Oooh there's nothing worse than a homophobic homo...
This man will make your skin crawl...so smarmy.
Pelosi throws in a few jibes which breaks the monotony of this bible-spouting hypocrite...thankfully, it's only 50 minutes long - any longer you would be bashing your head against the nearest wall.
Aaah, those evangelicals...they certainly hate a sinner!

Ted Haggard had it all: prosperity, a doting wife, five kids and a ministry that reached more than 30 million followers who hung on his every word. But in 2006, it all fell apart in a sea of scandal. Journalist/filmmaker Alexandra Pelosi returns to talk with 'Pastor Ted'--whom she met while filming 'Friends of God' for HBO--who was exiled from the church he built and the state where he lived after admitting to 'sexual immorality' and to buying methamphetamines. Following Haggard and his family as they move from house to house and motel to motel, Pelosi interviews the sullied ex-minister as he works as a traveling insurance salesman...and maps out a strategy for redeeming himself and supporting his family.
