Local Flint Democrats surge into first place in water crisis sleaze contest

Local Flint Democrats surge into first place in water crisis sleaze contest. So far this scandal has been mostly about the incompetence of the Republican governor’s administration, with a dash of incompetence at the federal level by the Obama administration, but now we learn that Flint’s Democrat mayor has been redirecting donations to her personal campaign fund from a charity meant to help families hurt by the bad water. That’s cold.

    • No, it means that after the disaster became nationally known and money started flowing in to help the victims, the mayor tried to steal it. I guess she felt that the citizens of Flint hadn't been screwed enough yet.

  • Garsh! I just can't imagine a Democrat doing such a corrupt thing. It has to be a mistake. It was probably one of the recent Republican Mayors of Flint. No,...wait. Never mind.

  • So what? The mayor has a hard job, what with trying to keep the facts hidden, and campaigning for Hitlery, she deserves a little of that money. The people in need won't miss what they never had. Why is everyone so intent on hurting the Democrat machine? They give you all a pittance of money, so you can live and vote Democrat.

  • Democraps steal from everybody, the blind, the disabled, the poor, each other....You know seven years ago cars were built in Flint and you could not drink the water in Mexico, now cars are built in Mexico and you can't drink the water in Flint....Thank our dear leader for that.
