Let's See If Republicans Support Governor Who Poisoned Children

Rick Snyder knowingly poisoned children.

http://www.alternet.org/news-amp-politics/foia-request-shows-govt-lied-about-lead-water-knowingly-poisoning-countless

Lets see of Republicans support him and his right to knowingly poison children, or if Republicans call for justice.

Republicans usually don't care about crimes if it a Republican committing the crime.

This may get interesting.

Get the popcorn ready!

What will it take?

I never voted until Bush and DeLay pushed through Medicare Part D, and slammed it up our asses.

I learned how it was done and became involved in politics the next day. Thanks Bill Moyers.

I read Lies, and the Lying Liars by Al Franken. Conservatives Without Conscience, and The Wrecking Crew. Been a Liberal ever since.

What a start right?

will come to his aid. They have tons of "research" they say shows lead does not damage children. The republicans will grab onto that and support the governor. They will blame other factors.
They will try but this one may be hard to get away from.

It was only a few years ago that the physician head of our poison control denied anyone ever being injured by lead. He believed in the "free market."

They wouldn't live in a shithole like Flint, they all moved out decades ago when the auto industry offshored half their production capacity. It's all the fault of the stupid people who stayed there, they should have had enough gumption to leave like all the "right" people did.

Such is the thought process of your average Republican, I'm afraid.
