George W. Bush: “If I didn't think we would succeed, I wouldn't stay.”

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

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

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

If any voters came hoping for a kind word and a hug, they’d have to settle for the kind word.
