The Bilious Young Fogey is Back

The Bilious Young Fogey is back and blogging up a storm. For those of you who are tired of reading Andrew "Excitable" Sullivan's increasingly eccentric rants, check out BYF here. He's a good thinker and a good writer, and he sees the world as it is.

Here's his assessment of the Ted Haggard dustup.

The fundamentalist rabble rouser in Colorado is another victim of the same leftist flawed and hypocritical way of thinking. It seems his only crime was to oppose gay marriage. For that, a hustler outs him and destroys his life. The prostitute, a man who should be ashamed of what he does (he let others use his body for money, for crying out loud), even ventures to justify his own immorality by a whining, embarrassing-to-gay-people-everywhere girly cry baby routine:

'Jones told KHOW he went public with his story because of Haggard's support for Colorado's proposed constitutional amendment banning same-sex marriage.

"I cried many nights; I got sick tormenting myself about whether I should do this," he said. "I finally had to come to peace with myself. ... I had to do the moral thing."..

Jones said he learned Art's identity when he saw him on television four months ago. Jones said he became upset when he learned that Haggard's church supported the proposed state constitutional amendment.'

This prostitute claims the moral high ground? And this is liberation? What was it all for?
