I'm not an activist.

I was not an activist.

I'm not against gay people.

I oppose the attempts of homosexual activists to treat homosexual activity as a civil right to be protected and promoted by the government.

I don't think I've ever used the word 'gay rights,' because I don't really believe in rights based on your behavior.

I'm saying it loud: I'm a Republican who supports gay rights.

I'm not focused on the gay and lesbian movement.
