George W. Bush: “It is such an honor to be here.”

You will have an Almighty God to comfort you.

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

Is it in our interest that 25 million people who would have died now live? I think it is. On behalf of a grateful nation, thank you for your hard work and God bless you.

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