I can't think of a single non-christian organization that's gotten any of this federal money, though you'd think they'd have some token grants in there just to look good.
Why not just change the name to Christian Based Initiatives?

That would exclude Atheism as a Faith Based initiative. You do understand you have to use Faith to believe Atheism to be true. Science cannot prove a negative but a negative can exist. Read darwinism refuted.com. Thus, faith is all Atheism has.

I am afraid I've never read the initiative. So what could I say that would be informative, though this I will say:
How many people are going to comment on it out of pure ignorance?

Excellent point.
I wonder if any Buddhist, Hindu, Unitarian or other non-Christian faiths have applied for grants and been turned down?
Or if any have actually recieved money and we are just unaware?

I have wondered about that, whether or not say, Jewish organizations, or hare Krishnas or Buddhist organizations can get a faith based grant.

Because the people in the white house are about as far from Christians as you can get.

It would seem as though they should. Since everybody knows full well that they won't go Islam and only focus on christianity and sometimes Judaism.

It should be called taxpayer rip off office.

That would require them being honest and you know how this administration feels about that.
