President-elect Bush pledges to 'heal our country'

CNN.com

George W. Bush addressed the nation for the first time tonight as president-elect, pledging to work with Democratic candidate Al Gore to "heal our country after this hard-fought contest." Bush spoke from the Texas House of Representatives, which he used as a symbol for bipartisanship. "The spirit of cooperation I have seen in this hall is what is needed in Washington."

Bush's remarks came about an hour after Gore ended his five-week political and legal battle for the presidency and called on Americans to unite behind Bush. "I say to President-elect Bush that what remains of partisan rancor must now be put aside, and may God bless his stewardship of this country."

Aw, come on, you gotta get with the program...

As V might say, we are now in a Unite/Forgive/Forget time capsule.

And anyway, it did take courage to say those words with a brave smile and without choking on them.
