In one of his final actions in the White House, President Bush on Thursday declared Jan. 18 to be “National Sanctity of Human Life Day.”

“All human life is a gift from our creator that is sacred, unique and worthy of protection. On National Sanctity of Human Life Day, our country recognizes that each person, including every person waiting to be born, has a special place and purpose in this world,” reads the presidential proclamation.

“The most basic duty of government is to protect the life of the innocent. My administration has been committed to building a culture of life by vigorously promoting adoption and parental notification laws, opposing federal funding for abortions overseas, encouraging teen abstinence and funding crisis pregnancy programs,” the proclamation continues.

“The sanctity of life is written in the hearts of all men and women. On this day and throughout the year, we aspire to build a society in which every child is welcome in life and protected in law. We also encourage more of our fellow Americans to join our just and noble cause. History tells us that with a cause rooted in our deepest principles and appealing to the best instincts of our citizens, we will prevail.”

Bush is scheduled to deliver a farewell address Thursday night which White House counselor Ed Gillespie described during the morning briefing as “optimistic and future-oriented.”

13. Agreed.
Unlike Bush, Amy has actually contributed something good to society despite being a hot mess.

6. "All life is a gift from our Creator that is sacred, unique, and worthy of protection."
Until they are born, or the nation needs cannon-fodder to maintain an illegal foreign occupation, or until the state decides that it is better off just murdering them.

All animals are equal, but some are more equal than others.

7. Is there no restraint on the verbiage of Presidential proclamations?
"On National Sanctity of Human Life Day, our country recognizes that each person, including every person waiting to be born, has a special place and purpose in this world,"

Such language, if binding, would make even contraception illegal.

12. Karla Faye Tucker Brown
executed by the state of Texas February 3rd 1998

President George W. Bush Publicly Mocked Karla's Clemency Plea
In early August 1999, then Presidential candidate Governor George W. Bush mocked Karla Tucker's plea for clemency during an interview with Talk Magazine. Bush mentioned that he had watched Larry King's interview with Karla Tucker from Texas Death Row.

"I didn't meet with Larry King either when he came down for it," Bush told the magazine. "I watched his interview with (Tucker), though. He asked her real difficult questions, like, `What would you say to Governor Bush?' "

The Talk reporter asked how she answered.
" Please, Bush whimpers, his lips pursed in mock desperation, don't kill me, " according to the magazine.


GOP Presidential Primary Opponent Gary Bauer criticized Bush for these comments.
"I think it is nothing short of unbelievable that the governor of a major state running for president thought it was acceptable to mock a woman he decided to put to death," Bauer said of Bush.

Houston Chronicle, August 11, 1999




Always want to remember those whose lives Ms. Tucker took, this article and post was to emphasize yet another hypocritical, taking out of his ass, point Bush again tries to make. Revisionism is his middle name.
