Le Dance Pathetique…as choreographed by Richard DeVos…

Because I believe in it.

Trois…
I have been hung in effigy by the gay community for a long time, from when I was on President Reagan’s first AIDS commission…
Quatre…
From that point on, that’s when they were hanging me in effigy because I wasn’t sympathetic to all of their requests for special treatment.
Cinq…
And I said, “You are responsible for your actions, too, you know. Conduct yourself properly,” which is a pretty solid Christian principle. You’ve got to take responsibility for your actions.

Sept…
Call [gay marriage] something else. Call it anything you want to. But marriage is a sacred document, OK?
Huit…
A sacred sacrament in the church and in the world. Don’t mess with it.
Neuf…
Go do something else.
Dix…
I deal with a lot of wonderful gay people. I hire a lot of them. I use a lot of them. I respect them. They’re terrific. I am good friends with them.
