We. Need. More. Lead.

"The founding fathers had lead pipes and they turned out fine! If they didn't intend for us to have lead pipes, they wouldn't have put them in. Getting rid of them is simply un-American!"

Cant wait for republicans to mix Ivermectin-Horse-Dewormer with Lead to drink it on camera as a symbol of their patriotism. It would be a Christmas Miracle come true...
