Unless you provide quotes from the "tons of Europeans/Activists" who you allege are using recent hurricane activity to blame Bush for his Kyoto position, there is not much to debate. How many Europeans/Activists does it take to make a ton?

The argument sounds suspiciously like a straw man. On the other hand Bush is out comparing response to hurricanes to terrorism response, so any sort of weirdness is possible.

Bush Compares Responses to Hurricane, Terrorism

Putting Bush & Kyoto aside, I think all concerned agree that hurricane activity is cyclical. To what extent global warming exacerbates the problem is open to debate.
