AMERICAblog: Bush cuts funding for condoms in Africa

  • RainbowPhoenix · 1 year ago
    Another shining example of how "moral" and out of touch the Bush administration is.

    Of course he did. We can afford $700 B to bailout the fat cats, but the poor and middle class are left holding the bill. Republicans really do not care about the poor or middle class. It is all an illusion of greed.

    Wow, another election issue that you can sink your teeth into........

    I seem to remember that forced abortions was OK as long as it was done in the Mariana islands to the benefit of corporate greed.

    Let's ask Tom Delay his feelings on this.

    So fucking glad they have their priorities straight in Washington. Our whole economy is collapsing and what is Dubbya diddling with? Once again, penis politics. We really ARE a junior high playground at recess as a nation. Republicans getting erections because of their vice presidential candidate....ballot amendments on gay marriage...a news media obsessed with sex. Penis Politics. Nice. Real Nice. Okay, kids, let's all try to play nicely at recess today. Oh shit there is no recess today. Mommy and Daddy have no jobs, there is no school anymore because there is no tax revenue to educate you. But your President and your leaders are making sure that people do not use their penises improperly.

    What effect will this have on the AIDS problem in Africa?
  • RainbowPhoenix · 1 year ago
    It will aggravate it to even more disastrous levels.

    This is bad folks. I have lived In Zambia, and I know at that time STD's were rampant, and I can now imagine how AIDS must have taken it's place. It is a shame that we have no money in the kitty, to help these people
    Bush has mismanaged this country, spent our money like a drunken sailor, by starting a bloody war, which has drained our economy.

    Bush and Cheney deserve the same fate as Saddam.

    it's pretty obvious that the conservative mindset is
    "the only good African is a dead African" and it's
    equally obvious that not many seem to care whether
    they live in misery or die en masse.

    such compassionate conservatism, innit?

    Where the fuck is Bono on this. He loudly praised Bush to the rafters for his dedication to fighting the African AIDS crisis-which made me sick! if he couldn't figure out it was all talk and no rock, he's dumber than I thought.
