"These attacks in East Africa stand as testament to Al Qaida's commitment to use unspeakable violence to kill innocent men, women, and children, regardless of their religion, race, or nationality."

"We join with our friends and allies in advancing peace and security for Americans, Kenyans, Tanzanians, and all people in building a world that is worthy of the legacy of the victims of these bombings..."

"Our urgent mission has to be getting this economy growing faster and creating more jobs."

"All Americans are united in support of our men and women in uniform, who serve so that we can live in freedom and security."
