George W. Bush: “The great strength of our Nation is found in the heroic kindness, courage, and self-sacrifice of the American people.”

That is the America I know.

Mr. Wyeth captured America in his paintings of his native Pennsylvania and Maine.

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.

I applaud your Governor's response to that tragedy.
