Compassionate conservatives
Disgraced gay meth user Ted Haggard's brother-in-Christ, Pastor Mark Driscoll, blames Haggard's downfall on his fat, lazy wife.

Driscoll, in an unfortunately ironic and amusing turn of phrase, says "I will lean over the plate and take one for the team on this..."

"It is not uncommon to meet pastors' wives who really let themselves go; they sometimes feel that because their husband is a pastor, he is therefore trapped into fidelity, which gives them cause for laziness. A wife who lets herself go and is not sexually available to her husband in the ways that the Song of Songs is so frank about is not responsible for her husband's sin, but she may not be helping him either."
Christ, what a wad.
