George W. Bush: “Kristine Ann Iverson, of Illinois, to be an Assistant Secretary of Labor, vice Geri D. Palast.”

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

I hereby find that the furnishing of defense articles and defense services to the Southern African Development Community will strengthen the security of the United States and promote world peace.

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.

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