Smirky: "I was trying to escape. Obviously, it didn't work,"
I hope this quote will haunt this clown. He snipes at a reporter in China, telling him he can't follow up a question. Then he tries to swagger out a door on the stage, only the door is locked. This is what he turns and says to the reporters.

Will this be what he says to the Hague?

3. Run away, you coward. Show your true fucking colors.
That way your brainwashed followers might see you for what you truly are.

6. Apparently he beleives that leg lag comes at the end of the trip.
His off handed quips are absolutely pathetic. Who was the reporter that dared mention that he seemed off his game? * agreed apparently, attributing it to jetlag.

First he stops in Alaska on the way, then Japan, Korea and now China, and he finally feels jetlag. More likely hangover.

12. I thought this was even more telling
<snip>
"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?" he asked.

"Have you ever heard of jet lag?" Bush responded. "Well, good. That answers your question."
<snip>

Has he ever heard of, like, people whose jobs require them to travel around the world and be diplomatic and stuff and who get paid like half a million dollars a year needing to be, like, dignified instead of all snide and snotty and maybe acquiring some skills after five years of doing it?

13. sounds like someone needs a nap...or a time out.
Frankly, I would love to see more politicians locked in a room with reporters and cameras. Maybe then they will be forced to give real answers for a change.

However, in order to save our country from more embarrassment, perhaps we should keep anyone from the Bush family from visiting Asia.
