First read this story (http://www.mediabistro.com/fishbowldc/breakingmice-run-wild-at-allbrittons-politico_b31970) about a mouse infestation at the Politico.
Now...
This is a typical liberal situation. They have a problem. Everyone knows it. Everyone bitches about it, even quite publicly on Twitter, Facebook and other outlets. No one takes any initiative whatsoever to do anything about it.
Personally, if I was working in that office I would shell out my own money to kill the little bastards off. And I would enjoy it. I would have bait trays of Decon all around my office and would probably add peanut butter to them just to speed things up. It would cost next to nothing to deal with it. Especially if several others did the same. And then I would bill them for my expenses.
The fact that Politico management does nothing about it either (and hasn't for a very long time if the article is accurate) is also a study in liberal thought and behavior. Someone else will surely take care of the problem. Maybe Obama can get some stimulus dollars in here to fix it.
Or maybe the "thinking" by management is that the mice are just innocent members of the ecosystem and everyone just needs to learn to live with it. It's organic or something. Makes you wonder what the cockroach situation is like.

In the liberal world...mice are people too....
So why do they have mice? Could it be the the cookie eating newsroom is to lazy to clean up thier food mess?
Is it against their union contract to set out a few traps? Are the mice unionized? Is the newsroom considered a "safe haven"??? Are mice considered a step in the evolutionary chain?
In all likelyhood, the slobs in the newsroom created the problem, but as typical obama supporters, they blame others.

They're Hispanic-Mice and the Politico is a sanctuary

Ahh, the Liberal Mind...
...you're a Liberal. You see a small rodent. And suddenly, unbidden, it just pops into your head, "Hey, I wonder what it would be like to have that thing wriggling around in my hindquarters?" After that, things sort of run their course.
Just something to think about the next time you see Barney Frank.
Exit Question: Where is PETA on this?
And one more thought: It's a pity wolverines don't come in XXS.

Gere is a Buddhist. Maybe it's a Buddhist thing or something...become "one" with the gerbil. Somehow, though, I don't think the gerbil sees it that way. That's really a tough visual when you think about it: You're a gerbil and here comes Richard Gere's butt. Damn, lights out for you, gerbil.
It's probably a story that momma gerbils tell their young: "You had better be a good little gerbil or Richard Gere will put you in his butt," or "Straighten up buddy or I'm callin' Richard Gere!"
-
Maybe, if you are a gerbil, that's an option for suicide...just sort of seductively run in front of Richard Gere. Don't ask me what would qualify as "seductive" in terms of gerbil allure. Maybe they shake their little hips at him or wink or something.
-
....And one more thought: It's a pity wolverines don't come in XXS.
Maybe we could start an internet rumor that the "in" crowds in the bathhouses have been experimenting with small sharks.

Since it's some sort of a psycho/sexual thing for him, do you suppose that Richard Gere holds onto the "best" gerbils? Maybe he would keep them in jars of formaldehyde on his mantel so that he could look at them wistfully and recall, "Ahh, that Blinky...he was quite a gerbil." I don't know if he is sentimental or anything. Just sayin.

This thread has really kind of deteriorated, hasn't it? Maybe someone should report me to myself.

After all those replies and nobody noticed the obvious correlation of mice and DemonRats, it'd be like killing your cousin ::rolllaughing::
Oddly and sadly, they're more than willing to kill their unborn babies in effort to save the the planet or unable to take the responsibility of parenting a child. ::thinking::

I reported it!This has been nothing less than shameful. And tomorrow You can bet i'll follow this up with a strongly worded letter to the Times.

Yeah, but the muslim gerbil wouldn't survive the first of the 69 virgin Geres. Not much of a paradise if you ask me. Unless you are Richard Gere. I guess it would be happy time for him.

We've graduated. We have so much experience, we're now PRO-verts (Professional Perverts).

I must be one of them Proverts, this is just too damn funny!!!

Where is PETA on crap like this?
Maybe the same place that NOW was when Kennedy and Dodd were making waitress sandwiches.
So I guess the answer to the BIG question about what on earth the Politico is going to do with their rodent infestation is to turn Richard Gere and his like-minded friends loose in the Politico offices over a long weekend. Probably a four day weekend. They will need at least a day to clean up and fumigate the place.

Are we really that brutal? I know Gere's a fruit but.....come on now. ::puke::

I would like to think that "we" aren't that brutal. But some of the supposed "less than pedestrian" sex acts performed by "some" are quite brutal. I could probably list a few but won't.
The act or technique known as "gerbilling" is described thusly in wikipedia:
Gerbilling, also known as gerbil stuffing or gerbil shooting, refers to the supposed practice of inserting small animals, usually gerbils but also mice, hamsters, rats and various other rodents into a human rectum, supposedly to stimulate the prostate as in anal sex. Contrary to the popularity of the legend, gerbilling is unknown as an actual sexual practice, and despite apparently widespread public belief and persistent rumours, especially in the 1980s, no verified medical evidence of gerbilling exists, and its status is that of an urban legend. According to the Urban Legends Reference Pages (Snopes) inserting items into the rectum for purposes of auto-eroticism is practiced by people regardless of sexuality.
Rumors surrounding various male celebrities engaging in gerbilling have become popular urban legends over the years.[1] Jan Harold Brunvand records that the urban legend began in 1984, and initially involved a mouse and an unidentified gay man, but that in subsequent years this metamorphosed into a gerbil, and was applied to several named male celebrities that were publicly supposed to be gay, most commonly Richard Gere.
Here is the link to the Snopes article (http://www.snopes.com/risque/homosex/gerbil.asp) on the Richard Gere / gerbil affair.
(sadly, for reasons I don't understand, I can't cut and paste Snopes text)
EDIT: Okay, I found a workaround. In part they say this:
Contrary to public belief, "gerbil-stuffing" is unknown as an actual sexual practice, nor are we aware of a verified medical case of a gerbil having been extracted from a patient's rectum. Despite the assiduousness with which doctors record unusual items removed from patients' rectums in order to write them up as illustrative cases, we haven't yet found a medical journal article involving a gerbil removal. (Doctors, like most people, often repeat urban legends and stories told to them by others as first-person experiences, hence our standard for declaring this true is a peer-reviewed journal article rather than anecdote.) The notion of gerbilling (not necessarily restricted to homosexuals - the insertion of items into the rectum for purposes of autoeroticism is practiced by heterosexuals as well) appears to be pure invention, a tale fabricated to demonstrate the depravity with which "fa&&ots" allegedly pursue sexual pleasure. (While people do stick all sorts of unusual items up their rectums, they also do so for reasons other than sexual pleasure.
Must be interesting to be stinking rich, famous, handsome, successful and yet have this urban legend as the thing that you are arguably most known for. (Seriously...do a search for "Richard Gere" and the #3 result is "Richard Gere and the gerbil") Nevertheless, it has, as evidenced in the preceding posts, made for some very funny stuff at his expense.
Here is another article (http://urbanlegends.about.com/od/celebrities/a/richard_gere.htm) from the guy who writes about urban legends for About.com. It's pretty funny. He does, though, admit that, given human nature, it has almost certainly been tried by someone somewhere. I am skeptical...sounds like a good way to get yourself killed...rodents chew through darn near anything and the damage would be, well, ugly.
Anyone who knows about this very real sex act (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fisting) could certainly be forgiven for assuming that gerbilling is also a common practice among the deviant. Don't click on the link unless you are morbidly curious. You have been warned.

[blockquote]Richard Gere and Sylvester Stallone so disliked each other when they were both working on the set of The Lords of Flatbush, said Stallone in a recent Q & A session with readers of Ain't It Cool News, that the two came to blows, leaving the director no option but to fire one of them.
"Richard was given his walking papers and to this day seriously dislikes me," Stallone mused. "He even thinks I'm the individual responsible for the gerbil rumor. Not true... but that's the rumor."

I'd like to say, "You can't make this stuff up," but obviously, you can.
SIDE NOTE: I wonder how many more times we need to write the words "Richard Gere" and "gerbil" before we get listed as a top search result for either one or both?
2ND SIDE NOTE: I also wonder if you could get Barbara Walters loaded up on coke, do you suppose she would ask Gere about the gerbil thing in one of her stupid interviews?
