Is that your final answer?

Dude ... you might want to pick a position:

Another evangelist gets hoisted by his own petard .... What's being done to this evangelical is despicable ... However, there's nothing worse than gays who are in the closet and yet still pursue anti-gay policies.

The Blogging Tories: Because schizophrenic cognitive dissonance isn't just a temporary aberration, it's a way of life.

TAIL-WAGGING UPDATE: Outrageous, I say -- the "despicable" accusations being made against a man of God and ... and ... um ... hello (emphasis added):

Haggard said in a statement he could "not continue to minister under the cloud created by the accusations."

... His three-paragraph statement contained no denial of the allegations by 49-year-old Mike Jones, of Denver.

... Haggard, 50, initially denied the allegations, telling 9News Wednesday night that "I've never had a gay relationship with anybody, and I'm steady with my wife. I'm faithful to my wife."

But KKTV in Colorado Springs reported that New Life Associate Senior Pastor Ross Parsley told a meeting of church elders Thursday night that Haggard had met with the church's overseers earlier in the day and "had admitted to some indiscretions."

Parsley told the elders that Haggard had said some of the allegations were true, but not all of them.

See, Fred, that's why you have to give these things a couple of days to shake out. Otherwise, you end up laying your dick on the table and, eventually, everyone comes by to give it a good whack.

Patience is a virtue. Try to remember that.
