the Putin's bed and Max Mosley homage to his parent's fascit wedding guest trysts still the ones here in this country.

Though the Bill O made me celibate from falafel for quite a time, and I love Lebanese cuisine.

I might even go to TGIF for Theodore Pederast, ooops Pedersen. He's cute.

Jonster says:

Congrats!! Very snappy and you wrapped the whole thing up very well. I forgot how truly smelly that whole Joizy affair was.

Ted Pedersen looks like a lamb to the slaughter in all the pics of him on the Internet, posing alongside his menage of horror playmates like a fish on a hook.

McGreasy always made my skin crawl. He's the perfect robot politician, an empty vessel, except for his ravenous sexual appetite. I do recall that my whole impression of Dina changed after the Pedersen revelations. The boy looks 10.

Read his book. All he did was whine all the way through it. You're a gay man, deal with it.
