"...And The Touching Leads To Sex"
That's a line from the song "Portions for Foxes" by Rilo Kiley. Given the current (and everchanging) situation of evangelical "leader" Ted Haggard, it's a good one.
After denying yesterday that he even knew his prostitute accuser, Haggard is today admitting to a least a couple of indiscretions. According to the Associated Press (via the Houston Chronicle), "Haggard admitted Friday that he bought methamphetamine and received a massage from a gay prostitute."
This is how it starts in these situations. He'll admit to a few things today. By the end of next week, he'll be wrapping himself in a rainbow flag and calling for compassion. What a damn hypocrite. I agree with the sentiment just expressed by Tucker Carlson on MSNBC. By having press conferences surrounded by his family, Haggad also earns himself the title of pig.
