the fires were sunday, monday, tuesday. by wednesday many were quite contained. i understand you want to point out how fema/govt. is here to help us all, but it looked late to me. that's ok, because the feds did not disappoint anyone down here in texas. it's a big place, and lots of fire fighters came in from north texas and many other locations around the state to fight the fires. i understand a lot of other states don't have so many resources in the state.

President Barack Obama telephoned Gov. Rick Perry on Wednesday afternoon to offer condolences about the wildfires and pledge federal help with firefighting and recovery, the White House said.

Obama reached Perry in California, where the governor was preparing for Wednesday night's Republican presidential debate. After hanging up, Obama directed officials to ensure that they are "making all resources available" to Texas, the U.S. Forest Service and the Federal Emergency Management Agency, the press office said.
