Opinari.net
Opinari - Latin term for Opinion. Opinari.net is just what it seems: a cornucopia of rants, raves and poignant soliloquy. |

Today's most poignant refutation of revisionist history goes to Say Uncle, who takes issue with the left's contention that Reagan did nothing to fund AIDS research.
One claim is that Reagan didn't fund aids, or didn't fund it enough, or basically that he was pressured to fund it, or he didn't do it quickly enough. Not true. Under Reagan's presidency, almost $6B was spent on AIDS and it started as early as 1981. The other claim is that Reagan didn't mention it in public until 1987. He signed the funding into law in 1981 so I'd say that's acknowledging it.
Amen.Labels: Archives_2004
