WASHINGTON - In six days away from the White House, President Bush (news - web sites) is the star attraction at five events aimed at pulling in cash to help get him re-elected and put other Republicans in office as well.

In between, he'll speak on the economy and on his effort to give religious groups more of a role in federal programs, make good on a two-year-old invitation to host the president of Mexico at his Texas ranch, and even attend a rodeo. Do you think they will allow photos at the rodeo?

But he'll spend the most time shuttling across California and Texas to meet a heavy fund-raising schedule.

His new stump speech for political audiences includes only an allusion to judges who have allowed gay marriages in some states.

"We will not stand for judges who undermine democracy by legislating from the bench, or try to remake the culture of America by court order," he tells fund-raiser crowds these days.

Bush's trip also puts him on the road raising campaign cash the same day that his re-election committee begins airing its first wave of TV commercials. The campaign has bought at least $4.5 million worth of airtime, starting Thursday, aimed primarily at shoring up his popularity with his conservative base and Hispanics.
