George W. Bush: “America is proud of its part in the great story of the Filipino people.”

Violence and vitriol must be purged from the public square. Members of other political parties are not our enemies; they are our fellow citizens.

Being your President was a high privilege, and the honor of a lifetime.

Congratulations on becoming our President.

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.
