Former New Jersey Governor James McGreevey is Hung
Well, his portrait anyway.
At a private ceremony attended by the former governor, his partner Mark O'Donnell, his mother, and current governor Jon Corzine, a $25,000 portrait of Jim McGreevey that had been in storage for over a year was hung in the New Jersey state house. It hangs alongside portraits of other past governors.
Chen Yanning painted the portrait, which was paid for with gubernatorial transitional funds. McGreevey sat for it after leaving office.
Full portrait after the jump...
"I am a gay American."

Very clever, Andy. However, even if he was hung, I wouldn't touch it with a 10 foot pole. He's a truly disgusting human being. Truly disgusting.

When did Mark O'Donnell become his "partner"? They could only have been dating for a few months... Wouldn't the more adequete term truly be boyfriend... Maybe I've got my timeline wrong, but wasnt this guy just married and screwing around with some other guy?
Just seems like the term "partner" might trivialize it.

Oddly, Andy, I thought you meant "hanged". Do I have to give up my gay card now?
He's wearing the same outfit in the portrait and in the picture...

He's a disgraced American, who happens to be gay. Funny how his dirt-ball antics get pushed under the rug when he chooses to seek refuge in his "newly found" sexuality.
He's nothing more than a lying and cheating ex-husband and father of two. Doesn't make me think much of his "partner" either.

There is a distinct relativity between the strength, size and nature of a man's hands and the strength, size and nature of his dick. So, for the record, the man has itty bitty, boney, skinny, weak and clammy hands. The kind of hands that make you react with a recoiling cringe followed by an audible "Ewww!" when you shake hands with him.

Jim McGreevey is a piece of shit. I can't believe they would hang a picture of him. He's a liar and beyond egotistical. He thinks he's above the law and a lot smarter than anyone else. He disenfranchised people in his own state, lied to them, and swindled them. Fuck you Jim!!!!!
