A day in the life of President Bush (1/29/06): photos

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.

ROFLMAO!!! Great work, Jonny. Leave it to dead to be the first person to crack a joke about the misspellings:

Beebers bring tiajunna stress. Every customs agent would be stuned by this.

I guess the fuzzier the mic the more sensitive it is (?)

Rim shot!

You can't be SERIES!

Search keyword "beeber" and you'll find lots of fun threads--mostly ZOTs :-D

[ilovew]

Great! I'll do that after I finish reading the first thread. Thanks for the suggestion :P

What's your "beeper" got to do with anything? ;)

i notce Barbara has been quite active in the traveling and photo-ops, but Jenna has been conspicuously absent. I guess it's not Jenna's bag to do that kind of thing, or maybe it doesn't fit in her schedule.

And that's "beeber" with a "b" < /nose in the air>

Thanks for that, jonny .. I missed that thread, too .. always wondered about its comical roots. "tiajunna Mexico" .. LOLOLOL!! Hysterical. And they say language skills aren't deteriorating ... hehehe. I'm laughing at how it looks, but it's pretty sad.

Jenna teaches at a school in DC. She probably can't get away as often as Barbara.

Didn't know that. What grade does she teach? And where?

[STARWISE]

Too funny ... those misspelled, out of context and blue threads crack me up.

[snugs]

I have noticed LOL - thanks Jonny for the link

[snugs]

I think one of the best photos of Jenna was before she started teaching when she accompanied her mother on a trip and they visited an AID's centre.
