Well, their fans are as dumb as they are, so why not?

This is not a shot at those with AIDS/HIV but just a simple question:

Is AIDS preventable??

"We're trying to sort of make the remark: Why do we care so much about the death of one celebrity as opposed to millions and millions of people dying in the place that we're all from?" said Leigh Blake, the president and co-founder of ‘Keep a Child Alive.’

50 million+ kids dead in America from abortion and the Left never sees any reason to change course.

I wonder how much $$$ these “celebs” have taken out of their personal pockets for the cause? Seems to me that with the name involved, they could come up with $1m pretty easily amongst themselves.

I am so torn here — if there were ever a reason to NOT donate to a charity, this would SO be it!

I think this is a great idea. People will pay millions just to get these morons to shut up.

They are hiding behind children with AIDS in this one. Hollywood finally found a reason to like kids. Apart from the older directors and recording stars who have “playgrounds” at home.

Can’t fault the kids for contracting the disease. Then again, they are the innocent victims of abortion as well which is preventable.

Money isn’t the solution. The Act Up activists blamed Reagan for “not doing enough”. 3 decades later there still is no cure. Preventative measures like closing the gay bathhouses were called “mean”, “cruel”, “homophobic”.

Many celebrities sleep around with abandon, promote the perversion of homosexual practices and appear in promiscuous and hyper-sexed forms of ‘entertainment’.

Then they turn around and promote AIDS awareness?

Only in to Hollyweird...
