Mark asks…
Why did we spend $823k to teach Africans how to wash themselves?
“The National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) 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.”
Did this help Stimulate our Economy?

Eric answers:
It stimulated the Radical Extreme Leftists who conducted the study.

Chris asks…
Should this child be taken into care?
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2089474/Boy-girl-The-parents-refused-say-FIVE-years-finally-reveal-sex-gender-neutral-child.html?ito=feeds-newsxml
I would personally have the parents sectioned under the mental health act and have this boy put into the care of normal, right minded people. Do you agree?
Eric answers:
They say they do not force him however they encourage him to play with dolls. I believe it’s the same thing for someone at his age. He needs to develop his own personality. Yes it’s true some kids will play with both for a few months. It’s just a phase. But to actually call your child an infant it’s cruel. He is their child not another’s. They should be proud and call him theirs. And I’m sure they do not take him out shopping and the poor kid runs over straight to the girls section. They encourage him….they make him wear girls clothes. The parents buy the clothes!!! They influence him in being like that.
They expect him to come up with a clever answer if he is being bullied at school? To say something clever back to the bully? He just started school. And from his upbringing what is he going to say? ” you should not stereotype. Boys should be allowed to run around in pink dresses with fairy wings on their back and girl should be allowed to storm out of the house with fire truck toys?”
It is an indirect message. I’m not forcing you to be like this but I give you no other choice. And Sasha? May e it’s for both boys and girls but I’m sure people will think of it as a girls name. Later on in life this child will be abused by others verbally.
And yes I do agree with you. The parents should be sectioned.
Congratulation if you read up to here.

Sandra asks…
Ron Artest plans to sell his championship ring for mental-care awareness?
Heres the article, what do you think?

Eric answers:
What up (MG),
Normally i would think it is just hype or a media ploy- but Ron Artest is so unpredicatable… Perhaps he plans on winning more rings — just hard to imagine anyone ever wanting to sell their championship ring — at least it’s for a real good cause- and as crazy as it sounds would say much about the type of guy he is- regardless of how off-centered he can be at times.

Thomas asks…
If Obama says “high income tax cuts cost the govt $x”, what did washing african privates cost us over 10 years?
http://cnsnews.com/news/article/75198
From the story:
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.
Eric answers:
Boy is that not responsible government. I can not believe that we would spend money on that if these people can not learn to wash their private parts in all the years man has been on earth they are not capable of running any country. My cat cleans himself and it did not cost money to teach him. What did they really blow the money on…
