George W. Bush: “In confronting Iraq, the United States is also showing our commitment to effective international institutions.”

Today, we remember your loss, we share your sorrow and we honor the men and women that you have loved so long and so well.

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

Laura and I are fortunate to have known Andrew Wyeth and to have had the pleasure of enjoying his work.

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