George W. Bush: “One of the great things about democracy is to honor minority rights.”

That is the America I know.

Being your President was a high privilege, and the honor of a lifetime.

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.

Is it in our interest that 25 million people who would have died now live? I think it is. On behalf of a grateful nation, thank you for your hard work and God bless you.
