Laura Bush defends community organizers -- take that, Sarah Palin Now comes First Lady Laura Bush to praise someone who, well, sounds a lot like a community organizer. In an interview tonight with National Public Radio's All Things Considered, the first lady, who is participating in tomorrow's Service Nation Summit in New York City, told NPR's Robert Siegal that national service "doesn't have to be a government-sponsored" program. And Mrs. Bush singled out for praise a community-based program, Ceasefire Chicago, started by a public health doctor who realized that violence in inner cities is a public health problem. So he set up a program to work with gang members. Siegal: But is he working with people who could qualify as being called community organizers? Mrs. Bush: I don't know if that's exactly what you would call them. I don't know exactly what that is. But I will say he gives former gang members jobs to try to intervene to prevent young people from ruining the rest of their lives because some reason that they'd get into a fight and then end up incarcerated.
