VOLE DASHES IN-FRONT OF OBAMA!

Yesterday President Obama gave a presidential address to try and solve an ongoing Wall Street battle. As he began to address the audience, a small rodent ran across in-front of the podium. Some photographers snapped a photo of it but questions of what kind of rodent it was began to be discussed. A wildlife biologist, Russell Link, identified the rodent as a vole, which is commonly referred to as a meadow mouse. The vole ran from one bush, across the steps where Obama was, and into another bush. It is not clear whether the president saw the rodent or not, but minutes later he went into his office without answering questions. Workers at the White House said this was not the first sighting of a rodent appearing at a president address; surprisingly the same rodent appeared the week before when camera crews were setting up for a previous presidential address. The White House was originally built on swamp, so there is no surprise that rodents are an issue.
