The National Institute of Health (NIH) is in the process of spending $400,000 dollars to study if there is a link between drinking alcohol and having sex amongst homosexuals in Argentina. Yes, THAT NIH part of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services--the primary Federal agency for conducting and supporting medical research.

Guys,

Why are you so upset? As Obama said: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dt6eDFLoi6E

I’d like to know if anyone at NIH in ‘approval chain’ has traveled to Argentina recently.

I am not surprised. A new type of dangerous, pushy minority has now evolved: GAY SUPREMACISTS!

"Just to be fair, this program was started under the Bush administration"

the House went to the democrats in 2006 and there is no line item veto. i don't think Bush gets much of the "credit" for this.
