Good to see at least one social program was not cut

Bush's proposed FY2007 budget may cut money for school kids, heating for the poor, medicaid and a host of other social programs, but thank the Lord that it does not cut funds for abstinence programs. $204 million is budgeted for this boondoggle. The budget also calls for $184 million given to faith-based and community organizations for HIV/AIDS medicines. Will this program be treated like similar programs to foreign countries? That is, you don't get the money unless you push abstinence.
