Cryan responds to Wilson’s “tirade"
By Matt Friedman | May 23rd, 2007 - 4:01pm
Democratic State Chairman/Assemblyman Joe Cryan fired back at Tom Wilson this afternoon over the GOP Chairman’s vow to sue Governor Corzine to release private email account correspondence with former flame/union leader Carla Katz. Cryan said that Wilson was going on a “tirade.”
“Mr Wilson is doing nothing better than engaging in political voyeurism,” said Cryan.
Cryan responded to Wilson’s allegations by pointing to a bi-partisan ethics review that absolved Corzine from any wrongdoing.
"The Republican chairman wants to ignore their thorough review, he wants to ignore their conclusions and he seems determined to ignore the truth. He's also ignoring the issues of importance to New Jersey,” said Cryan.

cryan all the way to jail
Enough already with the liberal political vulgarity and porno show.
Katz screwed Corzine and Corzine is screwing
the NJ taxpayer. This is political voyeurism
and bad political theater at its worst.
Lets sweep em all out in November.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Thanks for the laugh, Networker. With Tom Wilson at the helm of the GOP, the Democratic majority in both houses is completely safe.
Cryan's Just Jealous
Cryan is simply a jealous hot-headed Irishman. Corzine is willing to dump $6 million and a new hous on his former squeeze, but only willing to give Cryan's former squeeze $5,000 for bail money.
hey, maybe karen Golding could go to the slammer with Cryan's kid and Cryan could do some one stop visiting at the lock-up.
Cryan forgot to point out..
The "bi-partisan" ethics committee is two people Corzine appointed. With that said Wilson is doing this at perfect timing to make sure he doesn't lose his job.
At the risk of being flippant
Do you think that those assets that the Gov plans on selling belong to Carla Katz or the NJ Turnpike Authority? All kidding aside, this is a self-inflicted wound - dating someone you have business dealings with can be very messy - just ask Paul Wolfowitz.
