David Kuo, former Bush White House official, dies


J. David Kuo, an evangelical Christian conservative and former top official of President George W. Bush’s faith-based initiative who attracted wide attention when he accused the administration of failing to live up to the values it espoused, died April 5 in Charlotte. He was 44.
He had brain cancer that was diagnosed a decade ago, his wife, Kimberly, said.

The arc of Mr. Kuo’s life and career had taken him from liberal to conservative, from hard-edged Republican activism in the 1990s to disillusionment with the idea that politics could serve as an extension of his faith.
