tripling funds for fighting AIDS around the world

The Associated Press

WASHINGTON: The House of Representatives voted Thursday to triple money to fight AIDS, malaria and tuberculosis around the world, giving new life and new punch to a program credited with saving or prolonging millions of lives in Africa alone.

The 303-115 vote sends the global AIDS bill to President George W. Bush for his signature. Bush, who floated the idea of a campaign against AIDS in his 2003 State of the Union speech, supports the five-year, $48 billion plan.

Passage of the bill culminated a rare instance of cooperation between the White House and the Democratic-controlled Congress. It was "born out of a willingness to work together and put the United States on the right side of history when it comes to this global pandemic," said Democratic Rep. Barbara Lee, a leader on the issue...

If you would like to be added to the RETHINKING AIDS PING LIST DROP ME A FREEPMAIL.

AIDS is the biggest public health scam in medical history. Like global warming, AIDS is being used to push a powerful leftist political agenda. For over two decades the Public Health Establishment has used your tax dollars and the full power of the federal government to wage a massive propoganda (and intimidation) campaign designed to (A) dupe the American public into believing that HIV is the cause of AIDS (B) scare the public into thinking "we are all at risk" (C) coverup the extreme toxicity of AIDS chemotherapy drugs (which are not just used on "fast-track" gays and junkies, but also given to pregnant mothers, enfants, and other children of all ages) (D) use this fear to push a leftist social agenda that includes socialized medicine, and the promotion of homosexuality and explicit sex "education" to tender-aged school children (E) use their "public health mandate" to bypass the authority of parents and local school boards who object to their social engineering schemes (F) create a massive federal bureaucracy encouraging the use of addictive drugs, to include prescription heroine (G) use threats and intimidation to silence dissenting scientists and to keep the press from covering the debate (H) and finally, to use AIDS as a model to push similar social agendas with respect to future epidemics.

Every single point above can be documented on my profile page.

So what if the deficit is 490 billion? Lets shoot for a trillion a year!

Also see Accuracy in Media's Obama’s $50 Billion AIDS Bill Up for Vote. One of the links on the article led me to the following:

[july4thfreedomfoundation]

I think it’s A-OK to want to fight AIDS, malaria, and tuberculosis around the world, but why does the total cost always fall upon the American taxpayer?

How much money is China kicking in? Saudi Arabia? France? Germany? Japan? Switzerland? The United Arab Emirates? Venezuela? Korea? Do I hear the sound of crickets?

[alloysteel]

We’re WAY past a trillion a year.

What with stealing from the various “trust funds” in the US Treasury, sale of Treasury bonds to foreign governments (to settle our trade deficit) and expanding the authorized debt ceiling to nearly $10 trillion in the dead of night, our built-in future obligations are fast approaching our national net worth, public AND private.

And who is there to bail out the US Treasury? There is no consortium that big in the Universe.

While it is right and good to question the portion of funding for AIDS (medication for those with AIDS) and HIV research, compared to the funding for alleviating or preventing other diseases, and it is also right and good to question why other nations are publicly permitted to NOT share in such funding, in international HIV/AIDS programs, in equal measure to their GDP’s, without major public rebuke,

it is scientifically ignorant to proclaim that the HIV virus does not instigate the cause of AIDS,

just as it is morally and socially ignorant to fail to admit that promiscuous sex is the primary means with which the HIV virus has not died out in the population, and without which it would have died out by now.

[Redbob]

Just another Dimocrat excuse to spend money; they don’t seem to care what it’s for.

[Redbob]

"...it is morally and socially ignorant to fail to admit that promiscuous HOMOSEXUAL sex is the primary means with which the HIV virus has not died out in the population..."

There.
Added the key word that you left out.

[GodGunsGuts]

==it is scientifically ignorant to proclaim that the HIV virus does not instigate the cause of AIDS

I beg to differ. You might want to check the links and videos on my profile page before rushing to judgement. All the best—GGG

[Merta]

Ah so we are funding to help fight against malaria? Why not lots of funding for the relocation of DDT over to there? Oh, that isn’t PC because of Silent Spring and hippies like Joni Mitchell? Too bad. Perhaps those in Africa do not care about leaving the birds and the bees be.

[GodGunsGuts]

Again, check the links on my profile page. There is a growing body scientists and medical doctors who all challenge the HIV/AIDS hypothesis, but have been prevented from the getting the word out to the general public for POLITICAL REASONS. This is most definitely a conservative issue, and the AIDS establishment should be held accountable for their perfidy.

[Mr Ramsbotham]

Science is being completely driven by politics.

[GodGunsGuts]

You hit the nail on the head. This is what happens when government grows to big in any field of human endeavor. First came the POLITICS of AIDS, and now we are fighting the POLITICS of (human-caused) GLOBAL WARMING. Science has nothing to do with it (except in the case of the scientists who are exposing each for the sham that they are). Hope you will check my profile page for more. Just put up the first part of it today. All the best—GGG

[GodGunsGuts]

Again, right on. As with the real cause of AIDS, or the real cause of Global Warming, DDT was taken off the table based on left-wing politics, not science.

[Mr Ramsbotham]

Thanks, and for the record, I've read quite a bit of the material put out by Duesberg and others regarding the HIV hypothesis. I can't pretend to a complete grasp of the science involved, just as I can't pretend to a complete grasp of everything underpinning either side of the global warming debate. But I think I am capable of assimilating the basic arguments of both sides, and Duesberg comes across as very credible. He was and is a brilliant scientist in his own right who had absolutely nothing to gain and everything to lose by fighting the establishment, as opposed to some of your alarmists whose credentials and income are based totally on their pet theories, and whose arguments are almost purely emotive in nature.

One thing's for sure: if tomorrow I were told I had HIV, I'd stay as far away from the medical profession as I possibly could.

[Liberty 275]

I have 2 tings to say:

1: we need to spend OUR money fighting disease in OUR country.
2: We need to spend less on fighting AIDS as it is a disease you can for the most part opt out of getting by not using intravenous drugs, by having a monogamous relationship and by not letting men place their penis into your anus.

More of that money should go to cancer research.

Amen to that! You seem to have done a good deal of research on the topic. Still, you might want to take a look at some of the links I posted on my profile page. I’m not nearly finished constructing the page, but everything I have put up so far is explained in laymen’s terms. There are also some excellent videos linked there as well.

All the best—GGG

[editor-surveyor]

AIDS is big money for the drug pushers, and they rule the world.

[GodGunsGuts]

I wouldn’t say they rule the world. They rule their sphere of influence...and combined with government funded mega-science, they rule the vast majority of scientists (and the MDs that follow their lead).
