every day republicans show us how they don't care about the people

[billyerock1991]

Republican Senator Mike Lee from Utah, claims other politicians are “grandstanding,” using the Flint crisis to direct federal funding to their own states and to “federalize” the nation’s water infrastructure. where they keep getting poisoned by their water that republicans created for them

They are grandstanding and using this crisis for personal gain.

Repub!licans are poisoning the water now?

How do you explain the issue in other States, including Baltimore?

I believe there has been outrage from many who are conservative and Republican.

And before you go off on a right wing rant, I am a Democrat.

You are full of

the republicans have been blocking the repairs of the nations water systems for 9 years now ... they are doing it because they didn't want to see the democrats turn around the unemployment to fast ... are you really this stupid??? they have been blocking the highway systems for 9 years now ... same reason, they didn't want to see the democrats turn around the unemployment numbers around too fast ... now that we are sitting at 4.9 they try to tell us Obama did a bad job ??? where you are falling for the BULL SHIT that they are trying to pull??? really ??? so now that you think they are grand standing to get their water systems repaired in their state ... you think thats a bad Idea??? really ??? are you this stupid ... these people are being screwed and you trying to say, well its ok they can deal with it by them selves... because you think its ok because block it because you thing politicians are grandstanding ... you're no democrat that I know

The source of the lead in question usually isn't from the feeder pipes, but the pipes inside people's houses. Most government's don't touch that piping, as it is the property owner's responsibility. At best the local government could offer a tax credit to people for replacing their pipes, but then of course Flint needs its tax income to pay for its pension costs, so this is what happens when blue model cities start running out of money, both current and future.

I just saw some studies a few weeks ago that put the source in the ground. Car exhaust settles into the dirt. Which means every major city is going to have this problem sooner or later if they don't upgrade their plumbing.

It does need to be addressed.

Local and State governments should have had this under control long ago.

At least Maryland has shown the initiative and I'm impressed with the results.

The problem is the funding for these projects has to come from somewhere.

The upkeep is expensive and locally they would have to raise taxes as the cost is more than is being taken in to pay for maintenance.

The outrage and uproar in Maryland was swift conncerning the additional tax.

It has subsided and many are satisfied with the initiative.


I understand the Fed stepping in and applaud the actions.

This is not a federal issue and having the federal government controlling State and local infrastructure is not going to resolve these problems.

heres a state who capitol population is 38,856 where flint Michigan has a population of 99,002 almost 3 time and your trying to compair them to your state ???really !!!!

Please tell us how Republican "create" water. Do we have a magical water machine?

are you stupid ??? natural y stupid ??? or just plain stupid ... I side on the side you're naturally stupid ??? I can tell you how republican created a led problem in flint... the didn't add phosphoric acid to the water purification plant to keep the led pipes from leaching ... thats what I can tell you ... the fact that you're to stupid to figure that one out is beyond me ... so now tell us how its the EPA fault ... I always love a good laugh there too ...

I don't quite understand the mechanism you are alluding to. Most cities with legacy lead piping add phosphoric acid to the water, which creates a coating in the piping that reduces the lead leaching to safe levels.

thats what they didn't do in flint they didn't add any Phosphoric acid the didn't want to pay for it ... but again remember its the EPA fault you know, cause they should have told the obama administration they didn't put in phosphoric acid in that they had bad water .. so the fact that obama didn't know or was even informed, according to these republicans here its all Obama fault, according to our nonpartisan republicans here... hell, Richard Dale Snyder was just trying to be a nice guy he was trying to save money for flint ... he was being a good guy ... that what these nonpartisan republicans will tell you

The blame should be placed at the local level, on whatever operator was in charge of the plant (unless he asked for phosphoric and got denied) and on the Mayor for not responding to an obvious water quality issue.

I notice you skipped that part, and went right for the hacky "Obama is blameless but the Governor should be blamed blamed and blamed!!!"

HAaaaaaaaaccccckkkk

you need to do some research Haaaaaaaaaaaaack ... they didn't ask ... Snyder didn't want to pay for it ... its all in the few emails he released ...but like all you republican haaaaaaacks you don't do any research ... its too hard for ya !!!

So there is an email from Snyder saying "Flint, No phosphoric acid for You!!!!"

I'm waiting.

 

[billyerock1991]

this is funny ... here we have Snyder emergency MGR. telling the water plant MGR that they didn't need phosphoric Acid because it was too costly ... now it has turned out to be to costly for republicans in Michigan and these ass clowns republiclowns now wants to ask me why didn't the plant mgr complain ????then when you tell them you're the HACK
priceless

[WildBillKelsoe]

you watch not many republicans will respond ..because they know they screw these people and these republicans voters are thinking really they even blocking this too.

How do you explain how the Fed's knew about the problem and said nothing to the Flint residents about the contaminated water?

as i started to look for more information on this matter wow !!! theres a boat load pages ... page after page of conservative sites claiming its the plant mgr fault .. never mind that Emergency Manager Darnell Earley for flint is refusing to go to the lawmakers on the hill,never mind that he's hiding from the us marshal who has a subpoena for him, its all the water treatment plant mgr fault ... like he did know the lines need to be treated properly, its not the governors fault ... its not Emergency Manager Darnell Earley fault ... its the water treatment MGR fault ... you republicans are a piece of work ... push your incompetence on somebody else ...

Bravely ran away, away.
When danger rears it's ugly head
He bravely turned his tail and fled.
Yes Brave Sir Billyerock turned about
He gallantly chickened out.

Bravely taking to his feet
He beat a very brave retreat.
Oh bravest of the brave, Sir Billyerock!

Politicians are not my mother and father who I think needs to care about me. The government is the system of laws or written rules and words can't care about me. Politicians can but I wish half of them were dead so I don't know why they would care about me.
