Frontline's continuing its second part on AIDS

[joemurphy]

It is very, very good television. I urge you to take a look.

1. I'm watching. Part I was fantastic last night.

This is the best that journalism can be!

[Warpy]

2. Last night was SCATHING

It's really too bad they couldn't do the same thing DURING those dismal Reagan years when Ronnie napped through the disaster while he cronies stole us all blind.

I had a really good anger going last night, remembering all the people I took care of in the mid 80s, dying horribly of AIDS, who might be alive today if that man hadn't been in office.

3. OMG, Clinton was so different- he actually allowed dissenters

in his press conferences.

[Olney Blue]

4. They are talking about the development of combined drug therapy now.

[joemurphy]

5. Amazing stuff, eh. Hastert speaking against needle exchanges

at a time when 40% of new AIDS cases came from intravenous drug use.

[Olney Blue]

6. Clinton struggled with a Republican congress who put AIDS

in moralistic terms.

Donna Shalala disagreed with Clinton not standing up to Congress.

Gore at the Security Council.

[Olney Blue]

7. Kick. This is an amazing program.

[joemurphy]

8. Mbeki's speech at the Durban AIDS Conference - HIV/AIDS

is not caused by a virus. Watching the South African doctor crying in disbelief. So horrible.

[Olney Blue]

10. It's heartbreaking. And the U.S. policy of teaching "abstinence" and not

condoms, is just as wrong.

[joemurphy]

9. Sam Brownback pushing abstinence instead of condoms.

Amazing.

[Amaya]

11. this program is making me angry

:grr:

[joemurphy]

12. Sometimes it makes my blood boil. Sometimes it makes me

cry.

[Olney Blue]

13. Me too.
