George W. Bush: “I fully understand that the intelligence was wrong, and I'm just as disappointed as everybody else is.”

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

History will remember him as among the finest public servants of his generation – a patriot who brought integrity, high intelligence, and seriousness of purpose to every position.

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

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