George W. Bush: “I'm looking forward to reminding the people that we've got plans to keep the country secure and keep our prosperity…”

Is it in our interest that 25 million people who would have died now live? I think it is. On behalf of a grateful nation, thank you for your hard work and God bless you.

I'm really happy to be back in this great state.

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

This is not mere nostalgia, it is the truest version of ourselves.
