		<description>And to MsJoanne -- 

Statement 25 is the TRUTH, but brain dead imbiciles like yourself seem to really think that Bush is singularly responsible for the disease AIDS and therefore anything said about how gay men are spreading it faster than ANY OTHER segement of the population must be a Right Wing conspiracy.

You just keep thinking that, as you do nothing more then prove beyond any shread of doubt that the liberal left&#039;s collective stupidity is surpassed only by their intellectual dishonesty.</description>

		<description>ForTruth, the surgeon general helps set policies and makes decisions about healthcare related topics.  I would think he would also have input as to the kinds of things that are taught relating to health.  

Can you imagine?  Post 25 is a perfect example of the kinds of dribble that you could expect from this troglodyte as our surgeon general.  Sounds as if the head of the CDC (if that is even a real post) has already been politicized, as has every other agency that is supposed to protect us (you know, FDA, EPA, all those who are in the pocket of this pathetic administration).

It is no less important.  And I called about not confirming this bozo.

		<description>I don&#039;t agree with this appointment, however, WTF impact does the surgeon general really have on our day to day lives? We see an infrequent message on the TV from the Surgeon General. We see that he leaves notes on cigarette packaging for us. 

What else does he/she really do?</description>

		<description>Back to Holsinger &gt; if the Democrat Senators had spines, then he would NOT be confirmed, but about half the Dems in the Senate are jellyfish, so they will vote for him. For example Feinstein will say she is troubled about the nomination, but then will vote for him. Levin will talk big, but then vote for him. Biden will blabber about it and then vote for him. LIEberman will definately vote for him.</description>

		<description>WASHINGTON - A particularly serious form of the sexually transmitted bacterial disease syphilis has been detected in gay and bisexual U.S. men infected with the AIDS virus, federal health officials reported on Thursday.

The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention tracked 49 HIV-infected gay and bisexual men who had â€œsymptomatic early neurosyphilisâ€ from January 2002 to June 2004 in four cities â€” Los Angeles, San Diego, Chicago, New York.

The CDC cited the report as further evidence that gay and bisexual men, many also infected with HIV, are the driving force behind increases in U.S. syphilis cases this decade.


The findings also indicate that these men are engaging in the same risky, unprotected sex that can spread the human immunodeficiency virus, which causes AIDS.

â€œThese are primarily infections that people are probably getting because theyâ€™re not using condoms,â€ said Dr. Thomas Peterman of the CDCâ€™s Division of STD Prevention, an author of the report.

In some instances, the men involved have the attitude that they do not need safe-sex practices because they already are infected with HIV, Peterman said.


The most at-risk people for AIDS are gays and drug abusers.</description>

		<description>We are the only developed nation without national health care. Its coming, don&#039;t resist. Greed is the biggest barrier yet to overcome. 

The best argument the trolls have is that the government won&#039;t be able to do a good job at it, just look at Walter Reed. 

The difference is, Walter Reed is in a closed system, a subculture of people who have to follow orders and have no power, the military. 

That would not happen in the general populace, way different culture than the military.</description>

As far as I could tell, the topic of the thread was the homophobic, anti-science nominee that Bush has presented for Surgeon General.</description>

		<description>Universal Healthcare is for everyone who cannot afford to pay for expensive operations. Those who can afford to pay can opt out of the system and contract a doctor to do their surgery. The wealthy would continue to see their expensive physicians.</description>

		<description>Hey! Ignore these comments. We don&#039;t want socialized medicine! You will grow warts if you vote for it. The cigarette companies are right, smoking poses NO threats and yet we are the victims of all these lawsuits. Please help us!</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;Jeez, sheâ€™s lucky. Here in the good ole USA, I waited 15 months for my MRI, and even then it was a half ass job.

Hell, You&#039;re lucky. My health care completely refused mine until my Dad refinanced his house just to pay for one. And it did find just what it the Doctor suspected. Currently, we have a lawsuit against the HMO.</description>
