Relief workers wave and cheer as the motorcade of U.S. President George W. drives by, after landing at the Charlotte Country Airport in Punta Gorda, Florida August 15, 2004. Bush toured on Sunday the wreckage from the hurricane that killed at least 13 people and sent thousands fleeing to shelters in Florida, a state critical to his reelection. Bush has already issued a disaster declaration for the area, freeing up federal emergency funds while assessing the devastation in hard-hit Port Charlotte and Punta Gorda along Florida's Gulf coast.
