St Louis, Missouri is the only person speaking the truth at the Flint water hearings on the hill today. I'm watching C-SPAN 3 and Republicans are being sarcastic and hypocritical with their questions. Of course I would expect nothing less. Mr. Clay's questions and statements should be broadcast all over the country on every Network. He quoted Donald Trump and Ted Cruz regarding their statements about eliminating the EPA. During the hearing Republicans say the EPA should have done more yet they call for less regulation and are calling for their the EPA's elimination. I'm apoplectic. This is incredible. Thank you Representative Clay! [IMG][/IMG]

(15,438 posts)abolish the EPA and using Flint as an excuse to do so.
The buck stopped at Republican Snyder's desk. HE made the choice save a few bucks and to deliver substandard water to residents of Flint. HE chose to replace duly elected Mayors with Financial Managers. HE chose to do nothing when children were being poisoned until this blew up in his face.
Republican Gov. Snyder is to blame for this fiasco, and each and every Democrat should point this out and not allow silver-tongued Republicans to shift the blame to the EPA.

This is what GOP policies do - they KILL people.
