Forewarning: This is a LONG ARTICLE broke up in parts -- due to three years plus of in-actions of the highest portions. Just wanted to make sure to mention this before clicking on the link. Thanks!

Should Apologies be Accepted When The Act Was Intentional? Should Apologies Present Sense of Instant Relief -- Regardless if a Long List of Repeated Cover Ups Are Revealed?

What About Standards?

Should a Governor Who Set His Standards So High He Proudly Signed A Bill Twice Over Ensuring Full Control of Cities, Townships, Villages, Counties and School Districts-- That Fails To Meet His High Standards -- Be Easily Forgiven With an "Apology" for Allowing Flint's Residents to Drink Toxic Water for years on end?

Governor Rick Snyder, the answer is a resounding no.

No, Flint Residents should not accept your "apology" nor should they --- as YOU continued structure that allowed for repeated lies about safety of the water.

Apology -- Not -- Accepted!

1. His apology is insufficient. I'll recommend 75 years in the graybar hotel.

2. UPDATE: The Genesee County Board of Commissioners Declare a State of Emergency in Flint, Michigan

FLINT, MI -- Last week, Gov. Rick Snyder said he was sorry for Flint's lead in water crisis.

Now, he must decide whether the situation amounts to a man-made disaster, created while the city was being run by emergency managers that he appointed.

Genesee County Board of Commissioners Chairman Jamie Curtis endorsed Flint Mayor Karen Weaver's request for a federal disaster declaration today, Jan. 4. The application was described by officials as a work in progress and includes a request for more than $50 million.

Among the specifics of the request: an estimated $45 million for the replacement of about 15,000 lead water service lines, $6.2 million to expedite upgrades in the city's water system to prepare it for treating and distributing water from the Karegnondi Water Authority and an unspecified amount to lessen the health effects of elevated lead levels in water.

"Its a victory, and it's a step in the right direction," said Weaver, who plans to meet with Snyder to discuss the declaration Thursday, Jan. 7. "I am not going to give up until this is done."

GAME-MATCH: Snyder is damned if he does and more damned if he does not. Fitting indeed for the Dictator in Chief. Karma is a B**TH!
