Why?

When Katrina hit New Orleans we had weeks of coverage about the devastation and destruction. We were told how it had to be global warming that caused the destruction and inferred was how ultimately it was President Bush's fault that the levees failed. We heard for weeks how the government HAD to rebuild the destroyed homes.

Now 2 years later, a similar fate falls over Galveston and the central Texas coast with millions out of power, the city of Houston is still pretty badly damaged, and devastation as bad as many of the lower wards in New Orleans but we aren't hearing anywhere near as much as we did then.

Why?
