COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. — Personal trainer and self-labeled ex-prostitute Mike Jones, whose allegations regarding disgraced Baptist megachurch preacher Ted Haggard led to the latter’s resignation, says he spent the weekend in a Colorado hotel room with missing South Carolina Republican Gov. Mark Sanford. And he has a plane ticket receipt with Sanford’s name on it that he says proves it.
A spokeswoman for Sanford’s office called the allegation “beyond ludicrous; shameful,” adding that Sanford is a “married man who is deeply committed to his wife and children, whom he loves very, very much.”
“Governor Sanford would never engage in the incredibly immoral acts Mr. Jacobs has alleged took place,” the spokeswoman said. “Governor Sanford believes homosexual acts are a sin and violate the Bible and the sacred institution of traditional marriage, which is why he fully supports South Carolina’s Defense of Marriage Act, which defines marriage as being between only a man and a woman.”
The spokeswoman wouldn’t say if the governor plans to sue for defamation of character, only that “Mr. Jones should be very, very careful about what he says about Governor Sanford in the future. And we’ll be praying for his soul at this clearly troubling time in his life.”

**UPDATE: After reading this article again, with my eyes open this time, it has come to my attention that this is a joke and completely untrue. Although hilarious, we are adding this disclaimer so we don’t get sued.

You realize I made that up and put a snark tag on it, right?
I mean, thanks for grabbing it and all, and believing me, but that’s entirely fake.
