1/2 hour film about Dominican Sisters has Haggard trashing them.

At the end of "Conviction," the documentary about the three Dominican sisters sent to federal prison for their 2002 peace demonstration at a Weld County nuclear missile site, a clip from President Reagan's second inaugural address appears almost hauntingly.

"We seek the total elimination one day of nuclear weapons from the face of the Earth," the then-president says.

His words stand in stark contrast to those of the Rev. Ted Haggard, president of the National Association of Evangelicals, who appears throughout the film calling the women "terrorists."


I thought I recognized this douchbag from the film. I just saw the DVD two weeks ago.



A little history on the nuns.

5. The Dominicans are the REAL DEAL.
Haggard is a cowardly hypocrite.

6. Someone on Crooks and Liars posted that Haggard is the Jesus Camp guy.
I haven't seen Jesus Camp. But it wouldn't surprise me to see Hypocrite Haggard's lying mouth in it.
