Hi lizzy1234:
Thanks for the interesting question.
To answer your question, I went to the following listing of the Bush
Administration.
The Politics1 Guide to the Bush Administration Cabinet
URL: http://www.politics1.com/cabinet.htm
I then checked each person on this page by doing a search on:
"PERSON NAME" catholic
My research showed that the following members of the Bush
Administration are Catholic.
Tommy Thompson - Secretary of Health and Human Services

Quote: "Thompson, 54, is still worth considering. A Catholic and the
state's longest-serving governor (10 years), he's on the cutting edge
of GOP politics."

Tom Ridge attended Harvard Law School on a scholarship and graduated
with honors in 1967. He is a decorated Vietnam veteran, who served as
a Congressman for twelve years before becoming governor of
Pennsylvania in 1994. As governor, he introduced a conservative
agenda of tax cuts and tight spending. He is a Roman Catholic and
Member of the Knights of Columbus, although he supports abortion
"rights" for women."
