User blog:Bzero/DC Falls to Cobra

ARLINGTON, VA. - Washington, DC has fallen, and the Cobra flag now flies over the White House.

American forces were forced to retreat from the District of Columbia Monday night, unable to resist the wave of Cobra's Battle Android Troopers. Personnel were evacuated from all major government buildings, and White House staff-in-exile insist former President Hussein Dunham is safe in an undisclosed location, although he has not been seen since the initial invasion.

Commenting on the attack, incoming President John MacLeod repeated the remarks he made after his inauguration at MacLeod Towers in Florida on Friday, stating, "Now is the time for action, not empty words or promises. I am going to strengthen our military and intelligence assets to where things like this won't be able to happen. We will drive these terrorists out and we will wipe them off the face of this planet."

When pressed on exactly how he was going to go about freeing the now sixteen American cities controlled by Cobra, MacLeod insisted he didn't tip his hand when dealing with terrorists, and that the military response would be coming soon.
