George W. Bush: “The NATO Alliance and the civilized world are confronting the new enemies of freedom, and we will prevail.”

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

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

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

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