Laura Bush, Condoleezza Rice Awarded

[NVMojo]

Of course it is Kuwait who recognizes them ...a no brainer.

WASHINGTON (AP) - First lady Laura Bush, actor Michael Douglas and Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice were honored Wednesday in recognition of International Women's Day and The United Nations Children's Fund 60th anniversary.

The Kuwait-America Foundation, which sponsored the event to benefit UNICEF, awarded Bush its humanitarian award, Rice its public service award and Douglas its private citizen's award for their efforts on behalf of improving the education of girls in Afghanistan.

"I believe that women everywhere share the same dreams; to be educated, to live in peace, to enjoy good health, to be prosperous and to be heard," Bush said in her acceptance speech. "And, of course, these dreams start with the education of girls."

"I believe that women everywhere share the same dreams; to be educated, to live in peace, to enjoy good health, to be prosperous and to be heard," Bush said in her acceptance speech. "And, of course, these dreams start with the education of girls."

15. Condi awarded for women's day? That's just wierd.

What exactly has she done to advance women???? Apologist for countries that abuse women? a willing architect of the iraq war that killed thousands and thousands of women and girls? Went SHOE SHOPPING while women and children died in New Orleans??

16. I guess Kuwait wants something.

Or is paying for something they already got.

This can't possibly have anything to do with the condition of women in Afghanistan.

17. Well, they both think they are Bush's wife

So, they might as well share the delusion that they are humanitarians as well. The rest of the world knows better.

If only Laura's ex-boyfriend could have survived to see this day...
