Is The DOJ Lying About The DOMA Brief?

By The Daily Dish

Jun 12 2009, 6:22 AM ET

Aravosis thinks so. And he has a strong case. And I thought the Clinton administration was clueless on gay rights ... and that's what comes to mind today. I remember the DOMA hearings where I testified in 1996. On the morning of the hearings, the Clinton White House kicked us in the teeth with a statement lauding the constitutionality of DOMA. They didn't have to do it; they didn't have to do it the way they did; and they didn't have to time it that way; and they could have let us know. In the end, we realized it was Dick Morris. Please tell me we didn't elect Obama for more Dick Morris.
