The Overseer Board of New Life church, in Colorado Springs, colorado  (a 501(c)3, government-chartered, non-profit corporation, as opposed to a new testament (First Amendment) Church ) fires its founding pastor, theo-conservative (dominionist) Reverend Ted Haggard, for homosexual conduct, and illegal drug use.  As President of the National Association of Evangelicals, Haggard had been a fervent supporter of the Republican (fascist/socialist) party, an occasional advisor to de facto President George W. Bush (having received an unlawful advantage of 43 ineligible Electoral votes), and lent his political support to an upcoming ballot initiative that would amend the state constitution to ban same-sex marriage.
