yeah, we've been yakking about this on the Foley thread.

"Gay prostitute" too bulky; "male whore" is much more better to say.

Whoops! Shame on me for giving up on that one days ago...

Trayce, I know nada about the facts in this one but the fact that he stepped down before it went any further suggests that where there's smoke there's, er, fire.

And to make it weirder, the accuser failed a lie detector test this morning. But they suggested a retest. But Haggard already confessed something. But etc.

The escort's tall, swarthy soon-to-be ex-boyfriend sits on the couch in front of the TV set. When he sees the reporters, he darts into a bedroom like a startled fish and doesn't reappear.

Or maybe "like a dude who doesn't want any part of Woodward and Bernstein here."

The two reporters look pretty smart and might have a splendid career in what's left of journalism as we know it (if they drop the Nora Ephron-Carl Bernstein act), but count me now in the sorry-I-asked category now that MNT has released this info.

Rekers is doubling down:

'I am immediately resigning my membership in NARTH to allow myself the time necessary to fight the false media reports that have been made against me. With the assistance of a defamation attorney, I will fight these false reports because I have not engaged in any homosexual behavior whatsoever. I am not gay and never have been.'

"You know, that's really the core issue here," he added. "I bought the drugs to enhance masturbation. Because what crystal meth does--Mike taught me this--crystal meth makes it so you don't ejaculate soon. So you can watch porn and masturbate for a long time."

News Flash! After being treated by his church the same way he gladly treated others while he was leading his church, Ted Haggard now professes: "I used to think the church was the light of the world. But I've completely lost my faith in it." There's nothing like being handed the dirty end of the stick to discover that it's dirty.

I forgot to include this amazing photo of Haggard and his family:

When Haggard resigned, Roose reports, he signed a separation agreement, drafted by a board of overseers appointed by the church, which "required him to cut off all contact with members of the church, stay away from the media, perform no ministry-related work, and move his family out of Colorado."

He said the lawmaker at first told him he could not leave, grabbed him in the rear, exposed himself to the young man and then later gave him an iPad, BlackBerry cellphone and $100 cash to keep quiet.
