Flint water is full if lead

Yeah I heard bills get watered down like crazy

 

Are you blaming Hillary for the actions of Bill when he was Governor of Arkansas??

I've never seen this tactic before until Hillary decided to run for POTUS.
People are even blaming her for his affairs.smh

The situation in Flint is similar to what happened in Arkansas, but the real difference is the Governor of Michigan is the one who appointed an emergency financial planner for Flint because they were millions in debt and Gov. Snyder took away any authority from the local government.
The financial planner with approval from the Governor's office decided it would be cheaper to pull Flint's water supply from the contaminated Flint River instead of Lake Huron.

Residents were bringing bottles of brown water to city officials for months complaining about the smell and taste.
Hospital officials were reporting that medical supplies were corroding after being washed in water from the Flint River.

The bureaucrats who worked under the emergency financial planner were telling residents their pipes were leaching metal but the water was safe, refusing for over a year to admit the water was contaminated.

Now the Governor has turned the whole problem over to the Mayor of Flint, who was out of the loop from the beginning, and told her to fix it.:smt119

It's hard to put a Governor in jail without irrefutable evidence of deliberate wrong doing, but that's where Snyder needs to be.

He created this problem from the beginning.

Flipping the problem in Flint into a political stick to beat the Clintons over the head with is wrong.

Anyway, Hillary had nothing to do with any administrative decisions Bill Clinton made in Arkansas or D.C.

An investigation is being launched. Do you really believe they will site the governor for wrongdoing?

3 govt employees charged

 

This is a good start, but I can't wait to see who else gets arrested.

 

I would hope the governor gets arrested

 

Agreed! That is a horrible situation, and simply criminal.

Lead in Louisiana...
Excerpt from article.....


n the past three years, nine drinking water systems in Louisiana reported lead at or above the 15 parts per billion "action level" set by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, according to an Associated Press analysis of EPA data for some 1,400 water systems across the United States. At the top of the Louisiana list is the water system serving Lion Copolymer, a manufacturing plant in Geismar.
