President Bush understands the importance of conveying America's message to the world. The Office of Global Communications (OGC) was formed in 2002 to coordinate strategic communications overseas that integrate the President's themes while truthfully depicting America and Administration policies.
Distinguished guests, ladies and gentlemen:
Laura and I are grateful for the warm hospitality we have received these past three days in the
Republic of Turkey.
Good afternoon. Earlier today, 15 months after the liberation of Iraq, and two days ahead of schedule,
the world witnessed the arrival of a free and sovereign Iraqi government.
MR. McCLELLAN: All right, good morning. This is a background briefing of senior administration
officials, and I'll just turn it over to the senior administration official to give you kind of --
White House and administration perspective on today's events.
President Bush believes in the non-negotiable demands of human dignity for all people everywhere.
"No nation owns these aspirations, and no nation is exempt from them.
We have no intention of imposing our culture. But America will always
stand firm for the non-negotiable demands of human dignity."
They are:
Limited Government Power
Rule of Law
Equal Justice
Respect for Women
Freedom of Speech
Religious Tolerance
Private Property
"All fathers and mothers, in all societies, want their children to be educated, and live free from poverty and violence."
