A FACE TO PUT WITH THE HIV BAN

A lot of people may not realize that one of the country's most popular political commentators, British-born Andrew Sullivan, is HIV positive. You may know Andrew from his wildly popular Daily Dish blog, his regular op-ed contributions to the Washington Post and the Times of London and his regular appearances on HBO's Real Time with Bill Maher, CNN and the Chris Matthews Show.

Today on his blog, Andrew discusses his fears of being forced to leave his country of 25 years because a waiver allowing the admission of HIV positive individuals is set to expire in a few months. Congress needs to deal with this and soon. Write to your members of Congress to tell them to permanently extend the waiver.
