If you say so..........

[pgkdan]

Well...brain damage caused by lead poisoning would explain a lot...

[HarleyLady27]

The swamp in ‘sewer city’ needs to be cleaned out...starting with the House...

[Reno89519]

So, (1) maybe that is why they act so stupid and/or (2) how many drink tap water anyway? My bet is that every office has a water dispenser on our dime.

[pepsionice]

Correct me if I’m wrong, but I thought just about every White House office had a pallet of bottled water delivered weekly. I know for the Senate....everyone gets a couple dozen bottles weekly and they keep refrigerators to chill it. Other than for coffee use and flushing toilets, no one drinks the city water.

Explains Much it does.............

[butlerweave]

Hate to tell you but Lead is EVERYWHERE

[BobNative]

Most of the Pols and their bureaucrats do not drink tap water. They drink bottled water!

[Popman]

So according to the article, high lead levels that may be unsafe are slightly above EPA standards?

So which is it?

I would assume “slightly” means very little...

I’m sure based on their mental acuity, many democrat congressman ate paint chips as children...

So probably not a big deal the water is slightly above the minimum levels...

This may explain why those who have been there the longest, make some of the decision they make. It seems that many of the Democrats have spent many years slurping on the tainted water. That may explain why they regressed to a sit in last week.

[mountainlion]

They should be forced to use unleaded like the rest of us.

[mkjessup]

The majority of those Congress critters need MORE lead, but I’m not talking about it being in liquid form. ;)

[Joe 6-pack]

Somehow the American taxpayer will be punished for this.

[McGruff]

They better check the Senate’s water pipes for hallucinogenics.

[uncitizen]

So they need more money ?

[grobdriver]

See??

There IS something in the water in Washington D.C.!

[Covenantor]

Cannon House Office was built in 1908, so it's quite possible that old lead piping does exist in the building pipes.

Watch the House propose funding for a new ecologically compliant solar powered House Office building with all mod. conveniences made from sustainable components to be fastracked. NORKS will get the job.

[firebrand]

Somebody should tell them to suck it up. I used to chew on windowsills as a kid and I’m smarter than they are.

[Vinnie]

I would have guessed mercury poisoning, mad as a hatter.

[Cementjungle]

Another reason to implement term limits. The longer they stay there, the dumber they get.

[SgtHooper]

That would explain why so many congresscritters are brain dead.
