Mosbacher served as U.S. Secretary of Commerce from 1989 to 1992 and was influential in helping to form the North American Free Trade Agreement. He also made headlines when, in 1992, while working on the Bush/Quayle election campaign, he took a meeting with gay activists to discuss discrimination, AIDS and homophobic campaign rhetoric.

"Having the highest-ranking member of your re-election campaign meet with the homosexual lobby is a direct contradiction to your attempts to portray your administration as pro-family," Reverend Morris Chapman, president of the Southern Baptist Convention, wrote at the time.

3. I thought I heard a squeaking noise...

It was the main gates of Hell swinging wide for a stupendous reception. Satan - himself - will be Master of Ceremonies.

4. Meeting with gay activists in 1982 was a huge deal

because the Christian hypocrites on the right were just finding the power that Reagan had handed over to them.

He did this one really good thing in his life, a finger in the eye of every shrieking televangelist, and for this I applaud him. Nothing much came of it, of course, he was still GOP, but he did make the effort.

8. I was just gonna say it sounds like the ONLY good thing he did

He helped made NAFTA happen. 'Nuf said.
