George W. Bush: “A time limit, as soon as possible.”

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

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

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