Colbert: Buy my Rocket Fuel Soft Drink

Steven Colbert would like to serve the EPA a cold glass of mockery.

Since the agency may overlook a serious environmental problem, the contamination of US drinking water with perchlorates, an ingredient of rocket fuel, the comedian rationalized that this would be a good time to sell a soft drink called Liquid Launch.

On Wednesday, he raised the question: Why would you want to drink tap water that only contains one ingredient of rocket fuel when you can buy a delicious beverage that contains all of them?

Bravo, Steven! And thanks for including references to CNN and AP stories during your brilliant satire.

What other environmental problems is the government ignoring?
