Ever since he found out General Hamm was about to storm the WH...

I can’t resist, I have to ask. What do you mean there? Do you mean “storm” literally? Are you talking about a coup?

Obama And The US Army Open The Door To The UN
http://noisyroom.net/blog/2014/08/01/obama-and-the-us-army-open-the-door-to-the-un/

I didn’t know it was possible for a non-American to hold that position. Then again, I didn’t know it was possible for a non-American to occupy the Oval Office.
