You're right about HIV being mostly spread by drug/homosexual behavior here in the US, but in Africa, HIV is spread mostly through heterosexual contact. Sadly many times this is when an infected man rapes a "virgin" to cure himself. I think behavioral education in Africa would go so much farther than handing out drugs to people who, honestly, are probably not sophisitcated enough to use the drugs right. But, that's the unPC version :-)

I've always thought of Gates' philanthropy as doing good things thanks to bad software. :)

There is a strong correlation in Africa between non-circumcision and AIDS incidence. Even the now-PC Scientific American published a convincing series of maps on this.

I can think of nobody in American public life with less credibility on sexuality and responsibility than the only elected president to be impeached.

Interesting. What was their theory as to how this affected the transmission?

The skin fold holds an ideal place for the AIDS virus and other STD vectors to flourish.

Africa's strong tribal traditions govern circumcision practices, which vary from region to region.

This essentially "free" method to stem the epidemic is rarely mentioned. There are no good reasons for that.

This IDIOT has got some nerve talking about AIDS. What does that remind you of when you think about Clinton? He had EIGHT YEARS to DO SOMETHING about it! GO AWAY ALREADY!

Clinton lecturing anyone on anything is a JOKE!

I have never understood why it is unPC to suggest telling these people to stop screwing . . .

I think anyone saying anything to our darker-skinned brethren risks being tarred as a racist these days. It makes no sense, of course.

And countries with large populations of people suffering with AIDS risk becoming unstable and susceptible to the forces of lawlessness, famine, terror and the demagogic appeals of dictators.

What does the Impeached *One really know about lawlessness, terror and dictators? Never forget - *he's a self-confessed serial perjurer...
