Another Hypocritical Family Values Christian Leader Surfaces
Are any of these people ever, ever honest? I suppose the question itself is moot since we all know the answer. But here is another example of the hypocrisy that surrounds the "Family Values" crowd so embraced by the Republican Party and King George.DENVER - A gay man and admitted male escort claims he has had an ongoing sexual relationship with a well-known Evangelical pastor from Colorado Springs. Mike Jones told 9 Wants to Know Investigative Reporter Paula Woodward he has had a "sexual business" relationship with Pastor Ted Haggard for the past three years. Haggard is the founder and senior leader of the New Life Church in Colorado Springs. The church has 14,000 members. He is also president of the National Association of Evangelicals, an organization that represents millions of people. Haggard is married with five children and an outspoken critic of gay marriage.Of course the Reverend denied it claiming it was the result of election year politics. In an exclusive interview Wednesday night, Haggard denied the claims and told 9NEWS he is prepared for his own church to investigate them. "I did not have a homosexual relationship with a man in Denver," said Haggard. "I am steady with my wife. I'm faithful to my wife." "I don't know if this is election year politics or if this has to do with the marriage amendment or what it is, but I'm not even the guy who will investigate it or question it. I don't know what the dynamics are, but this independent group will come in and do that."Ok, so as usual first comes the denial, then comes the weeping and knashing of teeth, and finally admittance to a clinic for treatment of alcohol abuse. I this keeps up, sessions of Congress and church services will have to be held in a substance abuse facility. Read on..... |
