It wasn&rsquo;t until my third shot, where I accidentally shot my own foot, that I had shot the president twice. I was officially injured and unable to govern, when Dennis Hastert came in, and stepped on the butt handle of the rifle causing it to swing up like a rake and shoot his hair off. I guess I&rsquo;m officially responsible for that too, meaning I shot the acting president for a total of three occupants of the oval office.
