Feet (and other parts) of clay?

Before all of us good guys on the left get too jubilant about the apparent fall from grace of the National Evangelical Association's Ted Haggard we might want to remember good old Karl Rove.
Mike Jones, Haggard's accuser, just failed a polygraph test. Pay some wannabe (with buckets of unmarked cash?) to make false accusations against a popular and charismatic leader of an evangelical religious movement with 30,000,000 members nationwide...can you say "mobilize the base?" BTW -- Dawkins had some good fun with Haggard a while back... /dps

Glad to see you blogging again, Dann. I saw the Haggard/Dawkins clip. Truly amazing, especially when Haggard flies into the lot in his SUV to throw Dawkins out, accusing Dawkins of calling his children 'monkeys.' Priceless.
