McGreevey aide says he had sexual trysts with ex-governor, wife

[seriousstan]

Source: nj.com

A former aide to James E. McGreevey said today that he had three-way sexual trysts with the former governor and his wife before he took office, challenging Dina Matos McGreevey's assertion that she was naive about her husband's sexual exploits.

The aide, Theodore Pedersen, said he and the couple even had a nickname for the weekly romps, from 1999 to 2001, that typically began with dinner at T.G.I. Friday's and ended with a threesome at McGreevey's condo in Woodbridge.

They called them "Friday Night Specials," according to Pedersen.

Pedersen described the encounters during an interview with The Star-Ledger. He said he wanted to refute the innocent image that Matos McGreevey has projected - both during the couple's ongoing divorce battle and in interviews she gave after New York Gov. Eliot Spitzer resigned last week in a sex scandal. He said he was also incensed by her portrayal of herself as an unsuspecting wife in her book: "Silent Partner: A Memoir of My Marriage."


"I wanted to get this out now because it was so offensive to me that she goes on television playing the victim," Pedersen said. "She's trying to make this a payday for herself. She should have told the truth about the three of us."

A sex scandal with a tryst.

[EFerrari]

1. Tryst means secret meeting. You probably mean threesome. n/t

[seriousstan]

5. Tryst was used in the original headline and worked as a pun.

Did you have your humor surgically removed or did you kill it chemically?

[EFerrari]

10. There are chemicals that can do that?

lol

[seriousstan]

14. I haven't found it yet, but I am willing to continue searching.

[EFerrari]

18. Sorry, serious. Puns are not my specialty. Maybe there's a chemical for that.

:)

[seriousstan]

21. My poor hearing actual lets me hear puns where none are present.

Go figure, the wasted mind is a terrible thing.

[EFerrari]

22. That's actually a rare talent. You may enjoy this guy:

[seriousstan]

29. Thank you. That is really humorous.

It reminds me of the Reader's Digest jokes that were about real life experiences.

[babylonsister]

11. Can you be any snottier? nt

[seriousstan]

13. Yes I can. At least sfexpat got the idea that this is all humor.

Perhaps you should take a clue from her response to the same snotty reply.

[babylonsister]

16. Good to know. nt

[EFerrari]

19. It was my bad reading. Sorry. n/t

[WinkyDink]

55. My dictionary (American Heritage) says nothing about "secret".

[tachyon]

2. I always miss out on all the good kinky stuff.

:crazy:

[ben_meyers]

3. More than I needed to know,

But an obvious setup.

[seriousstan]

7. What setup? The driver just thought the guy was getting a raw deal in a divorce trial.

Explain your setup theory.

[JackBeck]

4. "I think he's bisexual."

http://wcbstv.com/topstories/gov.james.e.2.244015.html

"I'm not in denial, but I don't think he's simply gay. I think he's bisexual," she said. "I mean, he was married twice. He has two children. And, you know, I never saw him checking out men, but I certainly saw him checking out women."

[MrsBrady]

25. i heard her say somethign like that on her Oprah interview n/t

[JackBeck]

45. I did, too.

That's why I went to look for a source.

I'm surprised you're the only one to respond to my post.

You'd think more would follow the lead.

Continue to listen to your intuition.

[belpejic]

6. Sweet! Go Jimmy! nt

[dailykoff]

8. hoo boy.

Jim and Eliot can start a band called "kick me I'm stupid."

[Bluzmann57]

9. One question occurs

Who cares? They didn't send kids out to die for nothing. So what is the difference? They will have to deal with each other and I don't care.

[seriousstan]

12. Then why reply? Just trying to get your post count up or something?

I posted because I thought it had an interesting tweak to it.

[Bluzmann57]

26. Oh.

Whatever. I don't really give a rats ass about my post count, I was just asking a question. Never mind then. No more posts on this subject. Have a nice evening.

[Myrina]

75. My thought exactly -- its their private business.

Why turn it into a televised pissing match?

Is he jealous of all the coverage Spitzer's getting? Or is it an issue in the divorce/custody settlement stuff?

:shrug:

[RFK_Democrat]

15. How honorable that he didn't point that out at the time.

He let her be the victim. It would've taken some heat off of him.

[Tandalayo_Scheisskopf]

17. JimmyMack is an idiot.

Dina Mattos McGreevey is greedy and won't get off the stage.

Welcome to New Jersey. Is this where I am supposed to act surprised and shocked?

[dailykoff]

20. this thread needs a pic:

[Thickasabrick]

23. Who is that little kid in the middle?

[dailykoff]

24. Lucky Pierre.

[saigon68]

27. This is a Nasty thread

[AngryAmish]

28. That is totally hot

[Quantess]

30. Self-delete.

I mis-read.

[JI7]

31. i thought she knew he was gay also , but she seems really hurt by everything

and i kind of believe her when i hear her now.

i think it could also be that while she knew he was gay he would still be faithful to her and not embarrass her like this.

i'm not sure i believe the 3 way thing since Jim would have brought it up long time ago if it were true.

[seriousstan]

32. The trial will decide. This guy is the first witness.

I have long ago given up on being surprised at peoples sexual proclivities.

[struggle4progress]

33. Private citizens: so why not just leave em alone?

[seriousstan]

35. Like Britney?

[struggle4progress]

39. Britney who?

[seriousstan]

42. Which cave do you live in? You must have a computer and the intertubes.

Have you evr heard of Google? It is a website.

[struggle4progress]

44. Website? No thanks: I'm trying to reduce the number of spiders in my house

[brentspeak]

34. Uh, sure, right.

Something tells me this guy is being paid to lie.

[seriousstan]

36. Would that be the lack of any evidence or motive?

[brentspeak]

37. McGreevey and his wife are in the middle of a divorce

[seriousstan]

38. Correct...continue.

[brentspeak]

41. Isn't that Mick Jagger in "Freejack"?

But as for this lurid article, I'm not buying it.

[JackBeck]

47. "I think he's bisexual."

http://wcbstv.com/topstories/gov.james.e.2.244015.html

Any questions?

[Eric Condon]

40. I definitely think we're not giving enough credit

to the fact that they consistently had dinner at T.G.I. Friday's. Seriously? Is that the best a governor can do?

I bet Spitzer would at least spring for Benihana.

[SoCalDem]

43. or the Olive Garden

:rofl:

[JackBeck]

46. Try to vet some facts before trying to make a "funny".

He wasn't "governor" when these alleged dates happened.

You need a better writer.

[saracat]

48. What possible reason could anyone have for posring this? Pderson is clearly a little creep

tryong to damage Dina matos because she is going through a divorce and she stood up for Spitzer's wife.

[JackBeck]

49. Dina is on record

Saying that Jim was bisexual.

She's playing the game as much as he is.

[saracat]

51. Of course she would say that.She has a child with him, but this article is just degarding her

for its own sake and to make McGreevey, who is slime , look better.

[JackBeck]

50. Dina's on record saying he's bisexual.

Where's the drama?

[np33]

62. Where was this guy

when this scandal first dropped or even Matos came out with her book? I just get the feeling that he saw an opportunity to make himself some money. Normally I wouldn't care what anyone does in their bedroom but they have young children and so is it really necessary for this guy to air more dirty laundry because if its about *ahem* finding the truth then testify in the divorce case and be done with it.

[devilgrrl]

52. The United States is like a huge Jr. High School these days.

"I boffed his wife!!!"

:wtf:

I wonder what will be going on behind the curtain while this one hogs up airtime?

[LeftHander]

54. lol - U.S. Politician...your friend...with benefits....nt

[Chovexani]

53. Who gives a shit?

Hint: if you think this is lurid, you really need to get out more.

[WinkyDink]

56. If you don't think this is lurid, you've gone out far too much, and to really sleazy places.

[Chovexani]

57. Why thank you.

I'll take that as a compliment. :)

[AlCzervik]

58. why is it anybody's business but theirs and do you actually believe it?

[La Lioness Priyanka]

59. yeah or we have a SEX life of our own and dont care about those of others

you are so full of it

[SarahB]

60. I'd agree

Those who are well-laid, tend to keep our noses and judgments out of the private lives of others.

[np33]

76. Was it necessary

For this guy to share all of this with the media? I'm all for people being allowed to do as they please in their bedrooms. But why not just keep it in the bedroom regardless if your having gay sex, threesomes, or plain vanilla martial sex.

[RainDog]

61. nothing that offends patriarchal notions of sexual acts

should EVER be allowed!! no more oral sex!! only vaginal penetration, face to face, man on top! no gay sex! no sex outside of marriage! no birth control for sex outside of marriage!

and what about this slippery slope thing... next thing you know, it's gonna be dog on man sex because sex is bestial anyway, unless you do it and breed.

...it's all noise. so many more important things going on in this country --but how much tv time do you think this will get compared to important issues? it's TITILLATION. I like a subject header I read here from yesterday... how did Clinton's blow job effect America's standing in the world? jobs, economy, war... but who cares if someone is engaging in sexual acts.

[Zhade]

77. What is this prudery?

Seriously? Pfft.
