Even on the train it takes a couple of hours. Do you not like trains? They are far more comfortable than the bus.

If you mean "Not Amtrak", you're in luck. Metrolink trains go as far as Oceanside. http://www.metrolinktrains.com/stations/detail.php?id=111
where they meet the Coaster, the San Diego commuter rail.

This is similar to how savvy people get from NYC to Philly. Rather than pay a hefty Amtrak fare, they the metro NYC and metro Philly commuter rails, which meet at Trenton with a timed, cross-platform transfer. For about 1/3 the price!
If you don't want ANY rail, you should be able to cobble up a route using MTA, OC Transit and surface transit from Oceanside. But it would be a long, long ride with many transfers... ouch!
