Terrific cartoon from Tom Tomorrow shows alarming evidence that some on the left are intelligent and even … funny. It’s about arsenic, and captures the idiocy of the Democrats’ p.r. war on the issue in the first hundred days. Check it out.
THE LEFT AND AIDS: More signs of intelligent life – this time from Anthony Lewis, the columnist who only recently blamed most of the AIDS crisis on greedy multinational pharmaceutical companies. It seems like he’s been doing some reading, lately. How else to explain the following sentence: “Giving up a legal battle in South Africa, the major international drug companies have agreed to make drugs available at very low prices. But there are still daunting obstacles to the use of those drugs on the scale needed, including the lack of adequate health infrastructures to administer complex dosages.” Thanks, Tony, for a belated recognition of reality. Now get to work pointing out how the South African government is still offically skeptical of the HIV and AIDS connection, and has no intention of distributing anti-HIV drugs of any kind. Is that Merck’s fault as well?
