"This is why the terrorists hate us. It’s not the glitter and pomp and circumstance. We got black and white, we got Hispanic and Asian, we got gay, straight and Guttenberg all working - all working together for one common goal: to get the mirror ball. And the mirror ball doesn’t care what color you are. It doesn’t care how rich your parents are. And it doesn’t care what God you pray to. It’s an even wooden floor and may the best man or woman win. And I say God bless Dancing With The Stars and God bless the USA."
