Finally! A sane use of our tax dollars!

[Thrownatbirth]

Wouldn’t AA chips be cheaper?

[Doogle]

...figures, the US tax payer is getting ****** to the tune of 3.6 billion and didn't even get a dinner.

[bgill]

And foreign prostitutes at that!

[healy61]

Somes jokes just should be thought and definitely not written in a post.

[wny]

Bill Clinton call your office.

Is this an example of out of control Leftist Bureaucrats with a pile of American Taxpayer’s money at their disposal?

I doubt it would cost $2.6 million to tell those “Americans” that go to China on business, whatever to keep their pants on.

[Tai_Chung]

Wow, $2.6 million so the “researcher” can go out drinking with prostitues! The real story is how does such a person get this job.

No pictures?

[Mojave]

Another way to promote outsourcing.

[DustyMoment]

Ya know, it will be cheaper to train Chinese prostitutes to drink responsibly on the job than it would be to teach Congress to do pretty much ANYTHING responsibly. Just teaching them to spend our money responsibly would come with a price tag of $377B.

And, no one can afford what it would cost to teach them to put America first . . . . . . . . . that’s an $80 Trillion dollar price tag.

Are the Prostitutes nationalized or are we supporting a free market in a Communist country?

[Sender]

I dub this the ChiHo project. It’s crucial for national security. Get yo drink on.

[SampleMan]

How typical in every way.

First, throwing money into a foreign issue that in no way effects us.

Second, they look at the Asian sex trade and their primary concern is alcohol abuse.

[Rappini]

There were two prerequistes when I went to WSU, you had to have a Black Belt in Karate and carry an MP5.

[Ueriah]

In these harsh economic times, I am willing to take one for the team as it may be and go to China to get hookers drunk and doink them.

Can I have, say, 100,000 of the allocated funds? I’ll turn in a paper or something... maybe even start a website!

This guy is an amazing scam artist, and the NIH needs more rigorous oversight. Meanwhile, research that might benefit Americans goes begging. In addition, Dr. Li is working on three ongoing NIH-funded HIV-related projects totaling $4,484,482 in grants in China. One involves assessing psychosocial needs among children affected by AIDS in HenanProvince. Another consists of a behavioral HIV prevention intervention program among rural-to-urban migrants in Beijing. The third, a subcontract from Old Dominion University, involves behavioral HIV prevention among female entertainment workers in Shanghai.

Why are U.S. taxpayers footing the bill for any of this. This doctor is a professor of pediatrics and what any of this has to do with children's health is beyond me. Why are the Chinese managing to get US to pay for research into THEIR vice industry? Who is responsible for this? I would like some names.

Insourcing. Outsourcing. Insourcing. Outsourcing. Insourcingoutsourcinginsourcingoutsourcinginsourcingoutsourcing.

Well, you get the idea.

[depressed in 06]

If they didn’t do this, they would have, just, spent it foolishly.

[Pilated]

Who in their right mind would even think about spending this countries money like this.It’s absurd. Fund Verterans with this money! NOW!
