Comedian Craig Ferguson poked fun at reports the government shutdown has caused harm to the First Ladies White House garden Tuesday night:
CRAIG FERGUSON: Oh, yeah. Washington. There is even more bad news from Washington today. Because of the government shutdown, the White House is under attack. By squirrels. Dun-dun! [laughter] I don't think that is the right sound effect for a squirrel attack? Yeah. You got pictures of squirrels attacking the White House? There they are. Wow, they are huge!
Our broken system can still be adorable. The reason they've invaded the White House garden, The White House gardeners were laid off during the shutdown. Before the shutdown, it was a lovely vegetable garden.
Michelle Obama planted a garden to show how easy it is to grow your own food. All you need is water, sunlight -- and 50 full-time federal employees. A lot of people got mad when Michelle Obama expanded the White House garden. That just shows you some people don't know their history. When Eleanor Roosevelt grew a garden, it was a "victory garden." but when Michelle Obama does it, it's a "communist plot." ha ha ha! See what I did?
