George W. Bush: “Democracy is central to prosperity, development, and peace.”

Is it in our national interests that 25 million people who would have died now live? I think it is, and so do you.

seldom has history offered a greater opportunity to do so much for so many.

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.

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