How I wanted this to be true, but  alas:

http://urbanlegends.about.com/library/bl_bush_feces_speech.htm

Comments:   False. President Bush has been known to commit verbal gaffes on
occasion, but  nothing on the order of mistaking the word "feces" for "fetus" 
a
dozen times  in a row in a single speech. I'm not sure it's even humanly
possible.  

As it happens, Bush was in Tampa, Florida on June 16, 2004, the day  before 
this
event supposedly took place, but according to the White House  press log he 
gave
no speeches in Tampa on June 17. 

No such news item  appeared in Newsweek, nor any other venue, for that 
matter. 

It is  clearly a joke.
