HIV+ ban on US lifted!

[kevyn]

Excellent news... Canadians and others with HIV can now travel freely to the United States, without fear of being turned away at the border. Bush has signed into law an AIDS funding bill that lifts the ban on people with HIV entering the United States!

For once, Bush has actually done something positive with that pen...
(Of course, I have to wonder if there are any signing statements attached).

See, we just don't know about the fine print.

"Non-Americans with HIV can now travel freely to the United States...as long as they proceed directly to the concentration camps set up for all those icky, icky gays."
