"The General" can't get his kit off

That great champion of democracy Pakistan's President Pervez "The General" Musharraf has said that he would like to take off his military uniform but that due to some freak occurrence, not unlike those that happen to superheroes early in their careers, he cannot as his uniform is now his skin. He has also said that the Pakistani military did not wish to become in politics but were "invited to tend civil administration". That has to be the strangest euphemism for a coup that I have ever heard.
