Who is at the Whitehouse?

Me han pasado por correo una broma acerca de G W Bush y Hu Jintao, el presidente de China de visita en los Estados Unidos. Buscando en Google, la broma parece que ya tiene unos cuantos años, pero es perfectamente válida a día de hoy.

Es una supuesta conversación entre Condolezza Rice y su jefe Bush, y hay que saber inglés para pillar la broma :)
