Something Stinks

Caught this little tidbit this morning. It could amount to nothing or it could turn out to be something big. I’m going to keep an eye on this one.

I mean, how great would it be if Ted Haggard, the homophobic pastor of one of the nation’s most successful mega-churches—a guy who’s president of the National Association of Evangelicals (NAE), was voted one of “The 25 Most Influential Evangelicals in America” by Time, and who participates in a weekly conference call with the White House—turned out to be a closeted homosexual who carried on a three-year affair with a male prostitute?

The former escort, Mike Jones, called into a Denver radio show (KHOW 630 AM) last week during a segment on same-sex marriage—Colorado will vote on a constitutional amendment banning same-sex marriage on November 7—and during the course of the conversation, he explained that most of his clients (surprise, surprise!) were married men, some of them prominent (conservative) politicians and clergy, though he always exercised the utmost professional discretion.

He was later interviewed by Denver’s KUSA 9News, explaining that he chose to come forward with his story because of the hypocrisy demonstrated by closeted politicians and clergy who pay to have gay sex and then, as soon as they’ve zipped up, turn around and attack the GLBT community and work to undermine the rights of GLBT Americans.

Haggard has vehemently denied the allegations. Jones, who claims to have voicemail messages and correspondence from Haggard, has offered to undergo a polygraph test on the air this Friday. Stay tuned.

The fun part is that Silvio had commented way back once when he saw him on TV, "this guy is gay", and I said "no way".

marcelo-
too funny. i thought his photo looked very gay. it's a damn shame. he's a handsome guy, obviously motivated and talented-- he could have been happy.

it's not just that religion fucked him up and kept him tortured in the closet; by the time this is over, many other lives are going to be destroyed because of his deception and hypocrisy.

C'mon the guy is gayer than a pink flamingo. In fact he looks so femme I would definetely NOT do him.
It serves right all those raving hypocrites who destroy people's lives, hoarding huge fortunes in the process, to be outed and exposed for the fuck-ups that they really are. I fervently hope that the archbishop of the greek church will be the next in line.
