George W. Bush: “We're not leaving. We will stand.”

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

Today, we remember your loss, we share your sorrow and we honor the men and women that you have loved so long and so well.

That is the America I know.

The creativity, ingenuity, and resourcefulness of the American people is our country's greatest strength.
