I know this sounds strange but I had Tammy and Jim Baker pegged as shysters back in the 1970s. How do you convince a mother-in-law of it when she thought they hung the moon.

I will give Jim a nudge of respect as he did not allow Larry Flint of Hustler Magazine a forum on his show after Flint’s socalled conversion to Christianity.

After Flint was shot he became a very vile creature even worse than before.

Never a fan, but I saw an interview Jim Baker did after he got out of prison and he came across as a man who was repentant. The thing that really stood out to me was the way he responded to the questions about Tammy Faye. The interviewer tried every which way to get him to speak disparagingly of her and he would not. He said she was my wife the mother of my children, I will not speak ill of her. Quite loyal and gentlemanly of him I thought. She had certainly spoken unkindly about him, had divorced him and married his friend.
