DENVERColorado Gov. John Hickenloopers big gulp of water from the formerly orange Animas River wasnt just icky, it was reckless and irresponsible, said New Mexicos top environmental official.
New Mexico environment department secretary Ryan Flynn said Mr. Hickenloopers decision to fill up his water bottle from the site of the EPAs 3-million-gallon wastewater spill in Durango, Colorado, sends the wrong message.
If its true, its a reckless and irresponsible act by a public official, said Mr. Flynn in the Farmington (N.M.) Daily Times. He might as well stick 15 cigarettes in his mouth and light them all at the same time and take a picture about how thats good for you.

With a democrat running the show its like magic.
5 years after the fact hardly a week goes by that the papers don’t whine about the Embridge spill in the Kalamazoo river in Michigan.

I see two possibilities. One, Hickenlooper is defending his fellow democrats and misleading the public. Two, the water really isn’t that polluted as Hickenlooper implies, so why was the EPA mucking around with the mine in the first place?
