"Our Declaration of Independence states that our freedom rests on self-evident truths about the dignity of the human person,” the president said. “Throughout our nation's history, Catholic Americans have embraced, sustained, and given their lives to defend these truths.”
“This morning, we give thanks for the blessings of freedom, and we ask Almighty God to guide us as we renew our founding promise of liberty and justice for all.”
“Renewing the promise of America,” Bush said, “begins with upholding the dignity of human life.”
Bush has promised to veto and bill expanding embryonic stem cell research.
