He is only fooling the gullible that he is actually drinking Flint Tap Water, just like he fooled others into thinking he swam in the coastal water when the BP Oil spill happened.

Pres. Barack Obama traveled to Flint, Mich., on Wednesday to meet with local and federal officials to discuss the water crisis there — and to reassure families that his administration is doing everything it can to make the water in Flint safe to drink.
To help illustrate his point, Obama drank from a glass of filtered water during a press briefing at the Food Bank of Eastern Michigan, which has become a hub for the response to the water crisis.
“Generally, I haven’t been doing stunts, but here you go,“ Obama said as he took a small sip of the water. “It just confirms what we know scientifically, which is, if you’re using a filter, if you’re installing it, then Flint water at this point is drinkable.”
The president, who declared a state of emergency for Flint in mid-January, was joined by Michigan Gov. Rick Snyder, Flint Mayor Karen Weaver and nearly two dozen others at the press conference.
“Filtered water is safe, and it works,” he said. “Working with the state and the city, filters are now available for everyone in the city.”

Obama acknowledged there is “a lot of suspicion” over whether the water is safe, urging families to have their children checked by a doctor for elevated lead exposure.
“Kids are resilient,” he said. “Every kid in Flint is special and has the capacity to do great things.”
The president also acknowledged the process of repairing or replacing water pipes in the city may take two years or more, asking residents to turn on their water taps for five minutes a day to help clean out the system.
“We have to take what has been a crisis and turn this into an opportunity to rebuild Flint even better than before,” Obama said.

The president also visited a local high school, where he met with a small group of residents including Dr. Mona Hanna-Attisha — the pediatrician credited with exposing the lead contamination in the Flint water supply — prior to delivering a speech in the school’s gymnasium.
But before Obama spoke, Governor Snyder approached the podium and was “instantly and loudly booed” by the crowd of about 1,000 people when his name was announced,” according to the pool report from a New York Times reporter traveling with the president:

Yeah I saw that, although his intention was to prove that he wasn't afraid to drink the water from Flint. I doubt it really was Flint water. :manny: Anyway, I hope things get fixed there. People can't live without water.

We all know it wasn't flint water. The only purpose of his trip should have been to drop them walking papers on Snyders desk. Each day that passes where that man still has a job is another day crimes against humanity go unpunished.
:childplease: walking papers to a governor? how about not electing tea party governors in the first place. :martin:

While I agree Snyder is a p.o.s, don't act like his actions are far worse than Barry's.
