George W. Bush: “We will confront them with focus and clarity and courage.”

On behalf of the American people, Laura and I offer our sincere condolences to Betsy and the Wyeth family.

Today, we remember your loss, we share your sorrow and we honor the men and women that you have loved so long and so well.

This is not mere nostalgia, it is the truest version of ourselves.

I know campaigns are stressful and taxing.
