U.S. syphilis rate up for 7th year in row, CDC says

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The U.S. syphilis rate rose for the seventh straight year in 2007, driven by a continued surge in cases among homosexual and bisexual men, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said on Wednesday.

Since 2000, when the national syphilis rate sank to a low of 2.1 per 100,000 people after a decade of progress in the 1990s, the rate has soared by 76 percent, the CDC reported.

Homosexual and bisexual men accounted for 64 percent of syphilis cases in 2007, up from about 5 percent in 1999.

Also I saw 25% of girls under 18 have at least one STD - 50% of black girls

That is a bit Orwellian too if you ask me. I still want to know if he used any public funds? Wonder if they can get him for using security inappropriately?

I tend to believe they've got enough on him to indict, otherwise why would he resign? And what kind of sweet deal did he make with the prosecutor's office?
