"...two years after Bush made his pledge, only 2 percent of the AIDS money has been distributed..." - Perlstein

$2 Billion last year (from your source) out of $15 Billion and yet you claim that only 2% has been distributed?!

Try language along with some facts: "asked for" is not the same as "distributed."
