George W. Bush: “I say it's pure politics.”

Congratulations on becoming our President.

We are grateful to the first responders and volunteers who are working to find the missing and comfort the grieving at Camp Mystic and along the Guadalupe.

The actions taken by my Administration in response to the financial crisis have laid the groundwork for a return to economic growth and job creation.

Is it in our national interests that 25 million people who would have died now live? I think it is, and so do you.
