George W. Bush: “I waive the prohibition of section 2007(a) of the Act with respect to these countries.”

We know our words cannot help, but we believe the prayers of so many Americans will.

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

The American economy has consistently proven its strength and resilience in the face of shocks such as natural disasters, high energy prices, and the terrorist attacks of September 11.

I have confidence in the promise of America because I know the character of our people.
