Dave Brownlow, the Constitution Party’s candidate for U.S. Senate in Oregon, has issued a statement criticizing the Senate’s recent 80-16 vote to triple foreign aid to fight AIDS in Africa.
“While it is admirable for the U.S. Senate to show $48 billion worth of compassion for the people of Africa, there is a little matter of the U.S. Constitution that stands in the way of the American taxpayers being forced to join the Senate in their generosity,” says Brownlow. “As usual, both the Republicans and the Democrats joined forces in a landslide effort to raid the U.S. Treasury -– further evidence that our two-party system is nothing but an elaborate charade.”
Both of Oregon’s U.S. Senators — Republican Gordon Smith and Democrat Ron Wyden — were among the 80 yes votes.
“Gordon Smith has every right to spend his vast personal wealth any way he chooses -– whether it be for another mansion, a million-dollar set of golf clubs, or for fighting AIDS in Africa,” says Brownlow. “However, for the last 12 years, he has proven beyond any doubt that he cannot be trusted to protect the wealth of the average Oregonian.”
I’d like to read more on the AIDS subject as well. I suspect it’s something else entirely. Anyone have any good reading on it? It’s hard to find decent articles or research online for topics like that. Kind of like looking up Abraham Lincoln or Hitler/Holocaust.
Gene – Care to elaborate?
I’m not challenging you, either.
A lot of stuff doesn’t add up.
Take the Tommy Morrison story, for example.
Plus, what’s with the difference between African AIDS and American AIDS? Why is it that heterosexual non-drug users have an extremely, extremely low rate of HIV/AIDS acquisition, while in Africa, it is super rampant?
This is an ultra-taboo subject, of course.
I’m still not convinced AIDS even exists…especially African AIDS.
BRAVO! That $48,000,000,000 is not their money to give away. We are speeding toward a cliff people. It is not only time to apply the brakes, it’s time to turn the vehicle around. Let the Ds and Rs plunge to their DEATHS alone!
There are some who will tell you the powers that be placed aids all over Africa and let it spread. Now they want us, the taxpayer, to further bankrupt ourselves sending money down a sewage line…
