Twenty-five years after AIDS was formally given a name, Texas and the rest of the country still fail to designate the money needed to prevent it and HIV...

Money will do squat, if you'll pardon the expression.

They have a point, Texas has not allocated the money for the isolation camps required to keep those who have this deadly disease away from the general population.

Unfortunately, I think their solution involves free condoms for fifth graders and a gay awareness month.

Twenty-five years after AIDS was formally given a POLITICALLY CORRECT name,

"AIDS" was originally called "GRID", which was an acronym for "Gay Related Immune Deficiency". It originally manifested itself in an extremely high rate of Kaposi's Sarcoma, an otherwise very rare skin cancer.

You wouldn't say that if you were one of the poor families in 3rd world countries being helped by US AIDS funds.

Money has produced meds that allow people with AIDS to live and remain productive and contributing members of society for many many years now.

Money has helped millions around the world including children left without parents because of this disease.

God bless George Bush and other world leaders who've had the compassion to contribute funds toward battling this disease around the world.
