Ridgewood NJ, the Village of Ridgewood has finally hit rock bottom. The Ridgewood Public library will be hosting a talk by former disgraced NJ Governor Jim McGreevey. McGreevy who after a Ridgewood former Mayor claimed “is not gay” abruptly resigned in 2004 after declaring himself “a gay American” and admitting an extramarital affair with a male staffer.
McGreevey a serial con artist pursued a career in the Episcopal priesthood but was rejected. According to a source at the Episcopal Diocese of Newark, his rejection was not for “being gay but for being a jackass”.
McGreevey was also the subject of an hourlong project for HBO, called “Fall to Grace,” by Alexandra Pelosi (yes, daughter of Nancy) which tracked former New Jersey Gov. Jim McGreevey’s departure from a promising career in politics in 2004 after it was revealed that he was gay and had an extramarital affair.
Recently the former Governor was unceremoniously ousted under mysterious circumstances from his job as the head of a Jersey City nonprofit. McGreevey headed Jersey City’s Employment and Training Program (JCEPT) since 2013. JCEPT is a nonprofit that gets federal funding to provide job training and services to the formerly incarcerated and other at-risk populations.

It’s an Aronsohn reunion!
Aronsohn will be on his knees servicing McGreevy
And we’re going to give money to the library to expand so they can bring more assholes like McGayve to the table ?
Not on my dime…
You know who will be there on his knees under the podium as Jimmy Boy speaks.
What about the other baldheaded individual from Newark. And he thinks he’s going to win the presidency in 2020 yeah hello. If he wins then you know the system is really corrupt and dirty
less than zero chance
Perhaps the state will name a rest stop on the highway for him. After all it was reported that was one of his proudest accomplishments, servicing random men at these places.
Didn’t the DMV rename a particular auto accident scenario as a “MCGreeevy”?
I think it used to be referred to as a “rear ender”…. But hey that’s political correctness these days!
So we need a bigger library for events like this? They could hold this one in the men’s room – there would be plenty of room for all interested in attending and it’s where McGreevy is most comfortable
