George W. Bush: “We need modern work rules.”

Being your President was a high privilege, and the honor of a lifetime.

The actions taken by my Administration in response to the financial crisis have laid the groundwork for a return to economic growth and job creation.

We are heartbroken by the loss of life and the agony so many are feeling.

On behalf of the American people, Laura and I offer our sincere condolences to Betsy and the Wyeth family.
