All five living past and present U.S. presidents gathered in Dallas for
the dedication of the George W. Bush Presidential Library and Museum Thursday,
an event that saw the men share a rare bond that transcends
partisan differences."There was a time in my life when I wasn't likely
to be found at a library, much less found one," Bush quipped,
before thanking his predecessors and successor for the "kind words" and
the "examples you set."Bush thanked his mother Barbara Bush for teaching
him to live life to the fullest, and his father, the 41st
president, for "teaching me how to be a president ... and how
to be a man."- President Obama on President Bush"Forty-one, it is awesome
that you are here today," he said, drawing a smile from his
88-year-old father, who has battled health problems in recent months.Earlier,
President Obama noted that the exclusive group of current and former presidents
is often viewed as a club, but he said it is "more
of a support group.""No matter how much you think you're ready to
assume the office of the president, its impossible to understand the nature
of the job until its yours," Obama said. "The first thing I
found in that desk was a letter from George. He knew that
I would come to learn what he had learned. That being president
is a humbling job."We know President Bush the man," Obama said. "To
know the man is to like the man. Because hes comfortable in
his own skin. He knows who he is. He doesnt put on

ings -- military,
political, economic -- could not properly be rendered for 50 years or
more.Other aspects of Bush's presidency also loom large, such as the enactment
of across-the-board tax cuts, the expansion of Medicare to include prescription
drug coverage, the No Child Left Behind education reforms and a massive
push to fight AIDS in Africa. A financial collapse also struck at
the end of Bush's tenure, though some trace its origins to the
enactment of deregulatory housing policies in the Clinton era.A Washington
Post/ABC News poll found majorities still disapproving of Bushs handling
of Iraq and the economy, but history offers some hope for Bush
that his standing may rise further.The fact is it's very difficult to
get an accurate assessment of an American presidency, certainly while it's
going on, but even four or five years after it's ended, Knott
said. It took at least 20 years before Truman began to creep
up on those lists of presidential greatness.Fox News Poll: Bush's Favorable
at 49%, Obama 52%

<p style="font-size:xx-small;">Shown here are Federal Premium hollow point bullets.APRepublican Rep. Jason
Chaffetz said Thursday that the Department of Homeland Security is using
roughly 1,000 rounds of ammunition more per person than the U.S. Army,
as he and other lawmakers sharply questioned DHS officials on their "massive"
bullet buys."It is entirely ... inexplicable why the Department of Homeland
Security needs so much ammunition," Chaffetz, R-Utah, said at a hearing.The
hearing itself was unusual, as questions about the department's ammunition
purchases until recently had bubbled largely under the radar -- on blogs
and in the occasional news article. But as the Department of Homeland
Security found itself publicly defending the purchases, lawmakers gradually
showed more interest in the issue.Democratic Rep. John Tierney, D-Mass.,
at the opening of the hearing, ridiculed the concerns as "conspiracy theories"
which have "no place" in the committee room.But Republicans said the purchases
raise "serious" questions about waste and accountability.Chaffetz, who chairs
one of the House oversight subcommittees holding the hearing Thursday, revealed
that the department currently has more than 260 million rounds in stock.
He said the department bought more than 103 million rounds in 2012
and used 116 million that same year -- among roughly 70,000 agents.Comparing
that with the small-arms purchases procured by the U.S. Army, he said
the DHS is churning through between 1,300

find us somehow and try to take [Niko] back by force," she
told FoxNews.com. (Courtesy: Kalli Atteya)Through the slit of the burqa
she wore to blend in on the streets of Alexandria, Egypt, Kalli
Atteya waited and watched until the boy climbed off the school bus.
When she saw him, she moved quickly, grabbing his arm and steering
him toward the waiting motorized cart."Get in," she said to the 12-year-old,
who recognized his mother's piercing blue eyes and obeyed wordlessly.Soon,
they were speeding toward a safehouse where they would wait for three
weeks before returning to the U.S., and ending a 20-month ordeal that
began with another abduction one the boy, Khalil Mohamed Niko Atteya,
did not accept willingly. His father, Mohamed Atteya, who is wanted by
the U.S. authorities, is accused of luring
