WHAT'S THE MATTER WITH SNOWFLAKE, ARIZONA?

One of the right-wing loons who posts at Politico identifies himself as living in Snowflake, Arizona and it seems there's something bad with the water there. From Matt Corley at Think Progress:
On June 25, the Arizona Senate’s Retirement and Rural Development Committee discussed the prospects for uranium mining in the state. During the hearing, State Senator Sylvia Allen (R-Snowflake), the vice chairman of the committee, argued in favor of mining by saying that the earth “has been here 6,000 years, long before anybody had environmental laws, and somehow it hasn’t been done away with.”
