Multibillionaire Bill Gates is drinking water from the toilet again — thanks, Obama.
I drank water made from human feces. Here’s an update on the machine that produced that water: http://t.co/Bd05wl9CAM pic.twitter.com/w78xVYswSH

That’s a pretty cool trick, but the water that has people concerned at the moment is from the #AnimasRiver, into which the EPA accidentally released millions of gallons of toxic wastewater. Never fear, though; officials from the Environmental Protection Agency are in Colorado and New Mexico to assess the situation and promise to “let science be our guide” in the cleanup effort.
Gov. John Hickenlooper yesterday showed how badass he is by taking a drink straight from the river, after treating it with an iodine tablet. He doesn’t recommend others follow his lead, though.

… the drinking exercise indicated that state officials are more than confident that the river does not pose a toxic risk to humans, as they publicly stated on Tuesday.
“Am I willing to go out there and demonstrate that we’re back to normal?” Hickenlooper asked out loud after The Durango Herald raised the idea with the governor. “Certainly. I’m happy to do that. I’m dead serious.”

Because the EPA is responsible, liberals are DESPERATE to deny the impact. (And Hick is not very bright.)https://t.co/FYBbTeGe0a

Hickenlooper will survive, but he will suddenly develop superpowers.

You people won't be making jokes when Hickenlooper suddenly grows 100 feet tall & fries you with lasers from his eyes
