Republican presidential hopeful Jeb Bush on Sunday praised Michigan Gov. Rick Snyder (R) for the way he has handled the fallout from the water contamination crisis in the city of Flint.
I admire Rick Snyder for stepping up right now. Hes going to the challenge, and hes fired people and accepted responsibility to fix this, Bush, a former Florida governor, said on CNNs State of the Union.
Bush elaborated that he has been critical of Snyder for his negligence leading up to the crisis, but applauded the governor for the way he has taken responsibility to fix the problem.
No, what Im saying though, instead of saying, 'The dog ate my homework' and, 'Its someone elses fault,' once it became clear hes taken the lead now, and thats exactly what I think leaders have to do, he said.

When you truly accept responsibility you accept the consequences of what you did. Consequences do not exist for these assholes.

The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State."

(38,448 posts)His so called friends will destroy him, so that they can save their own agendas. They will say he did a terrible job, and if someone had been on task, none of this would have happened. ...they will say this......................
the ideas are not wrong, about running things like a business, Ricky was just too stinky,,,,and did an awful job
someone else would have caught it right in the beginning, and this wouldn't have happened at all...so it was Stinky Ricky, not the idea of running things like a business....you know what I mean....
