George W. Bush: “I always love Louisiana, and I love the people of Louisiana.”

I applaud your Governor's response to that tragedy.

To you and the honored dead, our country is forever grateful.

what America does for itself has made it strong--but what America does for others has made it great.

Is it in our interest that 25 million people who would have died now live? I think it is. On behalf of a grateful nation, thank you for your hard work and God bless you.
