'Wins the internet today?' Rep. John Dingell's take on @EPAwater goof is 'perfect'

Staff has now informed me of what a Kardashian is.

I'm only left with more questions.

OK. Let’s get something straight: Rep. Dingell is a crusty old Beltway barnacle, straight-up. But we cannot deny the awesomeness of that tweet. Who can?
