Which Moral Failures Is Ted Haggard Comparing Himself To?

By July 27, 2010 at 12:07am

“Tiger Woods needs to golf. Michael Vick needs to be playing football. Ted Haggard needs to be leading a church. … I over-repented.”

—Ted Haggard, burgeoning church leader, proudly comparing himself to two of pop culture’s most despicable sleazes [via]

    He can fumble his words all he likes, the longer he spends resisting his incurable sexuality and trying to find his way pleasing a congregation that hates who he truly is, then quite frankly he is living the punishment he is brought on his own head.
    He would suit being Opus Dei, somebody give him a whip already so he can beat himself

    He over-repented for panting over men. How sad.

    C’mon Ted: just say you’re an exgay and that Jeebus has fixxed you. It’s a huge lie of course but as long as people throw pesos in the passing plate at your church, you can keep up with the pretense that that whole methsex ordeal was just one “big misunderstanding”!
