George W. Bush: “We owe a lasting debt to those who sacrificed their lives while serving and protecting our fellow citizens.”

On this day of prayer, Laura and I are holding up our fellow Texans who are hurting.

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.

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

That is the America I know.
