President Barack Obama spoke for nearly an hour Wednesday in Flint, Michigan, on the city's water crisis, reassuring residents that filtered water is safe to drink, encouraging them to get their children tested for lead, and promising that the state and federal government would provide help in replacing the city's water lines. Before Obama took the stage in front of a crowd of about 1,100 at Northwestern High School, Gov. Snyder attempted to speak, only to be met with sustained boos and shouts of "Go home!":
Well, I did a quick google and that was one estimate I saw, from February. Maybe that was just the mains or something, or they were lowballing for some reason. Still, the basic point stands, I think, no matter how high an estimate you want to use, it's nothing compared to DoD expenditures that don't get a second thought.
As usual, thank you dogs, for Bamz. That's my President!!!FYI: the headlines for this yesterday were "Obama Comes to Flint--Some People Say Too Late." When will the press quit being so gosh-darn liberal and fawning on Obama?
Without the Medicaid "Well Baby" program, I would have almost certainly lost mrs ged and the gedlet. Sure, my parents would have sacrificed their retirement to pay our medical bills, but we wouldn't have had the preventative care that saved their lives.
Remember when Chris Christie quarantined a nurse in an unheated tent because she'd been exposed to lead?
He'd better withdraw Garland's nomination for SCOTUS before he goes so Joe can make his own.
The Republicans reached their nadir when they complained he didn't kill bin Laden right.
And the state lege is ready, willing, and able to address that issue in the next six months or so when they deal with the next budget process.
Did you see the entire speech? Apparently not. Sit the fuck down.
No way in hell they're repiping a community of 100K for $55M.

I would have thought there'd be a flood of them.
Super Mac? Socialist???? BWahaha-haha - ha -ah - um
... Well, I suppose by the standards of todays GOP
a young girl should not have to go to Washington to be heard. I thought her president should come to Flint to meet with her.
Dammit Obama, you keep doing nice things like this and it just makes me wish you would become our Sexxxy Dictator for Life.

I pay my taxes with a smile.
Pipe gonna get laid by Obama?
God damn, America, I am going to miss this President.
The next one might make you miss him even more.
I did, but just for your convenience I've copied it out of my first comment (not allowed, though):
"To insinuate that Obama (photo-op) is part of the republican clusterfuck is silly and as paranoid as saying that the media is liberal."
