re: Comparing a double-murderer to someone who might have smoked meth or had gay sex? Wow, I guess hypocrisy is indeed a worse sin than murder. Larry Flynt would be proud.

OJ wasn't convicted. Didn't you just say "Why do you want to believe the worst?".

Mani, > You are saying Haggard is a victim of a guy trying to get his "15 minutes of fame". Please tell me you are just trying to get a reaction here and that was not a serious post.

I don't like to repeat myself, but I guess you're not a regular. Haggard's accuser already failed a lie detector test.


He failed part of it and the administrator stated that his state of exhaustion might have contributed to the that failure.

But apparently you are not as up to date as Mani. Haggard has admitted to a massage and purchasing drugs. His BOD fired him for "sexual misconduct". Do you really need to have it spelled out for you? Mani doesn't. I don't. Most adults in this country don't. What is your problem?

It would have been easy for Haggard to just deny everything and survive Clinton-style, but instead he admits to borderline behavior.

Borderline? Adultery and illegal drug use is considered border line for you. Wow! I am impressed with your 'liberal' ways.

Anyone wrestling with temptation will step over the line quite a few times or try and come close to the line without "crossing" it. That's still bad enough for a leader of a national religious organization. Why do you want to believe the worst?

Okay. Now its getting juicy. What have YOU done? Oh wait.....I mean, what have you been tempted by? ;-)

Oh, come ON Tenchy! Pretty much the entire country thinks Haggard had freaky, tweakin' butt sex with the gay hooker. What does it say that Haggard was even TEMPTED to have freaky butt sex and smoking meth? I don't know anyone ELSE so tempted. Are YOU tempted by meth and freaky gay butt sex? It's only you weepy, "victimized" evangelicals that give him any cred at all.

The gay hooker/meht dealer seems a lot more trustworthy and reliable!

Oh, and the lie detector test was inconclusive. It "indicated" that the hooker was being "deceptive" about having sex with Haggard. The hooker was surprised by the result, and said that he was very tired when he took the test, which the examiner agreed might have affected the result. He'll be taking it again.

Has HAGGARD taken a lie detector test? WILL he?
