I was watching Catholic League President, William Donohue, on one of the talking-head programs the other day denouncing Hollywood's latest, the Da Vinci Code. Hello? It's fiction! Although when I look at the artist's masterpiece, the Last Supper, I either see Mary Magdelene or someone who could have orginated the church's sex scandal. But what I'm saving my boycotting dollars and energy is for the new tome purported to be by our former governor Jim, errr James McGreevey. At least Christy Whitman's My Party Too will have company on library shelves marked "self-serving revisionist histrionics."

It's hard to imagine ole Jimmy coming clean, let alone finally telling us what happened in Cape May. That would be the only interesting thing to read. Everything else we already know: he hired his "boyfriend" as homeland security advisor; he was bought and paid for by special interests not to mention party bosses; he talked about the environment and then signed into law the worse "fast track" pro-development bill he could muster; and he couldn't tell the truth if his life depended on it. In fact, if he was on the old hit TV show, Lost In Space, and he was charged with protecting Planet Veracity, the Robot would be spinning his head yelling, "Danger, Warning Will Robinson" and not just for other reasons. Speaking of, inside word is that, like the Da Vinci Code, Tom Hanks is being courted to play McG in the movie deal. The entire male cast of Dawson's Creek will play his administrative staff (if they haven't gotten any older). Starr Jones was originally going to play Regina Thomas, but unless she goes off her diet, she's out. In the end, we can only hope the movie will be panned like the Code.
