''It was my honor 2 share [the] podium w Lt. Dan Choi today. I understand he's been arrested in front of the White House. I dig that dude! Balls!''
Tweet from comedian Kathy Griffin after her appearance at today's rally in DC against ''Don't Ask, Don't Tell.'' The event appeared to be a joint venture between the Human Rights Campaign and Bravo! TV. And there's some controversy surrounding Choi's appearance at the event -- whether he was invited to be a part or not -- plus he intentionally created an act of "civil disobedience" at the White House at a time when Congress is seriously seeking a repeal of the Clinton-era policy. Lt. Choi and another soldier had themselves handcuffed to the wrought iron fence on Pennsylvania Avenue. (Twitter/kathygriffin)
