Bush Tries To Cut And Run

President Bush was giving a speech today in Bejing and tried to make a getaway. After a day of talking with President Hu and other Chinese officials, the President spoke to some U.S. reporters. One reporter was critical of his performance earlier that day and asked: "Respectfully, sir -- you know we're always respectful -- in your statement this morning with President Hu, you seemed a little off your game, you seemed to hurry through your statement. There was a lack of enthusiasm. Was something bothering you?".

Apparently, there was something bothering him, because he got testy and answered- "Have you ever heard of jet lag? Well, good. That answers your question." Bush then went on to discuss positive developments from the trip. The reporter soon asked if he could have a follow-up question, prompting Bush to end the press conference and tell the reporter "No you may not" as he hastily headed for a set of nearby doors... which turned out to be locked.

"I was trying to escape. Obviously, it didn't work", the President noted.

He was then pointed to the correct door and exited.

No Exit


"What the hell??!"

It's not his fault, though. He just got some bad intelligence on which door to use.
