    The big news is we have a preacher who didn't go after a child!!!! This is huge. I repeat, he merely solicited an adult! Give the guy a badge or something.

      Yet, I bet many are the sermons preached against being gay and other sins of the flesh. How swiftly the mighty fall!

        When looking for prostitutes, one should stick to their own church.

        This is a first in a long time. Usually some perv, well he may still be a perv, but at least he's not after babies.

          He should run for a GOP senate seat. He and Larry Craig could travel together and avoid tap dancing in public restrooms.

            Sounds more like NY Governor material. Now, if it were a gay male prostitution ring, then he'd be a lock for a Dem member of Congress like Barney Frank.

            This is really sad. It is after all the flesh that will make us fail in one way or another. The high number of these incidents seem to make a picture of the falling away from the church of some of the teacher.

            These guys need to listen to their own sermons and when they feel themselves being tempted. Well reach out to another member in the church. I mean we are all human and have different temptations. That is why there is supposed to be a fellowship.

              Sex scandals among preachers and republicans are easily the most prolific thing in the news these days, perhaps propeller should have a channel devoted to it!

                I agree that the hypocrisy is glaring and that it is self-evident that we expect a high level of moral behaviour from people who should act like role-models.

                I'm not sure that the entrapment method is the best way to go, however.

                It seems sleazy and fighting sleaze with sleaze seems like an incremental manner of producing mire.

                Adding more crap to the crap-pile, as it were.

                Now, will it be OK for Rev. Jeremiah Wright to sing "God damn white pedophiles wearing robes in white churches of America"?

                Where is "bathroom" guru the foot tapping Republican from Idaho to defend this scum.

                  I am sure and people may not agree or ready to give in. Every pastor is a pedophile and it is only a matter of time before they are all caught. It could be that some of them will get away with, do they call in "SIN" or "PLEASURE". Your pick.

                    Wow, we didn't have to wait more than 12 hours to find out who would be next after that guy in Texas.

                      True! I wonder how long before our next "Holy Hangover"?

                      We could have a lottery, guess the state, guess the hours before the next one, win and autographed Holy Grail and a subscription to Hustler!

                      The liberals always want to bring politics into it and point fingers at the GOP, but they conveniently ignore any post that mentions Barney Frank.

                        Good news is they found, open and out of the closet, Barney Frank's wallet. Bad news is that it had your picture in it coyotero.

                          Um...you are pointing fingers at people other than the criminal. A little silly don't you think. And if you want to point fingers at Frank, check why you are doing it. As a gay man, I am very protective of my own kind.

                          I am not aware of Frank doing anything illegal. Are you?

                          In fact he's a pretty good role model for gay men don't you think? Contributing to the community and such.

                          There have been a steady parade of holy rollers and republicans in outlandish sex scandals literally daily (the last one was only 12 hours ago). If you throw in the indictments for corruption you pretty much have an hourly lemming parade. Though democrats are hardly immune to chicanery, you are comparing a thimble to the grand canyon.

                          It is the Hypocrisy that makes it laughable. Barney Frank doesn't go around claiming he's not gay, catch the drift?
