The Democrats’ Filthy Flint Water
Dirty politics lead to dirty water.
*snip lying psycho article*
great article. As usual libs blaming republicans for their decades of shortcuts, crony capitalism, lying, stealing and mismanagement.
so the governor divests the city of flint of their vote and replaces their elected officials with a "city manager" that city manager replaces flint's clean water with polluted water so corrosive that general motors won't use it and ships in their own water from outside. said governor then lies to the people of flint, telling them "go ahead. drink the water. it's safe. the doctor who's saying it is leaded is just crazy".
kids get lead poising and 10 people die.
and you losers say it was the democrats fault.
you should probably call your local mental health facility. with delusions that strong, you're probably a danger to yourself or others.
2 words republican governor. He ordered the water to be drawn from the Flint River even after he knew it was deadly.
Genocide - it's on the wingnuts' rule list.
"The Democrats’ Filthy Flint Water"
The republicans' filthy lie.
The GOP "emergency manager" appointed by the governor is the one who made changes to the water supply to save money. And when it resulted in disaster the governor ignored it. But somehow it's Obama's fault.
That would be obama since the EPA is a federal agency. You'd blame him for a fuckup like that? Weird Democrats!You would be looking to hold the highest positioned person accountable.

The EM was a D. But lets skip that part and get to the truth. The Flint City Council voted to change water suppliers. From Detroit to KWA. Detroit took a hissy fit and cut off Flint. KWA wasn't completed so they had to turn to Flint as an interim measure.
Now whether you want to believe it or not there is no proof that the Governor knew jack shit. Because the DHHS lied their asses off to everyone.

Flint was being run by a governor appointed emergency manager.
Plenty of blame to go around. When cut off DET water, they changed source correct?
New source, new plant, new employees, new recipe correct? I hear they have hard time getting anyone truly qualified to work in craphole that is Flint. AND those doing hiring don't know jack about water treatment.
So the new water ENG department provided new water and it reacted differently to the pipes. Case closed. EPA did nothing about the "Violation" of missing anti-corrosion chemicals? huh? That is Federal law but no heads roll? huh? Oh yeah, head rolled, EPA chief ran out to early retirement. Fork me. fork me running.
now go fix the problem. Filters, boil, bottled whatever. Get pipes back over to Lake Huron? Get new Water ENG or let EPA set recipe?
Well they are back to Detroit Water and Sewage finally. Water is from Huron again.
Same reason he doesn't stand up for the unions or workers getting paid right. The guy is as much in the pocket of the rich as the republicans. This is why he pushes such insane leftist social bs as that is only a show to fool people.

The EMs were all democrat.
Now politics aside I don't blame the Governor or the EM's or the Mayor or the city council of Flint.
Why?
Because the freaking Michigan DHHS was lying to all of them and to the people. Not only lying, they hid evidence, they manipulated data.
When your own health department is lying thru their teeth at you are all those politicians go out and get an independent opinion?
From 2001 to 2008, millions of industrialized jobs moved to China and over 40,000 factories closed. That was during a time of Bush Tax cuts, fake wars, and government cutting taxes on companies moving to China, effectively giving them subsidies to leave cities like Flint.Just like criminalcrats pass the blame, and they want to rule the world, chumps...
The Democrats’ Filthy Flint Water
Dirty politics lead to dirty water.
January 21, 2016
Daniel Greenfield
Mayor Dayne Walling, a Democrat, led a cheerful countdown at the Flint water treatment plant to press the button moving the city over to river water. Walling and Darnell Earley, the Democratic emergency manager, even raised glasses in a toast and drank the water to show that it was safe.
“It’s a historic moment for the city of Flint to return to its roots and use our own river as our drinking water supply,” Walling said. “The water quality speaks for itself.”
Flint’s city council had voted in favor of the move 7-1. Despite claims about the power of the emergency manager, the switch could not have gone forward without that vote.
Even once the problem had surfaced, the EPA knew and kept quiet. It was only once the crisis broke, that the Democratic establishment attempted to redirect the blame at Michigan’s efforts to fix broken Democratic cities like Flint using emergency managers. The war against the emergency managers is not about clean water; it’s about protecting the dirty Democratic politics that destroyed these cities.
Flint’s dirty water had its origins in dirty politics. The Democratic Party had badly mismanaged the city.
Flint was trying to cut costs, but not in the right place. Water rates were already murderously high, because around 40 percent of the city’s water was leaking out or being stolen. Water theft is routine in failed Democratic cities like Flint. And the thefts often come from the inside.
Warren Southall II, a Flint city employee, illegally turned on water in exchange for bribes. Last year he was fined, but would not serve any jail time. Illegal water hookups are everywhere. Residents who have their water turned off can always find ways to get it turned back on again. The cost gets passed on to those who pay their bills. And the rates go up and more residents run away.
From 2002 to 2010, Flint’s population declined by 18%. The poverty rate encompasses over a third of the population. Barely half the city works. The second largest employer in Flint is government. The third and fourth largest employers, healthcare and education, are heavily government subsidized.
Flint is a failed city. It’s what happens when Democrats run a city into the ground by driving away jobs and pandering to unions. Eventually the union contracts make a city’s finances unfeasible and the cycle of tax hikes, union contracts, unfunded pensions, welfare protests, junk bond sales and then crisis management and privatization takes its toll. That is exactly what happened in Flint.
Flint got deep into trouble because of its unions. The city has been desperately struggling to privatize as much of its services as it can, wiping out union jobs to protect union retirement benefits, and then cutting services to cover for a growing deadbeat population that wants services, but doesn’t want to pay for them. And the simple fact of life is that somebody has to pay for clean water. Or it won’t be clean.
It wasn’t corporations or big business that made it impossible for Flint to pay its bills. It wasn’t Rick Snyder. It was Flint residents who kept voting for ridiculously incompetent Democrats.
Flint, like Detroit, needed emergency managers because the Democratic Party had destroyed entire cities. And it is those emergency managers, who are often African-American Democrats even when appointed by Republicans, who are being used to pass all the blame on to Governor Rick Snyder.
But they are leaving out a whole lot of history along the way.
In 2002, Woodrow Stanley, the three-term Democratic Party mayor, was removed from office by angry voters due to a $30 million deficit. He didn’t accept the blame for the disaster. Instead he blamed racism.
“The stench of racism that reeks [from] this election will linger in the nostrils of this community for decades," Stanley said. In reality, plenty of black voters had turned out to drive him out of office.
...
Flint’s dirty water originated with its dirty Democratic Party overlords. Blaming Republicans won’t clean it up.

No. You addled loon. They were the governor's people.
The health department works for the governor. Just like when Christie Whitman lied through her teeth for baby bush and said the air at ground zero was safe.
You wackos simply don't stop. It's insane.
