George W. Bush: “Alcohol and drug addiction exacts a devastating toll on our Nation.”

Is it in our national interests that 25 million people who would have died now live? I think it is, and so do you.

If any voters came hoping for a kind word and a hug, they’d have to settle for the kind word.

Violence and vitriol must be purged from the public square. Members of other political parties are not our enemies; they are our fellow citizens.

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