Unbelievable. He also says that homosexuality is "glorified", gay kids aren't bullied, and that kids can become gay just by telling them about homosexuality.

This guy certainly lives up to the stereotype of today's Neanderthal Republican. Maybe we should expect to see him running for President in 2016.

Are you serious? Does he not understand that animal to human transmission happened through a BITE, and that ANY sharing of blood or saliva can cause transmission of the disease, no matter who or how you're doing the sharing? I can't believe someone is that ignorant 30 years after the AIDS virus was discovered.

Let's see if this nutjob really stands behind his statements. If he is heterosexual, he should have no problem receiving an injection directly into the bloodstream of a syringe full of the HIV virus. Think of it as a modern version of the Salem witch trials. If he ends up with AIDS, then he must have lied about being heterosexual.

Who are the idiots that don't link inhalant nitrites with AIDS. That's what I want to know.

You all are scientifically naive if you think that you can totally discount "a man screwing a monkey". The senator from Tenn is ignorant only because of his dismissal of all other modes of transmission. His other assertions further ouline his ignorance, however.

You all are guilty of the same close-minded dismissiveness as the senator.

Not only will he stand behind his statements, he's guaranteed to have a lot of support. They'll be speaking up soon, I'm sure.

If that's so, then I guess HIV could have also been sent to us by aliens from another planet.

Because its ridiculous!!!! What monkey, would be considered able to have sex with a human (probably a chimp or gorilla ape-not a spider mondey or baboon) is going to be receptive to sex with a human. those that might be physically able to do it also have their own animal preferences to their own species. I think an unreceptive chimp or gorilla could be deadly dangerous without thinking of aids! Humans are the only animals that would actually seek out other species to mate with anyway. You don't have to be close minded or dismissive to use your brain
