So the Environmental Destruction Agency is spilling orange waste into our rivers? Are they going to get Oompa Loompas to clean it up?

Wasn't the EDA created by Richard M. Nixon?

Augustas Gloop! Nooooo!

[NormsRevenge]

The BooBocracy strikes again.

They need to swear an oath to not do any damage like doctors do.. Call it a hypocritic Oath or such..

Stupid swine..

[Jim Robinson]

"The EPA said its workers triggered the release of a million gallons of waste while using heavy machinery to investigate pollutants at the Gold King Mine north of Silverton, Colorado."

Heads need to roll.

[Truth29]

So can we sue EPA into oblivion and force their shut down? No, I didn’t think so...

[Lurkina.n.Learnin]

So will they charge their own officials for this travesty?

[DoughtyOne]

A lot of programs like this sound great at their inception.

Then reality hits.

I don’t seen any mention of the EPA being sorry this took place.

[polymuser]

The harmed communities must do to EPA as they would do to any corporation that did this, including takedown of its leaders, and nothing less.

kakistocracy, n. See U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.

[Balding_Eagle]

First they send US Forest workers to start fires in our forests, then prevent local fire departments from putting it out, burning hundreds of thousand of acres instead of just 30 or 40.

Now this

[jazusamo]

The clean up should be paid for by money saved in the total closure of the EPA. After the cost of clean up the country would save that amount every year in the future.

[USMCPOP]

Goobamint workers at their finest. Not liable, as they are part of the Idiocracy, a protected class. Oh, woops, we’ll just take some accrued vacation time or sick leave until this all blows over.

[ImJustAnotherOkie]

The EPA did it? Oh my god!!!

[Steely Tom]

Millions of gallons? It looks to me like hundreds of millions gallons.

[eyeamok]

No word on their ARREST and PROSECUTION for “ Crimes against Humanity”, is Congress holding hearings like they did with BP?, Have Massive Fines been levied against the perpetrators?? Shouldn’t Congress abolish this agency for the Crimes against the Earth they just committed.??

[Objective Scrutator]

I’d bet 10 bucks that this was an act of malice, and not one of incompetence.

[BenLurkin]

Better question: Which Preezy will close the EPA down?

[TigersEye]

The EPA just destroyed a great natural resource. A lot of livelihoods will be severely impacted.

Animas River (Duranglers.com fishing guide website)

One of the last free-flowing rivers in the state of Colorado, the Animas River is a unique and rare treasure. With the newest and one of the best Gold Medal Water fly-fishing sections in Colorado, the Animas is a river that should be on your list of places to fish.

The Animas River is evidence of how human perception of the landscape has evolved over the past 250 years. Today the Animas Valley and the river itself seem alive, bountiful, and full of beauty. When Juan Rivera passed through this corner of Colorado in 1765, he named the river El Rio de las Animas Perdidas en Purgatorio, “The River of the Lost Souls in Hell.” To Rivera and his Spanish compatriots, the valley was remote, bleak, and had little to offer them in the way of riches.

Remember that scene from Ghost Busters and the guy from EPA?

Life imitates art once again.
