Veep sleeps through meeting with Chinese President Hu.


The NY Times today reported that Chinese officials were outraged over the White House accrediting a reporter who screamed at Mr. Hu from the stands, and mistakenly referring to China by the name of its archrival Taiwan. Adding insult to injury, here’s a picture of Vice President Dick Cheney sleeping during Mr. Hu’s press conference.

:wtf:

He's sleeping through it all. Must have had "one beer" before the meeting!

1. Dont wake him up. If he gets startled, he could have a heart attack
or, worse, he might shoot someone!

3. They should wheel him back to his room.
so that he can bounce off the walls and not worry about drooling on himself!

5. Heart meds
I'm certain this is a result of the combination of cardiac disease and the meds he takes. Obviously unfit to hold the office.

6. Even without the meds, he is still unfit to hold the office.

No interest whatsoever in learning about other cultures.

12. Condi did too
There was another photo someone posted a couple of days ago that showed the same scene from a different angle which included BOTH Condi and Darth catching zzzzz's. So embarrassing! I swear, it's like they did everything they could possibly think of to insult Hu and China. I feel like sending a note of apology to China... "please forgive us that our entire administration is a bunch of rude, crass, insulting dorks - we didn't vote for them."
