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."

1. Am I remembering this wrong?

Didn't * say, during the 2000 campaign, that he would never get on a stage and speak in Beijing unless he had a 'clear exit strategy'?

Or maybe he said that about something else ...

2. Cowards cut and run, Mr. President

3. LOL that's the funniest thing I've seen in a long time

and as much as I hate to admit it, I was amused at his sense of humor about it

4. As big and stupid as he looked, he had no other choice

No one can look quite as dumb as he does just at the least appropriate moment.

9. He had not other suitable recourse...

It's his only fallback. The only good tool in his shed is time-critical and circumstantial levity.

It keeps him barely a step ahead of 'Buffoon'.

5. Has he ever looked presidential?

If he wasn't so evil and destructive I'd feel sorry for him.

8. Priceless expression on his face--

What you see is all there is.

What a moron

10. I think he was just shocked
