President George W. Bush speaks to the media upon his arrival Friday, Sept. 12, 2008, at Tinker Air Force Base, Oklahoma. Speaking about the impending landfall of Hurricane Ike, the President said, "I want to thank the citizens of Oklahoma for getting ready to help a Texan in need. I urge my fellow Texans to listen carefully to what the authorities are saying in Galveston County or parts of Harris County, up and down the coast. The federal government will not only help with the pre-storm strategy, but once this storm passes we'll be working with state and local authorities to help people recover as quickly as possible."
