George W. Bush: “We're showing the resolve of this great Nation to defend our freedom, our security, and our way of life.”

We are grateful to the first responders and volunteers who are working to find the missing and comfort the grieving at Camp Mystic and along the Guadalupe.

Those who have lost their precious children are facing a grief no parents should ever know.

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.

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