The White House of USA

President Bush on Monday said, “A few moments ago I signed legislation that funds our troops who are in harm’s way. Our nation has no greater responsibility than supporting our men and women in uniform — especially since we’re at war. This is a responsibility all of us in Washington share — not as Republicans or Democrats, but as Americans. And I want to thank leaders of the House and Senate for getting this bill to my office.”

The President today declared an emergency exists in the State of California and ordered Federal aid to supplement State and local response efforts in the area struck by wildfires beginning on June 20, 2008, and continuing.

Esta semana la Oficina de Iniciativas Basadas en la Fe y Comunitarias de la Casa Blanca celebró una conferencia para destacar la labor que llevan a cabo los ejércitos de compasión de nuestra Nación, con ayuda del gobierno federal. Esta conferencia demostró la gran diferencia que estos grupos han hecho en los últimos ocho años.

On Friday, the Mugabe regime held a sham election that ignored the will of the people of Zimbabwe. The international community has condemned the Mugabe regime’s ruthless campaign of politically-motivated violence and intimidation with a strong and unified voice that makes clear that yesterday’s election was in no way free and fair. Any legitimate government of Zimbabwe must represent the interests of all its citizens and the outcome of the March 29 elections.

In his weekly radio address, President Bush said, “This week, the White House Office of Faith-Based and Community Initiatives held a conference to highlight the work being done by our Nation’s armies of compassion, with help from the Federal government. This conference demonstrated the remarkable difference these groups have made over the past eight years.”
