Put the portrait in the trash
How absolutely sickening. Jim McGreevey's "people" tried to get his portrait-hanging ceremony to coincide with his book release tour. Gov. Corzine's people told him no. McGreevey's people tried again, Corzine's staff stuck to their guns and said no ceremony until the book tour is done. Good for them.
McGreevey's such a slug! I could care less about his love life. But considering the lousy job he did at the helm of our state, appointing a lover to head Homeland Security right after we were all reeling from the 9/11 attacks, and all the other damage he left behind, he doesn't deserve to have a portrait -- taxpayer funded, mind you -- in the statehouse. One of our readers said the only place his picture should be hanging is on the Post Office wall.
I hope his book tanks. A few years back, my parents saw a copy of Christie Whitman's book in a Georgia book store bargain bin for a dollar. I wouldn't even pay that to hear any more of McGreevey's self-centered whining.

New Jersey voters got and are getting what the deserve...do you really think Menendez won't be brought out in handcuffs someday..
McGreevy had his shot with portraits. His picture used to hang in every rest stop on the toll roads, perhaps as a token guardian of the restrooms.
I think I remember reading that all outgoing NJ Governors receive up to $500,000 in "transitional funds" when they leave office. I know that McGreevey took that taxpayer money and rented an office in Woodbridge for about 6 months or so after leaving office in disgrace. It wouldn't surprise me to learn that he hired staff as well. That he chose to use some of this money to have a potrait painted of himself is yet one more reason to leave New Jersey. This state is just too corrupt.
