He organized against civil rights for gays and lesbians. This hypocrite joins the club of Swaggart, Clinton, Bennett, Bush Jr., Baker et al. What is up with these men who preach one thing while behaving otherwise? Swaggart visited sex workers. Clinton signed DOMA while cheating on his wife. Bennett gambled away millions as a self-appointed guardian of public morality. Bush lied to take the U.S. to war. Baker misspent millions donated to his and Tammy&#8217;s church. And these are the hypocrites who I can only recall early on Friday morning! To hell with the lot of them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Grumpy Vegan wants to feel pity for Ted Haggard, president of the National Association of Evangelicals and the Senior Pastor of New Life Church in Colorado Springs, Colorado, but can&#8217;t.
