Jerry Falwell LIED! He was at the PB Abortion Bill Signing with Haggard in 2003!
Yesterday Falwell was on CNN and claimed he did not know Pastor Ted. Of course we all knew he was lying. Here is the proof.....

E-mail from Pastor Ted Haggard

This is the Nov. 7 e-mail that New Life Church Pastor Ted Haggard sent out describing his trip to Washington DC to witness President Bush as he signed the Partial Birth Abortion Act of 2003 and then hang out with him in the Oval Office.

<snip>

Well, on Monday I was in the World Prayer Center and my cell phone rang. It was one of the special assistants to President Bush calling from the White House. It turns out that when the President was reviewing the list of those attending the signing of the partial birth abortion ban, he asked why I wasn't attending and asked that they call me. So the White House staff got onto the phones and were calling the NAE Washington office, our church office and my cell phone at the same time trying to see if I could come to the signing.


Of course I could. So I rearranged my schedule (thank you to those of you whose appointments got changed) and flew to Washington on Tuesday to be at the signing on Wednesday. I sat with those from the Senate and House who voted for the bill, and afterward was escorted to the President's motorcade and taken to the White House. I and seven others were able to spend 55 minutes with the President in the Oval office discussing any issue we liked. It was incredible. I'll tell you about the discussion in church.


Attending the private meeting with the President were Rev. Jerry Falwell from Liberty University, Janet Parshall, author and host of the nationally syndicated radio broadcast "Janet Parshall's America," Southern Baptist Convention (SBC) President Dr. Jack Graham, former SBC President Dr. Adrian Rogers, American Center for Law and Justice (ACLJ) Chief Counsel Jay Sekulow, National Religious Broadcasters President Frank Wright, and President of the Ethics & Religious Liberty Commission Dr. Richard Land.

9. "Falwell you got some explaining to do......"
... that darn email and videotape will get you every time. When will they ever learn.

Political consultants need to understand that documents and video 'proving' that the opponent is lying juxtaposed with their lying statement is the most powerful ad that could be placed before likely voters.

Voters will forgive almost anything except a boldfaced lie. Proof that they lied is powerful medicine to counteract those who would take office by deception.

Granted, Falwell is not a candidate. However, there are over 30 million evangelicals who 'listen' to him in making their political decisions. He is blatantly aligned with Republicans, and he needs to be confronted every time he lies to promote the Rightwing Conservative Repub Agenda.

7. "Lying Sack of Crap"
Everybody sing along: "He's a lying sack of crap. He's a lying sack of crap..." Been listening to Mama so much that now everytime I see one of those lying sacks of crap this song immediately starts playing in my head, and I begin to sing.
