In a recent OneNewsNow piece, "reporter" Chad Groening wrote about Press Secretary Robert Gibbs's "startling pronouncement" regarding whether the Obama Administration plans on seeing Don't Ask, Don't Tell  (DADT) repealed. Gibbs responded with a one-word answer: "Yes." (PHB diary here.) The OneNewsNow piece, entitled Obama et al. essentially mum on military ban, extensively quoted Elaine Donnelly:

Oh yes. We remember Donnelly's recent warnings about the consequences of gay, lesbian, and bisexual people were allowed to serve openly in the military services:

    Donnelly treated the panel to an extraordinary exhibition of rage. She warned of "transgenders in the military." She warned that lesbians would take pictures of people in the shower. She spoke ominously of gays spreading "HIV positivity" through the ranks.
