#2 Yeah, and lift the ban on people with treatment resistant tuberculosis too!!!
No fair discriminating against them either!

#3 That's $25,000/year per patient of taxpayer money for the 25 years an AIDS patient is expected to live. How many of the 5 or 6 million annual new HIV cases will try to claim asylum in the US because the suffer discrimination in their country. 25 years of free care in the US beats the hell out of dying in 2 back home.

$50 billion foreign aid HIV treatment over 5 years is near the entire budget that the US spends on HIV. The US could spend $500 billion and it would make less than zero difference without getting people to change their selfish behaviors that transmit the infection. Even worse, it would increase the infection rate as many more infected would be healthy enough to spread the infection even faster.

#4 Wonder if the Americans that these AIDS immigrants will infect can sue Kerry and Smith for the death sentence imposed upon them? Or sue Tereza since she has the big bucks and will bet this is her idea since Jahn hasn't had one since slandering his comrades for personal political gain.

#5 Is this the type of AIDS activity Reverend Jeremiah Wright was referring to?

#6 Is there no end to the creative ways our Congress can figure out to spend hard earned American taxpayer money? I suggest getting the economy straightened out before they consider a new and creative way to spend American dollars. How about declaring a moratorium on new bills that require money? How about Kerry coughing up some of his wife's bucks through her charity?
