Chicago religion reporter Cathleen Falsani, who interviewed Bono for Christianity Today, published this article about the $1B cuts in the promised AIDS funding after talking to TASO volunteer Agnes Nyamayarwo (again, TASO is this book's charity) and getting a late night phone call from outside a certain studio in Dublin last week. I agree with her: "It's sinful to break a promise. And it's just plain cruel to promise help to a dying person and then dawdle, or not follow through."
