That's just a partial list. Here is a story from the Bozeman Daily Chronicle on Greg Mortenson, founder of Pennies For Peace (the same organization President Bush encouraged elementary school children to help collect and donate pennies to).  Mortenson was nominated on January 7, 2009 by both Republican and Democrat members of Congress.  Representative Mary Bono Mack (R-CA) was his sponsor.

Mortenson is the guy who wrote Three Cups of Tea about his experience in Pakistan after falling ill trying to climb K2. He repays the village by building a school and he goes on to build 80+ schools for girls in Pakistan and Afghanistan. Yeah...giving a speech in Cairo is more important than that...
