Door thwarts quick exit for Bush

George W Bush in Beijing

Watch what happened
President George W Bush tried to make a quick exit from a news conference in Beijing on Sunday - only to find himself thwarted by locked doors.

After answering just six questions from a group of US reporters, the president strode away heading towards the door.

President Bush tugged at both handles on the double doors before admitting: "I was trying to escape. Obviously, it didn't work."

Mr Bush was in China in the latest stop of his East Asia tour.

'Jet lag'

The president had called the news session with US reporters at his hotel.

His earlier meeting with Chinese President Hu Jintao did not permit media questions.

Mr Bush answered a range of questions before one reporter said: "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?"

The president answered: "Have you ever heard of jet lag? Well, good. That answers your question."

The reporter asked for a follow-up question but the president then thanked the attending journalists and said "No you may not" as he walked away.

He strode from the lectern to the door, trying both handles and then breaking into a laugh.

An aide escorted him to the correct exit and on to dinner at the Great Hall of the People.

Of course, the thread is useless without the classic humour of Farside

Saw that on the news tonight. Where were his advisors to tell him where to go?

He was trying to do something on his own. Should have learned from the Harriet Miers nomination, that's not a good idea. :lol:

I guess if he learned from his father's mistake; if you feel sick, you should probably move away from the Chinese leaders/ambassadors.

I just love that dumbass look on his face, it's priceless! Thanks for posting it up.

You should always have an exit strategy.

No fair! I was about to post that!

I demand that I get the credit for posting "Now THAT is comedy!" first.

Damned you, Charlatan;
Damned you to hell....


/ben looks to see if anyone is around; sobs quietly; wipes tears from eyes; pretends nothing happened.

Hey, can we get a Mod in here to delete my post, change the post time on Ben's post, and edit Charlatan's post? Ben needs it more than I do. :D I was probably tapping into his brainwaves or something, so it really was him posting first. Or perhaps, since he is living up in the Great White North, his fingers are too cold to type quickly, so I got in first. Or something.

Charlatan 11-21-2005 09:12 AM

Sorry Ben... couldn't help myself.

Thanks for the hell business though, it's been a little chilly around her lately and the warmth was welcome.

The poor guy can't get a break.. I've decided that george isn't all that dumb, I think someone is out there screwing with his teleprompters lying to him about WMDs and locking doors on him! Still pretty funny :)
