George W. Bush: “Our goal in America is to do everything we can to help those who hurt.”

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

You've showed the great strength of America through your work—and that is your good heart.

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.

On behalf of the American people, Laura and I offer our sincere condolences to Betsy and the Wyeth family.
