Door Thwarts Quick Exit for Bush
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.
The president strode away from reporters looking annoyed after one said he appeared "off his game".
President Bush tugged at both handles on the double doors before admitting: "I was trying to escape. Obviously, it didn't work."
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."
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.
Imagine the reaction of John Kerry or Hillary Clinton to this.
HA HA HA... TOO funny. I love the picture.
Knock knock: Who there?
The President of the United States.
Who?
George Bush, President!
You want eggroll?
What?! I want out of this news conference!
What is this thing you say... news?

You want nice fried rice?
No. I want to leave this conference! Open this door!

Kerry's response: "That sonofabitch [of a Secret Service Agent] locked me in!"
Hillary's response: "Richard Mellon Scarfe and the Vast Rightwing Conspiracy locked me in!" She would then go on to propose a 1500 page piece of legislation calling for the Federal regulation of doorknobs...

Kerry: I came through this door before I couldn't go back through it.
