And that the Texas legislature cut 30% of its budget for programs that cover those kind of disasters.
False.
And the state of Texas has $6BN in the bank for disasters just such as this one. Trust me, the state will spare no expense.
However, it is legitimate to ask why we Texan's don't get our taxpayer money back from the Feds when it comes to natural disasters, yet other states do.

Because dumbo in the White House hates Texas and he has said as much!
jojajn is a troll with no idea of what truth is. Any truth. All the replies made to her just upped her post count. I have come back to this thread all day gritting my teeth to not post. Now I am back again to say good grief, flipping trolls. !!
good grief, it was a joke....and a funny one at that. You are the one threatening to tell daddy over a joke. Become a mod, if you want play enforcer, otherwise get over yourself.
Obviously it wasn't funny, and if you've got to explain how it's funny, there's you clue.
No one's running to tell anyone, anything..hence the words directly aimed at you re: the TOS. If you can't handle it play somewhere else. If you want to insult, call names, go for it. But don't go trying to play tough guy, pushing people around on the keyboard. There are already one too many turd blossoms floating around this tank and there's no need for another so you'll have to apply for a different position.
No it doesn't, the FEMA website clearly says that those are disaster declarations, not grants. The liberal blog that keeps getting posted calls them grants but that's false. Would you like to tell us how much money TX has gotten back from the fed to fight these fires?
$70 million as of June 1, meaning the Federal Gov't is being asked by Perry to pay $52.5 million and Texas would be stuck w/ $17.5 million.
And for the 2011-2012 budget the Texas Forest Service faces a $34 BILLION dollar cut to their programs that deal specifically w/ these type of disasters.
