President Bush called in a brief statement, marchers they were telling the gathered for "a noble cause." "The right to life does not come from government, it comes from the creator of life," the president said by telephone from Roswell, N.M., where he was wrapping up a two-da- y trip. Terry McAuliffe, chairman of the Democratic National Committee, said abortion rights were at risk because of Bush's decisions, "from stacking the federal judiciary with proponents, to executive orders, to regulations, to restrictive legislation and key political apanti-choi- ce pointments." two-doz- en zealots want to impose their views and theology on the rest of us, and that's just not right," said Gloria Feldt, president of the Planned Parenthood Federation of America. Outside the Supreme Court, Luana Stoltem-ber43, of Davenport, Iowa, held the "regret" sign. She said abortions had contributed to her inability to have children when she wanted them. She later adopted. "Anti-choi- g, said they largely focused on lobbying on Capitol Hill for legislation to reverse limits on reproductive freedom imposed since 1973. Democratic candidates criticize Bush before N.H. primary defend" cutting taxes on the wealthy "instead of giving all Americans health care and education so no child is truly left behind, that's a fight we deserve to have, that's a fight we will win," the Massachusetts senator said. Dean, the former Vermont governor, renewed his call to repeal all of Bush's tax cuts, a position that places him apart from Kerry, Lieberman and Sen. John Edwards, all of whom want to retain cuts for the middle class. As he has argued before, Dean said there was "no middle-clas- s tax cut in this country.

Kerry, who is enjoying a large bounce in the polls in the days since his Iowa caucus win, said he welcomed a debate with Bush in the general election over tax cuts, even if Republicans accuse the Democrat of voting to raise taxes and increase federal spending by billions. "If President Bush wants to stand beside me and tenders criticized President Bush over tax cuts and postwar Iraq in campaign debate Thursday night, claiming his policies have shortchanged the middle class and burdened troops called up by the thousands for overseas duty.

"Abortion kills more people than war," said Andrew Marshall, who traveled with his family and a Catholic youth group from McMurrey, Pa. "We're trying to win a war in America, it's a war to stop abortion." The day of activism including events both for and against the court's 1973 ruling in Roe v. Wade began with a mass and Catholic attended rally by nearly bishops and a crowd of about 15,000, most of them teenagers. "The theme of this day is human life and human dignity," Cardinal Justin F. Rigali, archbishop of Philadelphia, said before the rally.

Mike Leavitt last November after President Bush tapped him as head of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. Walker was Leavitt's lieutenant governor for 11 years.
