Wife Calls Nevada Gov (R) a 'Philandering Liar'

[Ichingcarpenter]

Nevada Gov. Jim Gibbons' still has two years left in office. But the practicing Mormon's divorce is getting nastier by the day, and many GOP operatives are getting more concerned about saving their party than his marriage.

The Las Vegas Sun reports on the latest in the court battle:

Wednesday's filing by Dawn Gibbons' attorney Cal Dunlap, a former district attorney who is said to love a public fight, is ostensibly an argument to open the now-sealed divorce filing. In fact, however, it's clearly part of an aggressive media strategy to paint the governor as a cold, philandering liar.

"Despite his disingenuous, shallow, and transparent protestations that his relationship with another man's wife is a mere friendship, his infatuation and involvement with the other woman is the real, concealed and undisclosed reason for his voluntary departure from the marriage," the court filing states.

Gibbons has been refusing to comment about the divorce proceedings. A judge has sealed the case, but Dawn Gibbon's attorney released her filings because of the "importance of the First Amendment and the public's right to have open access to the courts and court proceedings."

Cretin Nevada Gov. Jim Gibbons Having ‘Family Meeting’ To Get Divorced Wonkette

The divorce gossip is basically true! Halfway through a disastrous scandal-ridden first (possibly fictional) term as Nevada’s governor, rat-eyed corrupt paranoid-schizophrenic alcoholic cocktail-waitress-assaulting Jim Gibbons is having a “family meeting” this weekend to make a divorce deal with Dawn Gibbons, his long-suffering yet power-mad wife. This is according to the Reno Gazette Journal, quoting Gibbons’ own office. Congratulations, Dawn! Maybe your settlement will include that briefcase full of bribe money and poker chips the lobbyists brought you on the cruise ship!

1. They voted him in

The voters knew about him and his run in with his "girlfriend" in a parking garage when they voted him in. Sorry, but they got what they wanted. I hope it destroys their party for tying themselves to this guy.
