AIDS in Africa and the Republicans

McCain is commenting on the things we can be proud of.

One of them he wants to take credit for is the fight against AIDS in Africa.

Let it be remembered that when then Secretary of State Colin Powell advocated condoms for the prevention of the disease, he was admonished and ridiculed by Bush and his far right supporters.

By the way, where is Powell now?

Where is McCain? Right in the thick of far right philosophy - bending the facts and his past record to fit the extremes of Bush and Rove.
