George W. Bush: “The Cuban people can count on the full and unconditional support of the United States.”

I applaud your Governor's response to that tragedy.

To you and the honored dead, our country is forever grateful.

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.
