Feds Spent $800,000 of Economic Stimulus on African Genital-Washing Program | CNSnews.com (http://www.cnsnews.com/news/article/75198 - broken link) http://ace.mu.nu/

The National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), a division of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), spent $823,200 of economic stimulus funds in 2009 on a study by a UCLA research team to teach uncircumcised African men how to wash their genitals after having sex.
A million dollars (with interest) of supposed "stimulus" money sent overseas so African men can take care of their dangly bits?
Yeah, I am waiting too....Where are you left leaners, when we need you?
What do you want us to say?
Clearly this is a dumb study. I don't like the implication that circumcision will cure AIDS. I also don't like the implication that not circumcising is primitive. I ALSO don't like the implication that it takes us uncircumcised males more than 5 seconds to learn how to do this. At the same time, the money is NOT leaving our borders. It's paying the salaries of PhD students at UCLA.
This is a misguided use of funds, but are we supposed to say that $800,000 out of $787,000,000,000 means the entire stimulus is a wash? Ask the construction workers in your area who are working on ARRA projects if it was a wash.

No suprise.
Squandering others money is what government does best.
