Does anyone have links to stories criticizing Bush for visiting Florida "too soon" after Hurricane Ivan?

It was about this time last year, around the time of the Debates.

I've Googled for hours and come up empty. Any help you could give me would be appreciated.

I don't have any links, but I remember cancelling my subscription to the Seattle Post Intelligencer after reading a front page article about Hurricaine Andrew. The article claimed that the only reason that (the first)President Bush visited Florida and pledged federal aid was because he had family there. The article went on to say that states such as Florida, California and those along the Mississippi, which are prone to natural disasters, should not be eligible for federal aid. I remember thinking at the time that I should send a copy of the article to newspapers in those states so that they could see what there fellow leftists were saying.
