"Barbara Bush, one of President Bush's twin daughters, has been working in near anonymity as a volunteer. "
Not anymore!
good for her! and such a pretty young woman! I'd date her if I could! =P

Interesting how the MSM would let her deeds go unnoticed though; if it was a Dim's kid, they would be all over it like stink on a Dim.
Yes, and now she'll likely have to move elsewhere or become a security nightmare.
It actually sounds like she is trying not to be noticed.
I hope there are adequate security provisions. Given the reports on crime levels in SA, one would think that her decision might be suboptimal.
"Yes, and now she'll likely have to move elsewhere or become a security nightmare."
Yep. BAD article, IMO. Nice to shine some light on positive behavior, but giving away her location is the height of stupidity, not that I expect much more from a 'journalist'.
Well, the LeftStream Media is the intelligence arm of the terrorists, and these news stories are their field reports.
Your comment recalled a brief flash of Clinton, walking into Sunday services with a five pound Bible in his hand for the photo-op.
The cost of the security for her trip certainly outweighs any good her choice of a cause and location may have done.
God bless these men and women who look over her and keep her safe, and God bless Barbara for her good heart.
I disagree. Her involvement will bring a bright PR spotlight on this need.
On an unrelated note, where can I sign up to volunteer in South Africa?
Couldn't see the picture but I saw that it was a pic of Chelsea. Big diff for sure!!
So, I guess, she just sits in the White House so some can claim that she is sponging off the government and is a lazy no-good.
sometimes I wonder if people who post here stop and think before doing it. So there is a security cost. If she is able to help and our media has created a situation where there is no private life for the daughter of a President, is she to stop helping people because of the cost? If she helps and at sometime in the future is able to lead a discussion about African needs - because she was there, then the left can't cry that Republicans don't care. There is no down side to her help to these poor people.
