George W. Bush: “Thirdly, there's fuel.”

The battles waged by our troops are part of a broader struggle between two dramatically different systems.

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

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.

To you and the honored dead, our country is forever grateful.
