Back in April, Gov Rick Perry called for Texans to pray because the drought was kinda bad. Here's what it's been like since then:

Something else I wonder about: Perry has been playing the Labor Arbitrage game, and he's done a good bit of bragging about the influx of people because there're so many new jobs in Texas. First, Texas leads the US in minimum-wage jobs. Second, the majority of new jobs in Texas are minimum wage or minimum plus 20% jobs. Third, a big increase in population only puts a greater strain on things like infrastructure and resources like clean water.
Just sayin'.
