Elizabeth Dole Proposes to Memorialize Jesse Helms on New HIV/AIDS Bill

http://annoyinghandle.livejournal.com/208347.htmlThis week, the Senate considers S. 2731, the Tom Lantos and Henry J. Hyde United States Global Leadership Against HIV/AIDS, Tuberculosis, and Malaria Reauthorization Act of 2008. The bill would authorize spending for fiscal years 2009 through 2013 to provide assistance to foreign countries to combat HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis, and malaria.
On Monday, Elizabeth Dole (R-DOES NOTHING) proposed an amendment to add Jesse Helms' name to those legislators honored in the title of the bill.
To echo
annoyinghandle, Jesse Fucking Helms.
Unbelievable.
