George W. Bush: “Tax relief has got to be permanent in order to make sure this economy continues to grow.”

Today, we remember your loss, we share your sorrow and we honor the men and women that you have loved so long and so well.

The American economy has consistently proven its strength and resilience in the face of shocks such as natural disasters, high energy prices, and the terrorist attacks of September 11.

You will have an Almighty God to comfort you.

We know our words cannot help, but we believe the prayers of so many Americans will.
