Mentally-Ill Mickey

Scientists have "successfully" bred a mentally-ill mouse. It keeps muttering about global warming, rolling back tax cuts and the most ethical Congress in history.

SCIENTISTS have created the world’s first schizophrenic mice in an attempt to gain a better understanding of the illness.

It is believed to be the first time an animal has been genetically engineered to have a mental illness. Until now they have been bred only for research into physical conditions such as heart disease. It will allow researchers to study the disease and develop treatments using a limitless supply of laboratory animals.

What will really be interesting is when they breed a mouse counselor. :)
