A day in the life of President Bush (1/29/06): photos
White House & Yahoo News Photos ^ | 1/29/06

Posted on 01/29/2006 2:50:30 PM PST by Wolfstar

PRESIDENTIAL NEWS OF THE DAY: President and Mrs. Bush spent the weekend at the White House where they hosted GWB's parents. The family attended St. John's Episcopal Church this morning before the President went for a mountain bike ride.

Throughout his term, President Bush has sought to break down barriers that have prevented religion-based charities from using government funds. His $15 billion effort to fight AIDS has handed out nearly one-quarter of its grants to religious groups, and officials are aggressively pursuing new church partners that often emphasize disease prevention through abstinence and fidelity over condom use.

Award recipients include a Christian relief organization famous for its televised appeals to feed hungry children, a well-known Catholic charity and a group run by the son of evangelist Billy Graham, according to the State Department.

Secular organizations in Africa are raising concerns that new money to groups without AIDS experience may dilute the impact of Bush's historic three-year-old program.

"We clearly recognize that it is very important to work with faith-based organizations," said Dan Mullins, deputy regional director for southern and western Africa for CARE, one of the best-known humanitarian organizations.

I think that might be the best photo of her that I've ever seen.

I wish someone could find a larger version of it *cough-hint-cough* :)

Jenna teaches at a charter school in DC. I'm not exactly sure which grade - I think it's 3rd.
Both girls are doing good things, IMO. Laura and George have a right to be proud.
