RWV: Mr. President, did you apologize to Hu?
Bush: Oh, you mean on Wenyi?
RWV: Actually, Sir, I think it was on Thursday.
Bush: Who?
RWV: Yes, Hu. On Wenyi Thursday.
Bush: Wenyi was on Thursday, yes.
RWV: So, you did apologize, then?
Bush: To Who? Wenyi?
RWV: No. I mean, um ... Yes, Hu ... but on Thursday, not Wednesday - about Wenyi.
Bush: What about Wednesday?
RWV: What?
Bush: No, I think Wuat could be the finance minister, not sure. But he wasn't here.
RWV: Where
Bush: With Hu
RWV: What? With Hu where?
Bush: No, I just told you, Wuat wasn't here, Hu was.
RWV: Who?
Bush: Yes, that's right.
RWV: Who?
Bush: Yes.
RWV: Yes, what?
Bush: No, dammit, Wuat wasn't, no, Hu, yes, was.
RWV: Sir, is that Chinese?
Bush: What?
RWV: No, no, Mr. President, not Wuat, Hu, Thursday on Wenji, not Wuat, Hu Wednesday.
Bush: So, you speak Chinese, too?
RWV: Who?
Bush: What?
RWV: Chinese?
Bush: Hell, they're all Chinese, so what ...?
RWV: Wuat what?
Bush: What?
RWV: Yes ...?
Bush: Yes, what?
RWV: Yes Wuat what, what?
Bush: Huh?
RWV: Minister of Defense Hua?
Bush: Yeah! Thought I had you with that one. Heh!
RWV: Me?
Bush: No, Mi, Hua and Wuat didn't make the trip with Hu.
RWV: Oh
Bush: Next week, I think.
RWV: What?
Bush: Maybe next year.
RWV: Huh?
Bush: Not scheduled that I'm aware of.
RWV: Okay.
Bush: Never heard of 'em.
RWV: Who?
Bush: Nice guy ... sorry I'm out of time. Glad I could answer your questions, though.
RWV: Thank you, Mr. President.
Seems Bob is in a humourous mood, too. ; )
The funniest thing about that incident with the screamer was that every camera at the ceremonies immediately turned to her and stayed on her. HA HA HA..... so much for you, President Hu. We Americans like the good stuff!! Don't you know! Evidently, the reportage in China went black during that spell. I wonder if they thought something nuclear had happened. hahahahaha
