Haggard climbs out from under the rent boy and back into pulpit

[pgodbold]

Mr. Haggard was forced to resign nearly four years ago as president of the politically powerful National Association of Evangelicals and to step down from the megachurch he founded, after admitting that he had bought methamphetamine from, and had a sexual encounter with, a gay prostitute. He's back in the saddle again!

1. 'Heard a radio host refer to Haggard as a "Crystal Methodist."

Works for me.

And gayer than ever

3. er...when you say "back in the saddle...."

Should we ASK what you actually mean by that in this case?

4. Amazing isn't it and the simple folks keep giving him money

5. "I over-repented," he said. Sort of says it all, imo. This schmuck is still in denial.

He will go down again, guaranteed. Just like Jimmy Swaggert. Swaggert gives a better show though with the crying and waving the big bible around and all.
