Wildfires continue to burn land across Texas and with no end in sight, Governor Rick Perry is asking for the Presidents' help.

What's being called the 'Perfect Storm' for fires, has destroyed nearly 250 homes. At least one firefighter has been killed and 18 others have been injured.

With all but two of the states, state's 254 counties affected, the governor asked President Obama, to declare Texas a 'Major Disaster'.

Authorities say that over a million and a half acres have been scorched. Heavy winds and drought-like conditions are fueling most of the fires, making it difficult to put them out.

I guess Gov Perry is glad he didn't push harder for secession after all, or he might be establishing a Texas income tax (the horror!) since the rest of America wouldn't be at the ready to pay Texans' expenses on this one.
