My water is so highly chlorinated that it was killing my plants, you can smell it, I had the water company send a guy out to test it and he said it was fine, so I handed him a glass and asked him to take a drink, he wouldn't, I dared him, he still refused which was rather telling. Lol!

There has been lead found in our school's drinking water, Cairo Northeast R-IV. We have water that smells of chlorine and sometimes other odors in our system.

Victoria Hale

Water is rusty color at times and has a sour egg smell. I drink bottle water because of it.

The current administration of Iran has proven to be unreliable and is not trustworthy.

Max

Iran has plenty of oil for energy generation.

Fred

No, not as long as the current regime is in power. Theocracies are always bad news ... something we should keep in mind!

Max

That has been going on since the Prophet Muhammad found the Muslim church in 610 AD.

The Constitution vests the power in the legislative branch to ensure decisions on war are made democratically, rather than by a single person.

It would take congress years to make a decision, and the amount of pork required would be phenomenal. Congress is dysfunctional.

Max

Most congressmen are millionaires, but our nation is nearly $40 Trillion in debt.

Max

Congress can't even pass a budget to fund the government.
