Why do I get the feeling that if this was any president other than Bush, you'd be praising him up and down, and starting a petition to nominate him for the Nobel Prize? As I said in my previous post, $15 billion would hardly make a dent in our recovering economy, and is better used to help FIGHT AIDS in Africa, where
28.5 million people are living with AIDS, and 3.5 million died in 2001.
This is a "liberal" cause if I've ever heard one. This is a continent where in some areas it is believed that having intercourse with a virgin cures the disease, and that AIDS is inflicted by witches. This $15 bil will do a world of good over there.
edit: number was wrong.. 28.5 mil living with aids not 3.5
