George W. Bush: “Iraq will take its place among the world's democracies.”

I know campaigns are stressful and taxing.

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

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

We know our words cannot help, but we believe the prayers of so many Americans will.
