Dave Attell. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

I like how McGreevey used to govern one of the most populous states in the U.S., but is now admitting that he is a complete and total moron. 'I bought my furniture on clearance; I let my wife pay for the wedding and honeymoon; I never gave a second thought to what any of it was costing us.'

It's a good thing the custodial portion of this separation is settled, b/c I wouldn't let this guy look after my dog or cat on a long weekend, let alone a living human being like a child.

Dave, you are correct, sir.

However, "govern" and "complete and total moron" are highly correlated terms, and yes, there are several obvious examples (oh, and one in particular) that I'll let readers acknowledge.

Say what will be said about Spitzer, the guy has only proved himself moronic in a way that wouldn't matter in civilized countries. And Jersey learned, it would seem, as Corzine's no intellectual slouch.
