President's National Days of Prayer and Remembrance Proclamation
National Days Of Prayer and Remembrance, 2004
THE WHITE HOUSE
Office of the Press Secretary
(Chillicothe, Ohio) For Immediate Release September 10, 2004
A PROCLAMATION
On September 11, 2001, America was attacked with deliberate and massive cruelty. We remember the tragedy of that day. We remember the images of fire, and the final calls of love, and the courage of rescuers who saw death and did not flee. We remember the many good lives that ended too soon. We remember the families left behind to carry a burden of sorrow; they have shown a courage of their own. During this year's National Days of Prayer and Remembrance, Americans join together to pray for those who were lost, and for their loved ones.
Since that day, our Nation has waged a relentless war against terror and evil. We pray for the brave men and women of the United States Armed Forces who are serving our country on the front lines of this war. They have answered a great call, and our Nation is grateful for their courage, love of country, and dedication to duty. We recognize the sacrifice of military families and pray that they find comfort in faith and in knowing that their loved ones are serving an historic cause -- defending our country and advancing peace and freedom in the world.
On this third anniversary of September 11th, we feel the warm courage of national unity -- a unity of grief and a unity of resolve. And we pray that God will continue to watch over and bless America.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, GEORGE W. BUSH, President of the United States of America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and laws of the United States, do hereby proclaim Friday, September 10, through Sunday, September 12, 2004, as National Days of Prayer and Remembrance. I ask that the people of the United States and places of worship mark these National Days of Prayer and Remembrance with memorial services, the ringing of bells, and evening candlelight remembrance vigils. I invite the people of the world to share in these Days of Prayer and Remembrance.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this tenth day of September, in the year of our Lord two thousand four, and of the Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and twenty-ninth.
GEORGE W. BUSH
The Kerry Kamp is not actually planning a response, are they?
"And we pray that God will continue to watch over and bless America."
Respond to THAT J Forgery Kerry. I dare you to flip-flop over our President's remarks Mr. Unfit One.
Geez. I'm so fed up with the left!
Think I'll go out and pull weeds and imagine each one is Dan Rather or sKerry. It helps with the frustration I am feeling, especially on a day like today.
Never forget 9/11/01. <sob
You know for one day Bob Beckel couldn't restrain himself from criticizing President Bush. This guy has got to be the #2 A'Hole in the 'Rats party behind McAwful.
"... and of the Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and twenty-ninth."
Great proclamation by President Bush. My only concern is in the math. 2004 minus 1776 equals 228, not 229. Sorry if I'm wrong thinking on this, but, like most conservatives, I'd rather be right than happy :) LOL
Kerry = Klassless
CHENEY WARNS AMERICA: THIS ELECTION IS ABOUT OUR SURVIVAL
KERRY-EDWARDS TRIES TO SHUT DOWN DEBATE
President Bush: "America was attacked with deliberate and massive cruelty." [The attackers are the bad guys]
JFnK: America was attacked because we were wrong. We have made folks not like us and we need to act in such a way as to please all peoples of the world. America was at fault. Bush was at fault. [Kerry has said just this more or less multiple times]
JFnK, you are not worthy to clean my toilet, you filthy socialist POS traitor. And that goes for the rest of the Communist Party posing behind the "democrat" name as well.
