Hypocrisy for jeee-zus-ah

Are
all the worst
gay-bashers secretly gay themselves? It sure seems
that way to me. The latest hypocrite to come crashing
to earth is the right reverend Ted
Haggard.
The president of the National Association of Evangelicals resigned Thursday after denying an accusation by a male prostitute that the pastor paid him for sex over three years.
The Rev. Ted Haggard said he is also temporarily stepping aside from the pulpit of his church in Colorado Springs, Colorado, pending an internal investigation by the church.
He denies the accusations, says he’s faithful to his wife etc... and then quits both his jobs and goes into seclusion. Not the actions I would expect from an innocent man. He’ll probably be checking into the same rehab facility as Mark Foley soon. Well at least James Dobson is still behind him.
Amid the furor over the allegations, Haggard received support from another prominent religious conservative leader, James Dobson, founder of Focus on the Family. It also is based in Colorado Springs.
"It is unconscionable that the legitimate news media would report a rumor like this based on nothing but one man's accusation," Dobson said in a written statement issued before Haggard's leave was announced.
"Ted Haggard is a friend of mine, and it appears someone is trying to damage his reputation as a way of influencing the outcome of Tuesday's election -- especially the vote on Colorado's marriage-protection amendment, which Ted strongly supports," Dobson said.
Yep, James Dobson is standing firmly behind him. hee hee
