Seriously. Don’t drink the water.
“Drink Up?” No thanks…
The first lady promoted her new “Drink Up” campaign earlier this week at what she must have thought was the aptly-named Watertown High School in Wisconsin. SHE WAS WRONG!
It’s all part of a new campaign to make us want to drink more water. She probably should have picked a different WATERtown.
This reporter has had the opportunity to live near and deal with people FROM that wonderful POS town… and if you think there’s something wrong with the water down here, and the people who drink it… WATERTOWN is NOT the place you want to get thirsty.
THANK YOU MRS. OBAMA for delivering just the right amount of stupid with an overwhelming lack of research and foresight.
Watertown’s water… well, I’m not even sure that those DRATERS should be drinking it, and I’m damned sure that if that crusader-for-all-that-is-killing-us has told them to “Drink Up,” that that’s just what they’re doing… because Watertown, Wisconsin…
Well… just don’t drink the water.

The Watertown Tire Fire broke out on July 19th, 2005 at Watertown Tire Recyclers, a tire recycling facility located west of Milwaukee and about 40 miles northeast of Madison, Wisconsin. It’s thought the blaze spontaneously combusted in a large mound of shredded tires, which burn much more easily compared to whole tires. The fire erupted on a clear day with gentle westerly winds; by mid-afternoon the dark sooty smoke plume had over-passed Milwaukee and had reached central Lake Michigan over 90 miles away.

The massive tire fire has been cited as one of the Top 10 worst tire fires in history.
Tire fires contaminate groundwater, rivers & streams, and surrounding bodies of water for debatable periods of time… but I remember being told in 2005 by the same media that wants you to listen to her, and “Drink Up,” that Watertown’s groundwater might never recover from the incident.
Drink-Up suckers…
TIRE FIRE!
