Janet is one smart cookie. I'm glad she's speaking out so strongly.

“So far, there’s no good evidence that condoms will reverse population-wide epidemics like those in sub-Saharan Africa,”

Repeat loud and often. When I was there a poster about abstinance was in every govt office and non profit office.

Amen, sister!

Technically, it doesn't fully protect from HIV, which can be transmitted by blood transfusions, etc.

Being nitpicky. Abstinence should be promoted as the ideal way to combat the spread of HIV. A change of values can be far stronger than simple countermeasures. For example, children are starting to get high on medications, and not only illegal drugs. Simply banning narcotics is about the same as the current, liberal ways of combating HIV. If people were to be morally responsible, then drug use (even with medications) would be reduced, and things such as HIV could be history.

Yet there are people who claim that abstinence won't reduce unwanted pregnancy. Go figure.

I just realised ... this is the country that was once ruled by the evil madmad Idi Amin Dada, one of the bloody XX Century's bloodiest dictators.

My how things change ... the current leadership seem to have their act together.

Why didn't Rick Warren invite her to speak at his AIDS conference instead of Barack Obama?

The program has been harshly condemned by international organizations promoting condom use,

An effective program is harshly condemned. Makes you wonder what the real agenda is of those doing the condemning.

The program has been harshly condemned by international organizations promoting condom use, but in fact Ugandan HIV transmission rates dropped by as much as 75% in some regions after the program was introduced, down to 5-7% from a high of 18%.

Nothing suceeds like success! Good for the First Lady of Uganda sticking to the truth, and not selling these kids the 'you can have it all' bill of goods.

"Janet Museveni, First Lady of Uganda, has continued her strong support for the country’s successful abstinence campaign against HIV/AIDS."

Does that mean not eating one another, too?

Criticism of the West’s emphasis on condom use has been growing, as HIV/AIDS transmission rates show no signs of slowing after years of condom promotion.

Repeating the same mistakes and expecting different results...
