Worst. Denial. Ever.

So Ted Haggard NOW admits that be bought Crystal Meth from a Male Prostitue, BUT he didn't have sex with him and he didn't use the Meth. In fact, he threw the meth away.

That makes Clinton's "I didn't inhale" positively statesmenlike!
"I didn't Tweak"

I'm sure he just wanted a "massage" too.

Honestly, whenever I hear a story like this, I become very sad. Yes...there's a part of me that enjoys a hypocrite getting it in the end (pun intended), but it saddens me that someone could hate themselves so much.

But now...I'm just angry that not only does he hate us...he thinks we're stupid as well.

F*ck off, Mary. Ya did it. Ya got caught. The life you've built for yourself is over. Walk in truth.

Oprah's bookers are on the phone, arranging for him to appear on her show in...say, 6 months to a year.

I don't know, but they found this list hanging on his refrigerator:

Sudafed

I wonder what it means?

So first he says the entire thing isn't true.

Then he says he's never even heard of this guy.

Then he says he has heard of him, but only because the hotel recommended him for a massage, but never called him.

Then he says he did call the guy, but it was for drugs and he didn't use them.

And yet his supporters still defend him 100%. I don't get people.

The more I hear this guy talk the more I laugh. His defense is that he called an escort to his hotel to "Give him a message" and the escort offered to sell him Meth so he bought some, but threw it away?

So, even if we take him at his word, what do you think his wife would think about him calling an escort to his hotel room for a massage? What an odd thing for a heterosexual christian man to do! And to be curious about meth?

"You know young man, I hear a lot about this new drug Meth you homosexuals are taking these days! What's it like?"

"Well, sir, I could get you some so you could try it. I think it might help you in your christian mission."

"Indeed!? Give me $100 worth-- no, make it $200. I am REALLY curious!"

Joe, it is hilarious. What married man would go to a hotel room with anyone other than his wife.

This reminds me of the great summer of 1990 when Mayor Barry was smoking crack in the hotel. I was in DC at the time and he would come on TV every other day counting his days of sobriety.

Maybe Haggard can go on the 700 Club and count his days without any dick!

Joe, Thank god I checked the board before I posted, because I was going to post exactly the same thoughts: how, pray tell, does the conversation during a legit massage turn to "can you score some meth for me?"

And the bigger question: Haggard must really be an idiot if he didn't think that question through.

And although I have never heard of this guy he is the head of a HUGE church! Millions of members! I would think this guy is used to being recognized. If I were in his place, I'd think twice before asking a random hotel manager to recommend a male masseuse, much less hire one or score meth from him.

He was featured in the A&E film JESUS CAMP.

He kept using the word 'fabulous' over and over. I arched an eyebrow.

Robbie (how the hell are you, by the way? :) )

I remember seeing him on the Barbara Walters' special last year -- something about "How Do You Get To Heaven>". She interviewed people of all faiths and creeds for their particular views. It was very interesting.

Anyway, Haggard and Barbara sat down for a little chatnik. All during his discourse, he didn't just ping....there was a big freakin' GONG going off. At the time, I dismissed it as too much time on his knees.

Little did I know...

Fabulous? That is a tip off. If someone describes him as "Flamboyant" that is the giveaway.

You know, "Flamboyant fitness guru Richard Simmons...."

"Flamboyant musician Elton John...."

"Flamboyant congressman Mark Foley..."

I'm doin' fine and dandy, Flip!

The 'fabulous' thing was just too dead on...but I thought, I guess the straights are embracing it, too. Like manscaping and Lillet.

He only bought the meth in order to make sure there was less for the children to buy later.

And he only wanted the massage to make sure he's relaxed and primed to give more sermons in the name of God.

Duh.

Ah yes! "Get Meth off the street one gram at a time!"

And every minute that hustler spends in his hotel room is a minute he's not having sex with someone else!

SG,

A true classic that will NEVER get old, right?

Oh...and made he was getting a SINUS massage and needed the meth cause every CVS in Denver had run out of Sudafed. It's just as plausible.
