Frauds, Liars, And Bullies-Part 2

Hey it's Woodbridge Mary Contrary's friend back in the news. From cbs news: "More details have surfaced regarding Jim McGreevey's upcoming book. In new excerpts from the page-turner, the former New Jersey Governor talks of struggling to come to terms with his homosexuality. He also talks about secret sexual encounters at bookstores and highway rest-stops. He even writes that he once tried hard to play it "straight," looking at Playboy centerfolds and going to topless bars. The excerpts do not mention whether these activities continued into his term of governor. McGreevey's book is due out this September." I wonder whether Jim encountered Vito? If he went to topless bars maybe he met him at the Bing? Poor Vito, his character was getting annoying, but he didn't deserve the fate dealt to him. I'm glad Sil meeted out some revenge on gay baiter Fat Dom. To think, I once admired Phil for being a stand up guy. Phil will surely get his, maybe he'll be crushed to death by Ginny Sack. Say whatever you want about Jim, he wasn't a bully. I know someone in New Jersey, who is just like Jim, but he's also a bully.
Postscript: This is some pretty interesting pseudo-intellectual stuff from ew.com by Gary Susman, "I'm one of those who think Vito's story line this season was essential to the thematic concerns of the show and not a side trip or distraction. Vito's plight raised fundamental questions about what it means, in Tony's world, to be a man, questions that resonated richly throughout this episode. There's Phil, literally coming out of the closet as he presides over Vito's final moments. There's A.J.'s friends, making casual homophobic jokes. There's Tony, telling Dr. Melfi about his rage toward his giggling, shiftless son — and turning away from her insight that the kind of shelter from Tony that Carm had always given A.J. was just the kind of protection Tony had longed for in vain from his own mother. There's Carm, practically giving Tony permission to do ''whatever it is that boys do when they're on their own'' while she's gone, and Tony taking advantage of Carm's absence to get serviced by a stripper while he's driving. (Am I the only one who thought at first that his heavy breathing was the sign of another panic attack?) And there's Fat Dom, one of Vito's killers, gloating about Vito's demise and gay-baiting the apron-clad Carlo until Carlo (like Phil, defending the manly honor of his family and himself) and Silvio kill him in a fit of rage. Behold the men."
