THE DOSE: Rev. Haggard Solicits Again

Rev. Ted Haggard, founder of the New Life evangelical megachurch in Colorado Springs, is asking for it again.

Last week, he emailed a radio station to solicit financial support while he goes back to school in spite of the fact he was given more than $130,000 in severance, receives royalties from many books, and owns a home valued at around $700,000.

Haggard reluctantly pulled out of New Life after admitting to “sexual immorality” in the wake of accusations of a male prostitute. This is not the first time he’s begged for favors from strangers.
