Michael Peroutka at March for Life Rally (January 21, 2004)

"Michael Anthony Peroutka spoke with supporters and delivered remarks at the 31st annual March for Life in Washington, D.C.

Michael Peroutka is 100% Pro-life, no exceptions.

Below is an excerpt from his announcement speech:

"Abortion is also a part of the attack on the family. Our current President has failed to lead on this premier moral issue of our time – which is the systematic slaughter of innocent, defenseless, unborn children in the womb.

For example, he has approved legislation to send additional scores of millions of tax dollars to Planned Parenthood and other groups which promote additional infanticide.

He has failed to stop the Food and Drug Administration from authorizing the distribution of RU 486, the abortion pill which has already been used to snuff out the lives of thousands of unborn children, even as it has placed at risk the lives and health of mothers who have decided to kill their own children.

I was present just weeks ago at the 31st annual March for Life in Washington DC when the President, by telephone, told the marchers that theirs was a noble cause. He said we must remind our fellow citizens that all human life is sacred and worthy of protection.

But in his State of the Union Speech – just two days before – a speech watched by millions of our fellow citizens – Mr. Bush reminded us of no such thing. The word “abortion” did not pass his lips. He said nothing about the sacredness of human life – though he did take time to demand that athletes stop taking steroids.

As President, I would do everything in my power to end the national disgrace of abortion. Starting with a formal acknowledgment of the person-hood of every child from the moment of conception – and the appointment of U.S. Attorneys, by recess appointment if necessary, who will enforce the Fifth Amendment requirement that no person be deprived of life without due process of law.

As President, I would advocate a total ban on all abortions and a total ban on any federal funding of abortions, here or abroad."
