George W. Bush: “We are hopeful that other APEC nations will eventually join in.”

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.

I'm really happy to be back in this great state.

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.
