It won't be the first. I always thought it needed a paint job anyway.
August 24 1814
On this day in 1814, (click here) during the War of 1812 between the United States and England, British troops enter Washington, D.C. and burn the White House in retaliation for the American attack on the city of York in Ontario, Canada, in June 1812.
When the British arrived at the White House, they found that President James Madison and his first lady Dolley had already fled to safety in Maryland. Soldiers reportedly sat down to eat a meal made of leftover food from the White House scullery using White House dishes and silver before ransacking the presidential mansion and setting it ablaze....
It was a long time ago before the USA had killer drones. See, now a days the USA can attack Daesh without causalities. So, we send President Obama and his family and the White House Staff on vacation and we put drones all over Washington DC. Should be interesting. Everyone tune in and watch a new definition of the Grateful Dead.
