FRANKSMITHSAYSNB EDITORIAL:
Barrack Obama told a group of hecklers today in Bridgeport that they should be directing their questions about World AIDS funding to the Republicans, when in fact George W. Bush spent more on AIDS funding than any other president--more than twice that of Bill Clinton.
Even more disturbing is how Obama told a crowd at a fundraiser for Barbara Boxer that he agrees with the repeal of Bill Clinton's discriminatory "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy. But if this is true, then why is it that Obama's Justice Department has fought so hard to maintain "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" as the law of the land?
As you may recall, on September 10, U.S. District Judge Virginia Phillips overturned "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" by ruling that it violates the First and Fifth Amendments.
The response of the Obama adminitration reportedly was to immediately strong arm the judge in an attempt to get her to reverse her ruling and claim she made an error in her original ruling.
When this tactic failed, the Obama Administration immediately ran to the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals and got that Court to issue a stay against the Military Department from allowing openly gay troops from serving. The military literally was welcoming gays on one day (in observance of Judge Phillips' order) and back to the policy of discharging them from service for being gay the next day, because of the order obtained by the Obama Administration on October 25.
After taking such extraordinary actions to pursue the continued discrimination against gays by the federal government, Obama is shown on a CNN video saying he agrees that "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" should be repealed, when in fact it was his administration that worked so aggressively to reinstate it after the Court invalidated it.
WHEN WILL THE LIES END?

There he goes again, talking out of both sides of his mouth!
Obama Tells Democrats At Bridgeport Rally: 'Defy Conventional Wisdom'
Defy Conventional Wisdom by re-electing the Democrats who are responsible for such failed policies?
The definition of of insanity is doing the same thing over and over, but expecting a different outcome.
Voting for Democrats when they have destroyed our economy, would be insanity!
If his nose grew every time he lied, it would cross several time zones!
Frank,
You had this story a full 24 hours BEFORE Fox News. Tonight on the "Factor" Bill O'Reilly showed Obama's comments at the Bridgeport rally on Saturday, and said that Obama should know better, because everyone knows that under President George W. Bush, Republicans spent record amounts of money on world AIDS treatment.
Another piece of fair and balanced reporting that you had and the Herald did not!
