113. Hey, in the 2008 version is was Obama wanting to dump nuke waste on poor people, but in reality

Sierra Blanca never got any such waste. Sierra Blanca did serve as the sewage treatment site for train loads of NYC sludge for many many years.
This happened, but no one speaks of it:
"This week the Texas Toxic Tour takes us to Sierra Blanca Texas, home to the nation's largest sewage sludge dump. The story examines how Sierra Blanca, a small town on the U.S./Mexico border, became the resting place for New York City's sewage. The video interview includes a meeting with several local residents concerned with unusual health problems. Additionally, this segment will focus on how the TNRCC ignored local health concerns and illegal dumping to support tripling New York's waste being dumped in the Lonestar State. "

They called the trains 'The Poo Poo Choo Choo'. Went on for years. Never mentioned by those affecting great concern for that community......
