George Bush actually said...

"This is a joyous day for many people around the world, and it's a day for us to reflect on the many blessings in our lives."

"We wish all Americans a peaceful weekend, and we wish our troops all the very best."

"I had a chance to reflect on the great sacrifice that our military and their families are making."

"I prayed for their safety, I prayed for their strength and comfort, and I prayed for peace."
