George W. Bush: “Their sacrifice will not be in vain.”

Congratulations on becoming our President.

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

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

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.
