New York Governor David Paterson was spotted over the weekend having lunch at a New Jersey restaurant with some non-wife woman, which is, if not downright illegal, then certainly in poor taste! Where does this man get off, having lunches in New Jersey all the time?
The office of the governor of New York was previously held by such paragons of virtue as Rudy Giuliani, a thrice-married adulterer who loved to hang out with known crooks, [Oh wait he was just the mayor! But he was Official Governor of 9/11, which counts. -- Ed.] and Eliot Spitzer, the crusading patron saint of prostitutes. Governor Paterson has pooped all over their noble legacy by taking a woman to lunch:
State lawmakers yesterday fumed over Gov. Paterson’s cozy weekend lunch date, saying New York’s chief executive should be working on looming deadlines instead of dallying with a pretty female pal.
As The Post reported yesterday, Paterson was spotted having an intimate lunch at the celeb-friendly River Palm Terrace in Edgewater, NJ, with an attractive woman who was not his wife.
Sounds pretty hot! More juicy details, please:
Waiter Tony Martinez, 33, said Paterson and his lady friend sat 4 feet apart, and the only physical contact he saw was a handshake in greeting.
“They weren’t holding hands. They weren’t being inappropriate in any way,” Martinez said.
This man is simply the worst governor ever in the history of governors dining in New Jersey restaurants, except for maybe Jim McGreevey, who at least had the decency to take his wife along with him for meals with the other person he was fucking.

No dice on this story.
If Star magazine didn’t say they were “canoodling”, it didn’t happen.
Banging floozies in Jersery is best done in diners. Everyone knows that. Sheesh.
Shoulda worn his shades so he could remain incognito.
A least she was a looker.
I thought it was customary for NJ governors to go to TGI Fridays pre-trist.
Rudy Giuliani hasn’t “held” the office of governor of NY–he “will hold” the office of governor of NY in 2010 once everyone remembers how very special our time with him during 9-11 was. Just kidding–even Rudy’s not desperate enough to take that job.
Everyone know that, in a New jersey diner, you can’t get hash browns after 11:00am.
In his defense, the voices of his wife and the woman he had lunch with were exactly the same.
So, according to the NY Republicans & the Post, it’s impossible for people of the opposite sex to eat together without sex involved. Wait, these are misogynistic right-wing assholes, former fratboy types; of course they’d think that men and women cannot be friends with each other, only with members of their own sex. And of course they’d try to spin even the most innocuous thing a Democrat does as if it was a scandal no matter how disingenuous they must be to do so.
Geeze, he shoulda paid three grand for a prostitute instead of having lunch with a friend — there would’ve been less of an uproar.
Mrs. Patterson: “He won’t even look at me anymore.”
I hope he went all Helen Keller on her ass.
I’m surprised it didn’t occur earlier to David Paterson that a sex scandal might just be the thing to finally make him interesting. It’s not working, but nice try!
You know, one of the few blessings of being blind is that the looks of the chick you are with really wouldn’t matter, as long as she smells good and ain’t too damn big (unless you go BBW) ya got it made! It would be like being drunk all the time only without the nausea & self-loathing in the morning when you see what you went down on last night…
[re=496265]Buzz Feedback[/re]: Just sprayed keyboard with coffee, dammit! Well done.
[re=496257]JMP[/re]: I was gonna say; if “Having Lunch With” = “Boning,” then I was ripping up some pretty huge quantities of sweet college intern ass back in my TV days.
Didn’t realize I was such a raging stud.
Love is blind.
What the hell does it matter if she was attractive? He’s BLIND!
If I ever saw a bride with “I can’t believe I’m doing this” written all over her face, that picture is it.
I hear the Appalachian Trail passes through Jersey somewhere -
[re=496274]plowman[/re]: I was kinda thinking the same thing
Is that nice lady giving that man a handjob bleow frame? Because that’s what his face tells me.
He’s got that Mahmoud Ahmadinejad thing going on somehow…
[re=496257]JMP[/re]: To be fair, if a Republican has dinner with someone of the same sex we often think their probably in the closet. But that’s because a lot of the time they are. To be fair.
Which one has the more vacant stare?
