I don't care who Ted Haggard schtups, or is schtupped by.
Aside: Conservatives, learn from this. I don't care what Haggard did in private, just as I don't care what Clinton did in private. It's called consistency. It's the opposite of the double standards that you use on a daily basis. You should try consistency sometime. It's a lot easier on the brain pan.
What I do care about is that Ted Haggard, and all of these evangelical hypocrites, try to lecture us about morality when they are obviously living in glass houses. It's simple. Keep your nose out of other people's business. Don't bash gays. Particularly when you are gay.
What I even find worse is when politicians moralize. We all know that all politicians are crooks. Hell, there are 18 Republican members of congress currently under indictment or on their way to prison. So they don't have any moral high ground to preach from. And even if they did, they shouldn't be preaching. They should be working. You know, fixing the country. Fixing health care. Fixing the quagmire in Iraq. Doing, you know, work. As opposed to being the "do nothing congress" that spends more time blowing hot air and attacking the patriotism of it's citizens than it actually does writing legislation that fixes anything.
Lesson here is, if you spend most of your time telling other people how to live their lives, you are probably a hypocrite, and you should spending your time fixing your own house instead of meddling with others.
