That man is no leader and is an embarrassment as a representative of our republic.
Wasn’t it Bush that gave billions for AIDS help in Africa????
Well Brack, Bush funded AIDS far more than you have. You haven’t because you don’t give a crap.
Aids funding gets in the way of you and your wife’s entertainment.
“And we’re funding global AIDS. And the other side is not.”
Outright LIE!
Obama voice: You would think they would be saying Thank You.
The world has had enough of the One.
“And the other side is not.”
Long criticized for neglecting disease in the developing world, the United States has tripled funding for combating AIDS, malaria and tuberculosis.
Signed into law yesterday by President Bush, the plan allots $48 billion over the next five years for disease treatment and research. It builds on the five-year, $15 billion President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief, which earned Bush praise for acknowledging the AIDS epidemic — two million deaths last year, most in sub-Saharan Africa — and condemnation for ignoring other, equally pressing diseases.
Malaria kills approximately one million people each year. Tuberculosis kills another 1.5 million, and the evolution of extensively drug-resistant strains has raised the possibility of widespread, highly-lethal outbreaks in the developed world.
Liberals and conservatives alike applauded the Bush-backed bill, and Democrats gave the President a rare kudos for his initiative. Senator Joseph Biden (D-Delaware), told the Associated Press that PEPFAR was “the single most significant thing the President has done,” saying it would save hundreds of thousands of lives — and the new legislation is even more ambitious.
The legislation “is our compact with developing nations across the globe,” said Nancy Pelosi, Democratic Speaker of the House of Representatives, in a statement last week. “It says that America stands with them in this fight, that our commitment will not waver, and shows them America’s true facge of compassion.”
The bill earned overwhelming bipartisan support in both the House and Senate. Among the objectors was Senator John Cornyn (R-Texas), who after the Senate voted told the Washington Post that the plan, which accounts for roughly one-half of one percent of the U.S. budget, is too generous.
“There should be a limit,” he said. “It’s one thing to say you’ll support it at $15 billion; it’s another thing to say you’ll support it at $35 billion. To me, it’s entirely another thing to support it at $50 billion.”

Whatever you think of the Bush bill, strictly on the facts, this shows Obama is a liar. Again.
Sickening. He is ruining the best hope of the World but tearing down our beloved Nation. I wonder how shocked he would be if his teleprompter told him just how much we helped the world in fighting HIV during Bush's administration.
“And the question we’ve got is which party is most likely to actually fund it in ways that help people around the world.”
The question we SHOULD have is which party is most likely to restore this country to some semblance of prosperity and adherence to the Constitution, idiot.
Feeding on their own...Such a site to see...
The disgraced criminal Sen. Chris Dodd, who is retiring seems to have enough sense to "git while the gittin' is good."
He forgot, that Bush gave something like 8x of our money to africa to combat aids. Obama is cutting it.
yuk yuk yuk
If my memory serves me correctly I bitched my brains out when W spent millions to fight AIDS.
What would be more likely to stop the spread of AIDS? 10 billion to distribute condoms to Africa or a billion dollar prize for the first AIDS vaccine? Would the Gates foundation fund such a prize? Betcha it would. But that isn’t the goal of AIDS activists, to stop the spread of AIDS. Or rather, only a part is stopping AIDS. They are aiming to reduce population growth in Africa, to bring abortion mills to every village, and to loot that funding for their own programs everywhere.
The names change - zero population growth, global warming, AIDS awareness, but the agenda never changes.
Wow, and here I thought The One had, WON?
Apparently, being in charge is not really being in charge when accountability happens.
Obama said. “Because we’re trying to focus on figuring out how to finance the things that you want financed, all right?”
And, just when are we supposed to expect he’ll have things “figured out”? Seems to be taking him awhile. Methinks he’s too effing stupid to figure ANYTHING out. . .or, he knows he doesn’t really have to.
He’s probably going to ponder it when he takes his glittering freak show to India. Maybe he’ll think about it while the First Wookie talks with the sex workers of Mumbai.
A message from Dear Leader: WWWWwwwwwwaaaaaaaahhhhhhhHHHH!!!!
only thing he forgot was to tell them to go look for us in the back of the bus
