Foley, Haggard -- it's suddenly 2006 all over again
As we await the 2 p.m. release of the House Ethics Committee Report on the Mark Foley scandal, we've been entertaining ourselves with some other 2006 election-season nostalgia. According to a report in today's Los Angeles Times, the Rev. Ted Haggard has put himself in the hands of a team of counselors who are "assessing his spiritual, emotional and mental condition."
"Ted says he's not a homosexual," the Rev. Mike Ware, a good friend of Haggard's, tells the Times. "The restoration team wants experts to evaluate that."
The losers who gave us Sarah Palin 
Clergy say, "I won't"
And still our vote mattered
