It's not all about money. I'm pretty sure we have plans drawn out for domestic issues. We can't have a squabble over this kinda decision. Things need to be done for diplomacy and foreign policy to work.
I'm not saying in any way this decision is justified, but the decision is made because we need to keep foreign relations.
Right now, I don't think Bush cares about how Africa spends the money. He cares about how we look helping third world countries.
