Texas Governor now praying for rain

A couple years ago, Gov. Perry talked of Texas seceding from the union:

“I believe the federal government has become oppressive. I believe it’s become oppressive in its size, its intrusion into the lives of its citizens, and its interference with the affairs of our state”

A few days ago, Gov. Perry appealed to that same "oppressive" union for federal help from wild fires.

Governor Perry says Texas is reaching its capacity to respond to so many emergencies.

Now, Gov. Perry is asking God for some help.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, RICK PERRY, Governor of Texas, under the authority vested in me by the Constitution and Statutes of the State of Texas, do hereby proclaim the three-day period from Friday, April 22, 2011, to Sunday, April 24, 2011, as Days of Prayer for Rain in the State of Texas. I urge Texans of all faiths and traditions to offer prayers on that day for the healing of our land, the rebuilding of our communities and the restoration of our normal and robust way of life.

I guess Gov. Perry didn't like the answer he got from the President. Good luck.
