Of course the reviewer lied

How much money has President Bush requested for PEPFAR so far and how much has been enacted?
In FY 2004, President Bush requested $1.9 billion for combating global HIV/AIDS, TB and Malaria, suggesting that the $3 billion was an average and that the annual expenditure would be increased over the five-year period. Congress increased President Bush’s figure by $500 million, and in January 2004 appropriated $2.4 billion for HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis and malaria for FY 2004, which ended on 30th September 2004. Of this total, $850 million was “new” money.5
The total budget for global HIV and AIDS in FY 2005 was $2.7 billion, of which $2.6 billion was enacted. Within this amount, $1.37 billion was for the U.S. Global Coordinator’s Office, and $347 was for the Global Fund.6
In FY 2006, President Bush requested, and Congress appropriated, approximately $3.2 billion.7
For FY 2007, Congress approved funding of $4.5 billion for HIV, tuberculosis and malaria including $724 million for the Global Fund. The total amount was $500 million more than President Bush had requested.8
President Bush has requested $5.4 billion for FY 2008, which would bring total spending over the five-year period to more than $18 billion (20% more than originally planned).9

Send these statistics directly to the reviewer at her email address above, and remind her of why Bono is a friend of the President’s, not a detractor. Make sure she knows we ALL know she lied!
