Bush Raises Cash for GOP
By BEN FELLER
OMAHA, Neb. (AP) —
President Bush, on a Midwestern trip to raise Republican cash, stopped
by a health clinic Wednesday long enough to tout the benefits of
community help for the poor.
The main purpose of Bush's travels was a fundraiser for his former
agriculture secretary, Mike Johanns, a Senate candidate in Nebraska.
Johanns left Bush's Cabinet in September to seek the seat being
vacated by fellow Republican Chuck Hagel.

SKS assault rifle they found at the scene.
