Reading this ode to Ted Haggard is almost as riveting as, well, reading Ted Haggard chronicle his own weight loss ups and downs: From 187 pounds to 186 to 183 on July 4th and then back up to 186 thanks to all those hamburgers and potato salad. He’s the new Oprah. Preach.

Sorry, but I don’t believe that “hamburgers and potato salad” are what he REALLY wants to shove in his mouth…eating out of sexual frustration, dear?
It’s really as simple as dropping all the evengelical bullshit, accepting that “God”, or whatever, made you as a gay man, love youself, apologize to all the LGBT people your shenanigans have impacted, and then hit the gym and drop a few pounds. Easy squeezy….
Or stick with…Love the sinner, hate the sin, I guess, or some other Christian bullshit…and continue to pack on the pounds. Sad.

183Lbs to 187Lbs? My weight fluctuates by that much in a week.

Was this really necessary? Mocking someone’s weight shows that you’re no better when it comes to throwing around “hate” as well.

I’ll wait for him to show up on bear411 in a few years.

If his weight going from 183 to 187 is such a big deal, then ted’s more a queen than Zaza Napoli! Really, and I won’t be nice to ted until he sings “It’s Raining Men” on stage. Until then he is just another hateful closet case.

Dude… this man scares me to my bones. I’m so glad I came out every time I look at him. Maybe that’s wrong to say… but the oppression that man has to deal with… I could only imagine. No wonder he was doing meth.

@Duane: you said “Was this really necessary? Mocking someone’s weight shows that you’re no better when it comes to throwing around “hate” as well.”

Excuse me??? You are drawing a morla equivilence between Queerty mocking this guys obsession with his weight, and this closet cases statements that gays should not have civil rights and his advocating and pushing for Colorado’s anti-gay marriage ban? Are you kidding me? you may not think what Queerty did is “Nice” but comparing the two is like comparing a car running over your foot to a truck slamming into you at full speed.
Cam
Oh, and as for his weight….Ted really should update his gay reading list…Bridget Jones’s Diary already did the weight thing. đ

@shelby84:
I think the same thing every time I look at Teddy H. He is a man without a country right now. He is hated by gays and Christians alike. All he would ever have to do is be true to himself and I guarantee he would find support out there somewhere.
Bitch, Please!
Fat or not, I would still do him. Can you imagine all that guilt and sexual frustrations finally finding an outlet? You can tell he is a wild pig-bottom. Anyone remember that scene from “Midnight Cowboy” where the priest wanted to get fucked with a cross? Oh yeah! Haggard would be a freak behind closed doors.

@Bitch, Please!: yeah he would probably snap you dick off in his tight ass. be careful…
@Jake the libertarian: I mean, if he was open about it and not brainwashed wihth that silly rhetoric, I support him. I mean we all have our journey to get to get out the closet. Some people stay longer than others. I was trying to get out before I’m old and fat and no one would want me.

I’m sure he’ll drop the weight again once he goes on another one of his famous cock-n-crystal binges…
