From the original article, “AUSTIN — Gov. Rick Perry has appealed to President Barack Obama to declare the state a major disaster area as wildfires strike or threaten all but two of the state’s 254 counties.
A statement issued Sunday by Perry requested the aid in a letter dispatched Saturday afternoon”
I did not tell Rick to do it, he did it on his own. I was just pointing out that to ask for help was weak.
You do know that there are federal assets, think equipment on the bases that are sitting ready to be used but there are bureaucratic red tape crap in the way of using them. It’s not weak but the fracking procedure.
