		NEW YORK – A former aide to New Jersey Gov. James E. McGreevey who claims he was sexually harassed by the governor says he won't sue, apparently eliminating the prospect of an embarrassing court fight.
		McGreevey, 47, announced Aug. 12 that he is gay and would resign from office Nov. 15 because he had an extramarital affair with a man. The governor, who has said the relationship was consensual, has not named the other man with whom he was involved.
		But Cipel, McGreevey's former homeland security adviser, denied he is gay and insisted that he had been sexually harassed and pressured by the governor from the time he first went to work for him.

		McGreevey's resignation included an apparently heartfelt confession that he was a "gay American" and an admission of an extramarital affair with a man whom McGreevey did not identify, but the rest of the state knows to be Golan Cipel, McGreevey's erstwhile "homeland security advisor".
		McGreevey's administration is corrupt to the core, and it has nothing to do with his admission of his homosexuality.
		McGreevey had to resign and disclose his affair because it would have been disclosed imminently, perhaps in connection with a sexual harrassment lawsuit.
