I'm at a lost for words. . .so I will leave it to others:

The beginning of the end of the press conference came moments earlier when a reporter asked Bush whether he was "off his game" at an earlier meeting with Chinese President Hu Jintao.

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

When the reporter asked for a quick follow-up question, Bush responded, "No, you may not," and strode off.

A lighter moment on the trip came when the US leader sought to leave a news conference in Beijing but was thwarted by locked doors. He appeared to be making a hasty exit after being irked by a reporter who asked if the President was "off his game" in an earlier appearance with Mr Hu in the Great Hall of the People on Tiananmen Square.
"I was trying to escape. Obviously, it didn't work," Mr Bush quipped, facing reporters again until an aide rescued him by pointing him toward the correct door.

Irked by a reporter who told him he seemed to be "off his game" at a public appearance here, President Bush sought to make a hasty exit from a news conference but was thwarted by locked doors. At the end of a day of meetings with Chinese President Hu Jintao and other officials, Bush held a session with a small group of U.S. reporters and spoke at length about religious freedom, the Iraq war and the value of China's currency.

The final reporter he called on assessed Bush's performance earlier in the day when he stood beside Hu in the Great Hall of the People near Tiananmen Square to deliver a statement.

"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."
