As the Senate passes the stimulus package tonight , let’s be real clear that $500 million was included to fund faith-based initiatives and $400 million to fund HIV prevention was eliminated.
Yup, the crazies get a half a billion in taxpayer dollars to proselytize and “legally” discriminate in hiring. And desperately needed funds to fight the epidemic of our lifetime — to prevent more people from becoming infected — are slashed from the bill in the final hours of deliberation.
This is “change you can believe in?” Hell, this is just a continuation of the previous eight tortuous years of the Bushies.
