Like many Republicans, Haggard preaches one thing and does another..for some reason, this seems to apply particularly in the area of sex.

And I thought all the GOP fundies believed you weren't supposed to lie down with another man, or whatever that scripture BS claims. Now I'm really confused.



Disgraced pastor faces more gay sex accusations (http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20090124/ap_on_re/rel_haggard_new_allegations - broken link)
That is one advantage to being a Democrat/liberal, since you stand for nothing you can't be a hypocrite, since you have no morals, you can't commit anything immoral. It must be great to be a Democrat.

BTW this guy is an immoral hypocrite, there are a lot of them in the world, you know?

Yeah..and an overwhelming majority of them are Republicans.

Look at all these Republican sex offenders when they're not molesting someone, they're busy trying to tell everyone else how to live..no doubt quoting scripture all the while.

Au contraire, liberals stand for truth, justice and the AW. Is it a conservative sensibility that encourages gay people to come out of the closet and be free to live their lives in peace? Is it the Republican Party that's comfortable with out gay people? Ahhhh...no. The Republican Party is the neurotic, hypocritical, bottled-up closet party, and that's what ALWAYS sinks you, every time. You rise on self-righteousness and piety and you fall when your hypocrisies invalidate everything you say and do to a whole new generation.

Goodness, excuse me. </rant>

but they have jesus to forgive them, it is ok to molest little boys, kill innocent people and deny health care to people, as long as you have jesus to forgive you


problem is democrats dont have jesus so even if they are good people they are still going to hell

The TRULY sad thing about this situation is that when Bush had two SCOTUS vacancies to fill, Karl Rove was on the phone, almost weekly, with James Dobson and Ted Haggard, so the GOP could wire into the fundie vote for their own political purposes. Now we know the sort of people who were advising Rove and Bush. We are the laughing stock of the world for these sorts of things done by the Bush crowd. James Dobson tried to do a 3-week miracle cure on Ted, but that joke ended quickly and they hustled Ted out of town and Dobson washed his hands of him and never spoke his name again (its not good for fund-raising, ya know).

Here are some links for those who want to read more of this sordid tale:
