I'll report, you decide. Here's more from the article:

An aide to Governor Perry tells Fox News' Mike Emanuel the White House wanted the governor to greet president Obama in El Paso. But Governor Perry, who lives and works in Austin, suggested the two meet there and possibly take an aerial tour of recent wild fire damage in Texas. Perry's spokesperson Catherine Frazier tells Fox News, "We are unable to meet the president on the tarmac out in El Paso, as the White House offered. We did alternatively offer to meet or greet the president when he arrives in Austin, or arrange a flyover of wildfire damage, but the White House declined."
