George Clooney And President Bush Become Voices For Louisiana
President George W Bush and actor George Clooney have joined forced to help rebuild a Louisiana hospital destroyed by Hurricane Rita.

Bush yesterday presented officials with a $2million donation on behalf of the Bush-Clinton Katrina Fund that will go towards operating costs once the hospital is rebuilt.

While in Louisiana Bush said "I know there's been a lot of tears shed over the past year,"

�Hurricane Rita, like Hurricane Katrina, showed us the very worst in nature but they've also brought out the best in our human nature.�

Clooney added: "There is good news in all of this, which is that when the hospital gets up and running, I will not be doing any of the medical procedures,"

"I'm coming to remind people in the rest of the country that just because you're not on the front page anymore, all the problems that have been placed here from Katrina and Rita are not solved yet."
