A part of me does feel bad for the guy. I remember what it was like, before I accepted that I was gay. I tried to be straight. But how I would fight myself, only to skulk and sneak around when I was sure none my friends or family would find out.  Yes I did some dumb things (not scandalously dumb, but dumb to me) when I was in the closet, so I do understand. But I didn&#8217;t have a girlfriend, wife or kids, nor did I belong to a church, so the pressure on Haggard must be so much more than I ever experienced. Actually, I take that back, the pressure is the same, that&#8217;s why it leads to these behaviors. Haggard absolutely will not find peace until he settles in his heart and soul who he is, and gets on with his life. This life is too short to live with such pain that he is forcing upon himself. Mr. Haggard, it is time for you to breathe.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div style=\"padding-bottom:20px; padding-top:10px;\" class=\"hupso-share-buttons\"><!-- Hupso Share Buttons - https:\/\/www.hupso.com\/share\/ --><a class=\"hupso_toolbar\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hupso.com\/share\/\"><img src=\"https:\/\/static.hupso.com\/share\/buttons\/share-medium.png\" style=\"border:0px; padding-top: 5px; float:left;\" alt=\"Share Button\"\/><\/a><script type=\"text\/javascript\">var hupso_services_t=new Array(\"Twitter\",\"Facebook\",\"Google Plus\",\"Pinterest\",\"Linkedin\",\"StumbleUpon\",\"Digg\",\"Reddit\",\"Bebo\",\"Delicious\");var hupso_background_t=\"#EAF4FF\";var hupso_border_t=\"#66CCFF\";var hupso_toolbar_size_t=\"medium\";var hupso_image_folder_url = \"\";var hupso_url_t=\"\";var hupso_title_t=\"Ted%20Haggard...%20Again.\";<\/script><script type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"https:\/\/static.hupso.com\/share\/js\/share_toolbar.js\"><\/script><!-- Hupso Share Buttons --><\/div><p>Another past gay affair is revealed.
