So does this mean we can keep the $15B that GWB pledged and put it to better uses? (Which would be just about anything other than a false war against AIDS in Africa).

The money Bush is pledging is for medicines, not condoms. The article refers to the huge number of orphans. The Aids drugs will enable parents to live long enough to raise their children, rather than these children becoming orphans.
As the article points out, the Ugandan model for reduction in infection works and it does not involve using condoms.

What we do with the 15 bil is give it to the guy who made it work in Uganda, & after he repeats his success in the rest of the continent, then we give him another 15 bil for his own personal use, because a guy who can convince a whole continent to practice responsible sexual behavior has earned it.
