George W. Bush: “The United States Navy carries the might and the mission of America to the farthest parts of this world.”

That is the America I know.

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

Those who have lost their precious children are facing a grief no parents should ever know.

We know our words cannot help, but we believe the prayers of so many Americans will.
