Air Force One touched down at Naval Air Station North Island Monday. The president and first lady Laura Bush arrived at the Coronado base about 4:30 p.m. following brief stops earlier in the day in Ontario, Calif., and Arizona. The president did not speak to reporters, who were hoping he might say something about Hurricane Katrina.

Several military officials met the president before he was escorted to the Hotel Del Coronado in a presidential limousine. The president and first lady spent the night there.

Following the address, the president paid a visit to the Naval Medical Center San Diego in Balboa Park.

Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld was also in San Diego Monday. Rumsfeld hung out with the boys of summer at Petco Park, watching the Padres game from a skybox. Earlier Monday, Rumsfeld met with 1,000 soldiers and civilians at the national training center in Fort Irwin, where he awarded Purple Hearts.

2. Bush compared Iraq to WWII

but I think the people of NO were feeling like they were going through the Blitz and Chimpster couldn't have given a shit. So much for his analogies - he had a live one ine real time and couldn't deal with it. He's a disgrace to humanity.
