George W. Bush: “When we're the most powerful economy in the world, it means our people benefit.”

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

We are heartbroken by the loss of life and the agony so many are feeling.

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

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