George W. Bush: “Congress ought to help not for the sake necessarily of the developers but the sake of the over 300,000 hardhats who will…”

On behalf of the American people, Laura and I offer our sincere condolences to Betsy and the Wyeth family.

The American economy has consistently proven its strength and resilience in the face of shocks such as natural disasters, high energy prices, and the terrorist attacks of September 11.

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.
