Escondido:
Gov. Schwarzenegger and President Bush greeted firefighters at the Escondido fire command center. The governor and president shook hands as the pair walked to the microphones.
‘It means a lot to me personally and it means a lot to the people of California,’ Schwarzenegger said of the presidential visit.
The governor described the tour he and the president took this morning as heart-breaking.
‘Thank you to the president for everything he has done,’ the governor said. ‘We both understand this will be a long process.’
Bush returned the compliment. Of Schwarzenegger, Bush said there is ‘no hill he is not willing to charge; no problem he is not willing to solve.’
