Re: For the sake of humanity, FIRE Darnell Earley now!!!

The man is a liar as far as Flint is concerned. He personally signed the order directing the switch to the Flint River, and there was never any bill before city council proposing usage of the Flint River, even on a temporary basis.

Re: Trump will win Iowa and New Hampshire

I agree that Trump will win New Hampshire, probably handily. Iowa is a toss-up. Iowa generally favors evangelical conservatives. Recall that Mike Huckabee won there in 2008. Pat Robertson won there in 1988. I'd put the odds at even money between Trump and Cruz. The real question is - aside from Trum...

Re: For the sake of humanity, FIRE Darnell Earley now!!!

There certainly are signs that Earley is incompetent and possibly dishonest, too. The schools are in horrendous, inhumane condition. I agree with Jack.

Earley is misusing the limited funding he has. He needs to be fired ASAP.

Re: A More Measured Analysis Of The Flint Water Crisis

It's not present in my city. My water tastes as it should, leaves no staining, and is the "right" color. I receive testing data in the mail two or four times annually. In all respects, my water has never been even remotely close to violating permitted limits of TTM, metallic compounds, bacteria, lea...

Main takeaways from Snyder's e-mail release...

It's quite evident to me someone performed a keyword search using "Flint" as the search criterion. Of the 274 pages of emails released, only a fraction actually deal with the subject of Flint water! For example, pages 41 & 42 discuss a potential increase in the income tax rate from 1.0% to 1.5%. I'v...

Re: Snyder admin. willfully poisons Flint's water customers

Snyder sure made himself look silly in the below interview with CBS News' Scott Pelley. How could Snyder be completely unaware of the results of the latest lead tests? Aren't Accountants supposed to be "numbers guys" ? Aren't they supposed to be detail-oriented? Snyder had no good answer for Mr. Pel...

Re: WOMC adding 90s music

Great; I can now hear 90's music torn to shreds by WOMC's horrible audio processing algorithm that squashes treble, limits dynamic range and overemphasizes loudness. As bad as WOMC's audio processing sounds with its standard 70's & 80's fare, it sounds all that much worse with 90's fare (granted, th...

Re: A More Measured Analysis Of The Flint Water Crisis

I've certainly drinken well water, but it's never been discolored. The only staining on the sink has been minor "hard water" stains.

Re: A More Measured Analysis Of The Flint Water Crisis

How many times have you drank water in another community or from a well, that looked, smelled, and tasted funny, and stained the fixtures?
In my case? Precisely ZERO times.

Just because you and I learned about her awful decision two or three weeks ago doesn't mean her boss didn't know of it much, much sooner.

Re: Snyder admin. willfully poisons Flint's water customers

Looks like the Fed's took care of their issue quickly enough...
They did?!!!!! What planet are you living on? Hedman f*cked up last summer. She was allowed to remain on the job longer than that inept piece of shit, Dan Wyant.

Re: Snyder admin. willfully poisons Flint's water customers

It was a 50 minute speech. For him to provide all those details would require two extra hours. He never apologized for his administration's attempt to discredit the Doctor who blew the whistle on lead poisoning. No, but he thanked the individuals who did blow the whistle. He never once said how he f...
