Manna Dummy, not Massage

The Rev. Ted Haggard is apparently the GOP’s answer to John Kerry.

Man, that’s gotta rub you the wrong way…
First, you have Mark “what a page turner’ Foley and now a leader of the ‘Religious Right’ goes a little jerky on the Grand Old Party. What is the deal here?

In Foley’s case, the Priest, who was said to have molested Foley as a youth, denies they ever had sex. Merely some skinny-dipping and massage... In Haggard’s case, there was simply Meth and massage, no sex here, either. Well, so the Reverend says.

Massage seems to be the common denominator. It is nice when a Catholic Priest and a fundamentalist minister can agree on something; usually they are at odds.

Is it just me, or does it seem as if someone is just pulling our chains?

I’m amazed at the heights people will reach before they throw themselves to the ground. I could get into a long list of one-liners here, but it would seem pointless.

My fundamental belief here is that it is never a very good plan to put your trust in the hands of those who actually think they are on a mission from God.

In Haggard’s case, put anything in the hands of a male hooker with access to CNN.

I will be the first to say I am in no position to think of myself as a better or less flawed person. That being said, I did not influence a ton of votes based on family values.

Now the part I really don’t get. Meth!!! Are you out of your freaking mind? Chris Rock, once said “Meth was the white man’s crack.” They don’t got much whiter than old Ted.

Have you seen what this crap is made of? I suspect the “I really need a massage” thing had been brewing for quite sometime with Rev. Ted. But Meth? Where the hell does that come from?

Once again, you find that by using a middleman to talk and seek advice from your God, you might lose sight of the simplicity of belief.

Sometimes it is much easier to simply go… directly to the source.
