Jim McGreevey condemned gay marriage when he was New Jersey’s governor, but yesterday he said he’d love to tie the knot with boyfriend Mark O’Donnell.

“My opposition was all about political positioning,” McGreevey said in a wide-ranging interview at the historic Plainfield, N.J., mansion he shares with his partner.

His uncompromising stance against gay marriage, McGreevey added, also stemmed from “a fear of being discovered” that he, too, was homosexual. “I had to prove to everyone that I was a red-blooded American male,” he said.

McGreevey, 49, opened up about what he called his life-long “pattern of deception” as his memoir, “The Confession,” hit bookstores and a previously taped interview with Oprah Winfrey aired on ABC.

Wouldn’t it be nice to find a politician to stand up and defend something, even if it didn’t suit their personal needs or agenda, but just because it’s the right thing to do?!
