Punisher, you are right on when you wrote:
“Ted, if the idea gives you a stir, then look me up. Come home to Dad, and face the music. Ted, I ain’t gonna judge ya, ’cause that would be redundant. I’m just gonna beat the tar outta ya. You know it’s what you deserve, and you know it’s what you need.”

You know just what Teddy needs. Fundies love corporal punishment. They love taking a belts to their boys and putting fire in their butts. They love it. They’ll tell you it’s their “Christain duty” and will quote scripture to back up their sadistic nature. They will say they do it because the ‘luv’ im.

So, lets give the bad boy Teddy what these Bible quoting fundies love to give their boys. Lets take him into the bedroom or out to the wood shed, take up a good thick razor strap and set that bad boy’s butt on fire! Lets do it like a real fundies. We’ll deliver full force blows to his expose up turned bigot butt. Indeed “their will be great wailing and gnashing of teeth!” Just like the fundies want for everyone of us who don’t belong to their narrow minded flock. Let’s ‘luvingly’ punish the boi so that his butt burns for a whole week and he won’t be able to set down.

A bigot is an ignorant self-righteous hypocrite. Maybe one day he will realize that hypocrisy and bigotry are just not acceptable for Christains or anyone in a civilized society.

Haggard exploited Mike Jones and God knows how many others for his own sexual pleasure. While older gay men should be mentors to younger gay men learning to accept and deal with their sexuality they all too often exploit them for their own sexual pleasure. That is a sad truth.

Gay and lesbian men and women are gay and lesbian for life. It is not a choice and there is no “repairative therapy” for what these bigots call “sexual brokenness.” No laying on of hands, prayers or “casting out” so called “demons or devils” will make a gay or lesbian person into a heterosexual. Organizations such as Exodus International are a farce and just further frustrates gays and lesbians in achieving a healthy self acceptance of themselves as they are. These so called therapies quite often do serious damage to those they claim to help. They are not founded on any credible research or science and are not recognized by the American Psychiatric Association. Haggard and other closeted bigots need to stop fooling themselves and stop pretending that religion can cure homosexuality.

And here is Mike Jones’ open letter to Haggard, which he submitted to Oprah’s show:

Dear Ted:

You have publicly apologized to me. I accept your apology. However, I cannot speak for the millions of proud gay men and women. I hope you understand the anger and sadness that overcame me once I discovered who you were. As a gay man who has fought for gay rights since my early teens, continually being treated as a 2nd class citizen, has never set well with me. I have second guessed myself so many times on my actions that I too have been brought to tears and loneliness. I believe you are a good person and could do so much more, my only sadness is that you have decided to make your comeback so publicly that is will open old wounds and new ones. My best to you and your family.

Sincerely,

Mike Jones

Wasn’t this queen a known TRICK who wrote a book afterwards so she doesn’t have to work Gay and DL Men for $$$$$$? This queen needs to go on she got her 15 minutes of fame and once the coins is used for Meth. She’ll be back tricking again as a 2nd class citizen. Miss Mike is no positive influence for this community. And as for Pastor’s letter we don’t know how true any of it is. I believe he is just trying to further DAMAGE him so he would never return that’s the church for ya! HOMOPHOBIC and these are not African Americans curch goers.

That the wify would still be with this creep, is sufficient proof to me that she suffers from a Christian Martyr complex and loves the shame, humiliation and suffering that this man is bringing down on her and his family.

Any self-respecting woman in her right mind would grab up the kids, pack their bags and distance herself from this mentally deranged dick head. he’s damaged goods.

Self-deceiving liars like this man will only keep on sucking people into their drama and draging everyone down with him.

I hope the kid was under age so they can lock this destroyer of lives up for the rest of his natural life. He’s a menace to mankind.

Stupid bastard. I can’t imagine living a life like his where I couldn’t act on my sexuality. That’s too crazy of a prison.

You obviously are not trans.

Anyway, to the rest of you: I can’t speak for everyone, but I feel full of wicked glee to watch this man suffer so in the harsh light of public humiliation. I can’t help it, I just enjoy it too much. I’m also curious, in a twisted way, to see just what Punisher will do, mainly because I’m picturing Punisher as a cross between Jason Statham and MORE Jason Statham.

Oh,but wait!?

He doesnt’ do Black?

Apparently, Levitucials 18:22 do not apply when you are on hard and like white boys, especially if they have long pretty hair, thin, clean, “washed” bodies and do not smell “scorched” or “burnt.”

What a fucking liberty.

Sounds to me like the fundies might try to make this into a moral panic. ‘Cause heaven forbid there be MORE of their leaders into the man-on-man sex thang!

You do find some doozys when you seek teh Gay.

On the creep front, I recall watching a video of Haggard talking about closeted homosexuals, in which he gleefully made an implicit threat to expose them in his church. I think the man is deeply conflicted, and has a major punishment fantasy kicking around his lizard brain.

And you know what, Ted? Trust me, not only do I know what you want and need but I am well equipped to give it to you. Who knows, maybe we’ll meet up on the trail. I promise not to tell anyone.

It isn’t clear from this that all the reports were about Rev. Haggard. Was this an inadvertent omission, or did others also reportedly engage in “inappropriate behavior?”

Why anyone would be shocked by this is beyond me. Just looking at the dude you can tell he loves touching children.
