George W. Bush: “The danger to our country is grave.”

I applaud your Governor's response to that tragedy.

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.

America has gone more than seven years without another terrorist attack on our soil. This is a tribute to those who toil night and day to keep us safe.

We learned that bravery is more common than we imagined, emerging with sudden splendor in the face of death.
