George W. Bush: “Social Security has provided a safety net for many retirees, and that's an important safety net.”

Congratulations on becoming our President.

The battles waged by our troops are part of a broader struggle between two dramatically different systems.

We are grateful to the first responders and volunteers who are working to find the missing and comfort the grieving at Camp Mystic and along the Guadalupe.

The actions taken by my Administration in response to the financial crisis have laid the groundwork for a return to economic growth and job creation.
