They're baaaaack: The McCreepys begin divorce proceedings...

I make no secret of this: I think Jim McGreevey and Dana Matos McGreevey are vile people. But that doesn't mean I don't find it entertaining to watch these two completely obnoxious people tear each other down in public. So their divorce trial (yeas, really, they are not yet divorced) should be a blast!

This dysfunctional pair, who have not lived together in the 3.5 years since McGreevey proclaimed himself to be "a gay American" and resigned as governor of New Jersey, were both in court Tuesday to finally begin to end their marriage.

The petty pair took different routes entering court: ''It's a beautiful day,'' Jim McGreevey said as he entered alone through the back entrance of the courthouse. Dina Matos McGreevey had no comment when she arrived with her lawyer through the front courthouse entrance.

The trial will be closed to the media initially because the judge will be hearing testimony on the custody of their 6 year old daughter. In addition to custody, the other issues to be decided involve alimony, and child support, and whether McGreevey, now openly gay, committed fraud by marrying a woman.

Comments

With all due respect (and I agree neither of thse people has much of that coming their way) I don't seem to remember getting married to the opposite sex requiring that you are straight. You can say denial of sex is a grounds for divorce, but with the 6 year old there is proof that didn't happen.
