George W. Bush: “The Europeans have carried a significant portion of the aid-sharing burden in the region.”

On this day of prayer, Laura and I are holding up our fellow Texans who are hurting.

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

You've showed the great strength of America through your work—and that is your good heart.
