Raccoons Invade White House Yard, Looking For Bailouts, Perhaps?
But, apparently, Obama doesn’t like raccoons, either
A small band of masked intruders has broken into the secure White House grounds and has evaded capture by agents of the new Obama administration, officials said today.
The National Park Service is in pursuit of one very large raccoon and several medium-sized raccoons, who have been spotted roaming the grounds around the Executive Mansion and the West Wing, a spokesman said.
“The idea of raccoons on the White House grounds give us great pause,” spokesman Bill Burton said.
So far, the raccoons have evaded capture despite the presence of several “live traps,” which are essentially cages with a one-way doors to keep the animals inside.
Hah! Raccoons 1- White House 0
Not to beat a dead horse (who am I kidding, I’m going to beat this drum for at least a year or two), but, imagine if Dubya was in the WH when this occurred. The NPS states that, once captured, the raccoons will be released in a wooded area. Liberals and all sorts of animal rights groups would be screeching that the raccoons should be allowed to stay. Anyhow, they would go perfectly with Obama’s White House farm, eh?
PS: I like raccoons. I think they are amusing. I know they made dear old Dad nuts, what with the way they went after the garbage cans, but, I didn’t have to clean it up

When those masked raiders are caught, those varmints will need a good grilling.

As a hopeless animal lover, I can’t help but like raccoons. I hope they evade capture for a long time. Maybe it will inspire a cute cartoon for future generations of children, in which the white house staff tries hard to catch the raccoons while the wily critters outwit all attempts. There could be a lot of comical episodes to this. There could even be episodes that take place in the actual white house itself.
Hopefully Sasha and Malia will have the joy of seeing these little masked bandits. It will be a wonderful nature lesson for them.
i hope the raccoons are not humans, who want to bring back old remarks of the coon are on the front porch. please dont do or say that it is true, the united states have come a long way since the 50-60’s, i bellieve we are on one accord. even though we might have some people still think in the cold way of old wine,new bottles
Michael, you’re all over airways talking about you coons. Never was important before you had a BLACK President ha? You’re worried about coons when some many people are losing their jobs.
He said coons. Hahahah
I cannot believe the idiot reporters!!! I’m sure someone is getting a really good laugh about this. If there are “raccoons” in the white house grounds they’ve been there a while. It just shows that reporters aren’t thinking they are just reading a teleprompt.
Next thing you know they will find watermellons in the gardens. Come on folks lets try to
be a little more original…
