Reader Alert: Please have someone standing by with smelling salts in case you don’t make it through the next pararaph without passing out. OK, ready?
Uber liberal news magazine 60 Minutes has produced a segment that praises President George W. Bush.
Seriously. No kidding. For real.
60 Minutes actually credits George Bush with saving millions of lives in Africa thanks to his AIDS efforts. Here’s how the segment is introduced and you can view the entire segment above.
Simon: As President, George W. Bush did something momentous that few of you may know about, something so momentous that it is saving millions of lives and generating goodwill for America around the world. Millions of Africans who`d been dying of AIDS are now living with AIDS, thanks to the Bush program. The U.S. is providing pills to more than two million people with HIV/AIDS, people who could never afford them and who were condemned to die. The medicine not only saves their lives, it permits them to live full lives. We went to Uganda, where AIDS has ravaged the country, killing more than a million people. And where Doctor Peter Mugyenyi, a pioneer against AIDS, told us how grateful he is to Americans for saving his fellow Ugandans.
Mugyenyi: We thank sincerely the American people. They are the people who are saving lives. They are the people who can be proud that lives are being saved on this continent.
Of course, it’s well known that Bush developed his affinity for the Dark Continent while hiding out there to avoid serving in the National Guard.

Hooray for global welfare... government has no business in charity.
David, most have no idea about the concept of global welfare. Because the globalists have their way & manage to give the United Nations REAL power to do all they wish to do, you will see the entire planet as a wefare state, & who do you think would get stuck paying for that? Look into Agenda 21 if you don't believe me.
CAUTION: End of the world Just ahead... 60 Minutes praised a Republican!
Of course, this is only because a neocon wasted a gazillion bucks on a MSM pet issue.
That would be great except for a few major errors of science. HIV does NOT cause acquired immune deficiency 'syndrome' And AIDs is NOT a sexually transmitted disease. HIV is a harmless, ubiquitous 9 kilo-base retrovirus, The so-called 'test' for HIV is not an 'antigen' blood test, but rather an 'antibody' test. It merely indicates that at some time in the recent past you were exposed to it. You might have had a stuffy nose or some other minor symptom, but in all probability you didn't even know you had come in contact with it. The test isn't even used in Africa because of cost. Patients are routinely diagnosed merely on symptoms at initial presentation
'African' AIDs is epidemiologically different the prevalent disease here in the United states which is primarily evidenced among male homosexuals and IV drug addicts. It is based in unsanitary conditions, impure water, rampant unchecked diseases, and lack of proper medical attention.
Initial use of horrendous DNA-chain 'terminator' therapies such as AZT have been responsible for untold deaths. I could go on with point after point of why HIV does not cause AIDs but it would be senseless since the public has been indoctrinated with this concept for more than 30 years by the propaganda of the media and the homosexual lobby in this country and nothing I could say would ever change their minds.
WTH?!
Another one of these nuts.
The last person to try and convince me of this was dead 6 months later.
I was helping to book speakers for debates at my University, and this group from Berkley, CA wanted a send 2 Reps.. They wanted to convince people, themselves mostly, that a.) AIDS is not spread through sexual contact. b.) that HIV is completely Harmless and c.) . that it is actually the Anti Viral Drugs themselves killing HIV+ patients.
These are literally VERY SICK people, living with untreated HIV/AIDS. They are very afraid of dying and in Brainwashed by this Dr. in Berkley. They are a threat to their partners and themselves. I am sure the University would have loved a 2nd debate. Only, 1 of our speakers was dead 6 months later.
Do you have HIV, Doc? Were you infected when you had the sniffle, per chance? From doing SOMETHING, more gay men do that Heterosexual men do, but not Sex? Maybe, Sashaying across a dancefloor?
