      Secretary: - Mr. President, Condoleeza Rice is here to see you.
      George B. : - Good, send her in.
      Secretary: - Yes sir.

      (Hangs up. Condi enters.)

      Condoleeza: - Good morning, Mr. President.
      George B. : - Oh Condoleeza, nice to see you. What's happening?
      Condoleeza : - Well, Mr. President, I have the report here about the new leader in China.
      George B. : - Great, Condi. Lay it on me.
      Condoleeza : - Mr. President, Hu is the new leader of China.
      George B. : - Well, that's what I want to know.
      Condoleeza : - But that's what I'm telling you, Mr. President.
      George B. : - Well, that's what I'm asking you, Condie. Who is the new leader of China?
      Condoleeza : - Yes.

      (Pause.)

      George B. : - Will you or will you not tell me the name of the new leader of China?
      Condoleeza : - Yes, sir.
      George B. : - Yassir? Yassir Arafat is in China? I thought he was in the Middle East.
      Condoleeza : - That's correct.
      George B. : - Then who is in China?
      Condoleeza : - Yes, sir.
      George B. : - Yassir is in China?
      Condoleeza : - No, sir.
      George B. : - Then who is?
      Condoleeza : - Yes, sir.
      George B. : - Yassir?
      Condoleeza : - No, sir.

      (Pause. Crumples paper)

      George B. : - Condi, you're starting to piss me off now, and it's not 'cause you're black neither. I need to know the name of the new leader of China. So why don't you get me the Secretary General of the United Nations on the phone.
      Condoleeza : - Kofi Annan?
      George B. : - No, thanks. And Condi, call me George. Stop with that ebonics crap.
      Condoleeza : - You want Kofi?
      George B. : - No.
      Condoleeza : - You don't want Kofi.
      George B. : - No. But now that you mention it, I could use a glass of milk. And then get me the U.N.
      Condoleeza : - Yes, sir.
      George B. : - Not Yassir! The guy at the United Nations.
      Condoleeza : - Kofi?
      George B. : - Milk! Will you please make that call?
      Condoleeza : - And call who?
      George B. : - Well, who is the guy at the U.N?
      Condoleeza : - No, Hu is the guy in China.
      George B. : - Will you stay out of China?!
      Condoleeza : - Yes, sir.
      George B. : - And stay out of the Middle East! Just get me the guy at the U.N.
      Condoleeza : - Kofi.
      George B. : - All right! With cream and two sugars. Now get on the phone.

      (Condi picks up the phone.)

      Condoleeza : - Hello. Rice, here.
      George B. : - Rice? Good id
