National Journal ^ | September 13, 2013 | George E. Condon Jr.

Posted on 09/15/2013 9:17:10 AM PDT by BerryDingle

It was just a cockroach, one of millions around the world. But this one had a White House address, making it pretty special. Well, special at least to the reporters with workspace in the often-troubled basement of the press offices. Already this year, they have been treated to flooding, soaked carpet, mousetraps and the wondrous odors of mold.

As in cockroaches. But vermin is nothing new in a building that is 213 years old--and roaches aren't the worst of it.

Not to mention flies. Always with the flies.

Coming soon: pustering boils and frogs.

He'll probably boil the frogs in the pus (sp?)

and eat them.

They probably have a fly problem year around. I’m sure Zip and his Czars have the windows open all summer and have the thermostat turned up to 110 all winter.

The vermin is of the two legged type, not four legged.

Probably doesn’t help that she leaves half eaten Wagyu Beef Sliders and Lobster Tail carcasses laying around on the nightstand.

It is hard to get rid of roaches when you have to be concerned that any remedy you use might affect POTUS, in particular.

Sounds like a place you would put the reporters - - at least the reporters you haven’t hired to work for your regime yet.
They get the nice offices.

I read the article last night. I can’t believe Reagan put up with any “humane” nonsense for rodents and insects. Carter either, given what he tried to do to that rabbit, and shame on any president letting bureaucrats keep their jobs for passing the buck on the responsibility for taking care of the problems.

“Probably doesn’t help that she leaves half eaten Wagyu Beef Sliders and Lobster Tail carcasses laying around on the nightstand.”

The above is just a Rethuglican slander rumor. The First Wookie is well known to leave virtually nothing uneaten.

Ribs draw vermin. Those gnawed over racks of ribs draw vermin nearly as well after being gnawed on as their demise in the paws of the First Wookie proved.
