Keep in mind that this guy is recruiting. Even if he is making zero he will say that he is making something. He has too. Otherwise, how will he recruit.

Tis the NAA way.

As Rick on Topgunproducers says discount what agents tell you that make by 30%. However, due to the type of article it is I think he might under state his income a little to generate more sympathy.

I have no problem seeing him attracting 42 and many more. Regardless of his past, he was a pastor of a LARGE evangelical church.

I have watched many tele-evangelists, not for the relgious message but to observe their delivery... and techniques. They are some of the best salesman you will ever see. Empathy, passion, ability to tell a believable story, etc, etc... They can *hook* folks in. People with the religious fever will follow him, (no offense if you have it), and folks that are down and out will follow him...

Hell, I might have just talked myself into following him... NOT. But I can surely see someone like him doing well with insuance, and the NAA or other multi-level marketing concept.

It is interesting the way the licensing process works. If you have been convicted of hiring prostitutes and using meth and cocaine it might work against you. However, this fellow was not convicted but has nevertheless done interviews and a documentary attesting to such.

Don't care one way or the other. Just saying it is interesting.

Haggard! If you guys get a chance watch a documentary called "Friends of God". Beware! If you look really close you may spot a hypocrite.

Maybe you should send Ted a link to the site... you could add a new section: "Ted's Corner"..... Or not.

On HBO tonight.


Ted Haggard HBO Documentary: Disgraced Evangelical Will Promote Film, Admit Struggles With Sexuality


Fallen evangelical leader Ted Haggard, who was disgraced by a gay sex/meth scandal in 2006, is back — and he's taking his story to HBO in a documentary called, "The Trials of Ted Haggard."
The New York Post's Don Kaplan reports that Haggard will promote the documentary next month, his first public appearance since the scandal broke:
The coming out is set for next month at a convention of TV critics in LA.
"We look forward to presenting the film, Ted Haggard and his family at a press tour in LA next month," said a spokeswoman for HBO.

When the scandal broke, Haggard was paid a year's salary, about $130,000, and agreed not to talk about it publicly.

But now the former leader of one of the largest churches in the US is free to talk about his downfall and has chosen the semi-annual Television Critics Association press tour in January as his first forum.

"We have released Ted and [his wife] Gayle from their separation agreement with New Life Church," senior pastor Brady Boyd said yesterday in a statement. "They are free to move forward with their lives in any way they choose without any legal constraint from the church."

In the film, by Nancy Pelosi's documentarian daughter Alexandra, Haggard says that he never claimed to be heterosexual and that he still struggles with homosexual impulses. From the AP:
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. -- Disgraced evangelical leader Ted Haggard says in a new documentary that he still struggles with his sexuality yet is committed to his marriage for the sake of his children.
Haggard, 52, resigned as president of the National Association of Evangelicals and was fired as senior pastor of New Life Church in Colorado Springs in November 2006 after a former male prostitute went public with allegations that Haggard paid him for sex and used methamphetamine.
