RNC Attacks Its Own On New "Hope Isn't Hiring" Site
The RNC's newfangled campaign website has a cutting-edge campaign strategy: attack President Obama for signing a policy that GOP members of the House and Senate endorsed. In a litany of attacks on President Obama's stance on social issues, the RNC cites the repeal of the military's "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy. However, the RNC elides the fact that the battle for repeal hinged on Republican support for passage. At the end of the day, 15 Republicans in the House and eight in the Senate voted to repeal "Don't Ask, Don't Tell," a move that was backed by an overwhelming majority of the American people.

The American Family Association's Homophobic Email Full Of Faulty Information
In an email with the subject line "Obama's new military: Gays showering with straights," the American Family Association attempted to mislead readers on the impact of the impending repeal of "Don't Ask, Don't Tell." In addition to the blatant homophobia regarding showers, the AFA fails to present any up-to-date military opinions on gay service in the military.
