Bush's EPA wants more sewage in your drinking water

[dissent1977]

Here is a petition I found that everyone should look at. Does anyone know anything more on this? It certainly sounds outrageous, and if this is true it would be a very fun issue to debate Bush supporters on. I can't wait to see Ann Coulter on television frothing at the mouth about how liberals want to put unfair restrictions on the amount of sewage can go into our water.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Two phrases you never want to see in the same sentence: drinking water and "sewage blending." And yet, that's the Bush Administration's new plan for your water supply!

Incredibly, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is about to relax restrictions on dumping sewage into our waterways. Their plan would allow water treatment facilities to release sewage filled with human wastes, toxins, bacteria, viruses, parasites and other pollutants into our drinking water.

"Sewage blending" poses a serious threat to our health and our communities. Sewage that has not been fully treated carries diseases such as cholera, hepatitis, respiratory infections, and others which can be life threatening for those with weakened immune systems.

In addition to the health hazards, sewage dumping will have adverse, long-term environmental and economic consequences. Sewage in our waterways forces beach closings, increases the cost of drinking water filtration, damages coral reefs, shuts down shellfish beds, and robs the water of oxygen that fish need to breathe.

2. I swear

These Bushes want to Cull us.Our Earth can not sustain _all_ of us, AND our consumer lifestyles.If the people will not decide to not have more kids,If we keep letting corporations rule..and we do not take control over our civilization from these"elites" we are going to be murdered.

Look at the"futile life laws",along side better armor causing worse brain damage,look at all the sicknesses that are around, depleted uranium and no way to get help because no one but the rich or favorites of the rich can get insurance because insurance will not insure sick people.

And they wanna cull us in a way that looks"accidental"and gives them plausible deniability,

Drinking sewer water,no insurance,bio terrorism,global warming,genetically engineered food chemicals that poison in everything,lead allowed back into paint,drug addiction,drugs being pushed through new freedom commission,authoritarians getting away with abuses,,.it all adds up folks..these people in power now,in the church state and corporation are dangerous sociopaths( wealthy elitist parasites) looking to kill us (the host)so that they and their Friends can steal our planet,and live here without so many of us,An uprising with the masses we have now could end their reign forever. They want to cull us so our numbers are less,they'll hide away safe until the riots stop and they can come out,after awhile,enslave us who are desperate for food warmth safety..because most people do not know how to survive in this country most people don't know how to cope with boredom and their own emotions..let alone a slow paced scrabble existence on a polluted infected dangerously scarcely resourced planet.Alot of people who are desperate and arrogant,bullies will steal rather than share.

The "elites will Use us, like they used us before... by duping us with the profit or some other zero sum game, by distractions,using our bigotries so we fight each other, stoking our fears,use religion,exploit our fantasies,let us live in ignorance and encourage selfishness,and have us work to spare our loved ones..All of these things can be used as tools to'cocerce us into accepting "willing" slavery to make the world green again for them, build their 'pyramids' ,and when they come for the desperate few they with the food and guns can'begin' ruling a much more manageable sized,plebeian to elitist and servant ratio ..Then civilization will start again in a more secure controlled, slave state.The people that rule nations are closer to developing the kind of technologies to make a secure slave state possible. And when they have it ,they will crash civilization and cull the masses.The survivors will conform serve accept their control devices or die.

I fear this is what these monsters that rule want.]

And our inaction and refusal to put it together is in effect permission for them to continue destroying.
