Remember the holy honcho, Ted Haggard? He's the evangelical preacher who was scandalized 2 years ago when Mike Jones, an escort, claimed Haggard had sex with and bought methamphetamines from him.
Today, Haggard has again been dragged out of the closet by Grant Haas, a young man who claims he was paid $180,000 to keep quiet about Haggard's sexual involvement with him. But the 22-year-old has broken his silence because he feels Haggard is a predator who could strike again.
In this clip, Grant describes Haggard's advances toward him during a church youth outing in which he had the toe-curling misfortune of sharing a motel room with the horny pastor.

Outing i feel is done by miserable gay men who fiend for others that like men to be like them,and chastise them when they choose not to conform to the”Gay lifestyle”.It is really pathethic and further divides
Jay, are you saying they shouldnt have outed Haggard? YAAA right, the man is a hypocrite profiting of the poor fools at his church while doing meth and getting fucked blind AND hitting on the choir boys. Disgusting (not the sex part lol)
When will gay men learn the consequences of outing these BISEXUAL MEN(NOT GAY)have horrible consequences.Gay men are always victims of murder,horrible bashing,brutal crimes due to running there big ass mouth like some sissy.Its best to ignore idiots like Haggard,he isnt the only hypocrite.They are all over the world.What will you do expose them?.You know how many DOWNLOW THUGS have murdered gay men for exposing them.As soons as there body is discovered the gay community wants to cry homophobia.Bull fucking shit!.The gay male brought it on himself.Running his big ass mouth and exposing a mans personal life.I cant stand bigots,hypocrites.However outing has many horrible consequences and when a man haas become outraged for being outed,all logic and morality is thrown out the window and he aims to shed blood.It happens all the time.I just do not agree with the approach.Many gay men and women feel the same way
Jay, while I agree with you that outing people for the sake of outing them is wrong, in the case of Haggard, I believe it’s ok.
Political Outings were used to great effect in the 1980s, often against conservatives who would dismiss gay rights then go to the bathhouse for an anal massage.
Haggard, who is well known and documented for his extremist fundo-Christian views on homosexuality among other things, deserves, if found to actually be gay or bisexual to be outed. It’s rank hypocrisy for him to preach what he does if he in fact follows that which he preaches against.
If he isn’t gay or bisexual, fine, it’s slander. But nobody would be outing him if he weren’t so rampantly anti-gay (and gay/bi himself).
Snow alert? Nooooo!
WHO CARES …THESE HUSTLERS WHO WANNA GET F$%^^^^% AND HIGH PRAY ON PEOPLE LIKE THAT. THEY ALL SHOULD GET THE CHAIR ..OR BE ON THE MOVIE SAW AND MAKE IT REAL!

I understand the politics behind it,especially against Republicans.However the world of outing has stretched further than just politics.It happens in the street all the time and the result is the gay male(many whom i find to be very effeminate or flamboyant) is assaulted,murdered.I hate to say it,however its 1 main reason men who are downlow or discreet remain so.They are totally turned off by the homosexual world developing this perception that all homosexuals in the open will pigeonhole them into there world which causes major discomfort.As a discreet bisexual myself the number of men that are married or discreet sleeping who prefer other discreet men or masculine(the perception is feminine men are equivalent to women=therefore unable to hold water)is growing so rapidly.Many homosexual men want these guys to accept them or stop stereotyping them yet this outing only cause more division and further drives men to live there lives in anonymity.And i certaintly do not blame them.Regardless what effect “”outing””has its message is perceived by men who have sexual attractions to men yet live heterosexual lives as gay men being a bunch of miserable fags who chastise any male with a sexual attraction to men that does not conform to the homosexual world or its culture.It only creates more of a divide!
We must keep in mind that there are bad seeds of every group.Somehow many openly gay men become angry at me or others who simply acknowledge there are gay men who are extremely ignorant,miserable(Perez Hilton types)making it far harder for the stereotypes and negativity surrounding to stop due to there foolish actions surrounding outing anyone due to there subconscious unawareness form of misery and insecurity.They do not help at all.
One has to wonder if Mr. Haas gave all that money back since he failed to ‘keep quiet.’ Which is worse, taking money to remain silent or paying lots of a church’s donations to silence a preacher “with issues?” Mr. Haas should be beaten with his own shoe. The preacher should be banned from the pulpit.
