If magazine writers were not paid for the length of the articles they produce (this one's nearly 1000 words) I think we'd have a lot of articles around that simply said "Bush's fault."

They just need to complete that earthquake <-> global warming link to complete the trifecta of war, hurricanes, and earthquakes, all assignable to Bush.

"As you put more and more people in harms way, you make a disaster out of something that before was just a natural event," said Klaus Jacob, a senior research scientists at Columbia University's Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory >

I have to agree, as populations increase and the government pays for your loss, why not rebuild in areas known for hurricanes, mudslides, fires, etc.
