A San Francisco official has accused Dr. Julie Gerberding, director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, of presiding over a political "witch hunt" for conducting an inquiry into the effectiveness of AIDS-prevention programs in that city.

"I am seethingly angry that this witch hunt is being presided over by a CDC director who is a doctor on leave from [the University of California at San Francisco]," Luke Adams, a policy analyst in the Mayor's Office of AIDS & HIV Policy, wrote in an Internet message to a homosexual group. "She is a scientist who KNOWS BETTER, and is obviously playing political games on behalf of the Bush administration and certain members of Congress. I am appalled that they are willing to risk lives to attempt to drum up political capital."

When you have no facts to back your pet cause, throw up a smokescreen of bullsh*t. "Help, help, we're being oppressed!"

"I am furious that the CDC is even considering scrutinizing the programs"

Looks like somebody's hands have been in the cookie jar.

"I am furious that the CDC is even considering scrutinizing the programs," Mr. Adams wrote in a message to the Gay Men's Health Summit discussion group."

There you have it. Homos are beyond reproach, they and their programs are off limits, no criticism allowed, they are special. But of course that’s what they've been trying to convince us of for the last ten years.

Perhaps the real intent of the program is to help kill gays and no one wishes to be found out. It is obvious that promoting safe sex (which doesn't exist) is only going to result in a higher body count. That is what appears to be going on out there in SF.

An absolute truth: Every time you find someone using the term "witch hunt" that person is lying or is hiding something.

seethingly angry, furious, appalled, disgusted ... that taxpayer funded "workshops" are being targeted! My goodness - the Bush Administration's behavior is reprehensible and despicable!! "Behavior" is the subject here - and had the WTimes bothered to list and describe more of these so-called workshops.... well, the reader could easily choose where to properly direct all these adjectives. How twisted!!

Let me propose a AIDS prevention program for them.

Practive homosexual behavior: Get AIDS
Don't practice homosexual behavior: Don't get AIDS

Put that on the sides of all the buses and the bus shelters, trolley cars etc and then we can ignore the whole thing. If they catch it it's because they choose to catch it and then they are on their own. (unless they can prove that they got it from a transfusion or a rape or some other non-voluntary means)

It's about time we stop sheltering these perverts and start holding them accountable for their own behavior

God Save America (Please)

Bingo. I'm tired of paying taxes for stupid anti-AIDS programs. Everyone knows where it comes from and how not to get it.
