Okay, barring some monumental news, this will be the last Ted Haggard-related post of the day. We thought you guys may be interesting in Jack E. Jett‘s interview with Mike Jones, the little hooker that could (and did) bring down one of America’s top Evangelical leaders. You may remember Jett from his contribution to The Totally Frightful Issue. It’s worth noting that Jack offered us an insultingly short version of the aforementioned interview. It seems, however, that he prefers the wannabe-homos over at Radar. (Whatever, he’s probably just trying to get into Jeff Bercovici‘s pants. Slut.)
Anyway, it’s an “eye-opening” interview in which we learn that Haggie’s a bottom (as if we couldn’t figure it out), enjoys a nice muscle boy with a big cock (we know) and isn’t one for small talk (What? He’s made an entire career out of mindless chatter!):
JJ: Was Reverend Haggard kinky in bed?
MJ: I’m not going to comment too much on kinkiness, but I can say that he certainly did enjoy having sex with me.JJ: Would you call him vanilla?
MJ: Well, for the most part, I would use the term vanilla. But I guess every once in a while you could throw some chocolate in.JJ: Did he ever kiss you or act affectionately, or did he restrict his visits to sex?
MJ: No, we kissed.JJ: That’s very sweet.
MJ: [LAUGHS] Well, I aim to please.JJ: Did his personality change after you had sex?
MJ: I think sometimes there was some guilt, and he would get very quiet. Usually he’d just throw his clothes on and leave.
He was probably too busy thinking about how his soul would burn forever to make niceties. You gotta admit, it’s a pretty distracting concept.
Also, kudos to Jones for not delving into the kinky aspects of the sordid affair. Great restraint, kiddo! Obviously sex worker “Nicholas” was way off base when he derided you for betraying your client.
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.

In spite of the fact that Mike Jones was ( he claims to have quit) an escort (his choice of words) and drug dealer/facilator/probable user as well (seems unlikely that only the reverend was doing meth when they were having sex for 3 years), let’s not forget that this man has done us all a great service by exposing the hypocrisy of this one time leader of a 30 million strong Evangelical movement which works daily to denegrate who we are, discriminate against us and limit our rights and privileges as citizens. We need to do everything we can to encourage others to shed light on the state of our existence and our struggle as gay men. That is: The people who deign to do us the most harm are often closeted, self loathing gay men. Historically, Roy Cohn and J. Edgar Hoover come to mind. More recently, Marc Foley, David Dreir and possibly Ken Mehlman (if Bill Maher is to be believed) are but a few of the closeted leaders who work (in Foley’s case past tense) against us.
When in the recent interview with Radaronline.com, Mike Jones was asked: So no one from the Human Rights Campaign or The Gay and Lesbian Victory Fund has even called you? At the very least they could invite you to a chic cocktail party with David Geffen.
His response: I’d be happier if they bought me a loaf of bread and some peanut butter.

This guy, who I consider a hero, is broke, and has jeapordized his ability to support himself by doing something very courgeous which benefits us all. It would be great if there were a place or forum where we all could donate a little money to him…a reward for his great service. (Much the same way that MoveOn was able to raise $27million through small donations.) Maybe we could even start a fund to reward others for outing these enemies in our struggle for equality.
Just a thought.

first of all i would like to make it clear that i am not a “slut”. a slut would be someone successful in having a lot of sex. i consider myself more of a slut wannabe. daddy david h. will not let me near his pants, much less in them.
as a side note, i have interviewed many people in the sex biz. i cover the AVN awards every year. i have found that sex workers are FAR more open and honest than any celebrity or other pop culture figure. mike jones was not exception.
i too, am baffled that gay groups are giving out awards to
lance bass and not even giving mike jones a phone call.
i would like to find out more about what some of these organizations spend their money on. they make a shitload of it off of us. where does it go?
congratulations to daddy david h. my “dark place” is open for biz.

Whatever. Stop treating this guy like he is a hero. He is a fucking whore. The end.
