Mazal tov, but that has nothing to do with Bush reneging on his promise by
making a splashy announcement about increasing American contributions to the
fight against AIDS and then not actually asking Congress for any additional
money. He always makes these feel-good announcements to get the publicity benefit,
then, after the press and public have turned their attention elsewhere,
quietly forgetting all about actually requesting any of the promised money.
