That she used her final appearance on Larry King Live just last week to praise the gays for sticking by her was the final political act of the former Tamara Faye LaValley, known around the world as Tammy Faye Bakker.
Consistently excoriated by evangelicals for embracing and being embraced by gay men in particular, Tammy Faye went to her peace secure in the knowledge that the cancer which ravaged her body had left her mind unclouded by judgement.
As to the hundreds of millions of dollars separated from millions of poor suckers by the PTL Club with her assistance, well, that's between her and her Creator now.
Only in America - which I mean in both good and bad senses.
