Your a jerk. Millions of children and mothers have contracted the virus through no actions of their own. The epidemic is horrifying and deserves to get this kind of financial attention.

Of course a nice Christian like yourself is just full of compassion and would gladly serve others in their time of need......

Isn't that the Christian credo...."let the darkies drop dead"...

Is this money going to cure them? Millions of children infected? How? Are there that many hemopeliacs in Africa? No they are being raped. You think your going to stop rape with $500 million? You honestly think that if you throw money at a morality problem it gets fixed? Why doesn't it work here?

I'd rather be a jerk then a complete and total dimwit that thinks money is going to fix a morality problem! Why don't you go over there and volenteer to put the rubbers on all the men wanting sex! What an idiot!

Perhaps you would be so good as to point out to some of us ignorant souls, who believe that the President is limited by the Constitution--or should be--just where in either the New or Old Testament, there is any authority to take money given you as a solemn charge for specific purposes, and spend it for something else?

If you want to raise money for the relief of medical problems in other lands, as a form of Christian Charity, no one will oppose you. But to unilaterally appropriate public money to that effort is something very different.
