(While visiting the White House) Chris Rock hidden from President Bush
http://www.presstelegram.com/Stories/0,1413,204~21474~2681668,00.html

this is a very short story that may or may not speak volumes

Chris Rock hidden from President Bush

By Press-Telegram wire services

Comedian Chris Rock says he spent an impromptu tour of the White House hiding from the president.
Rock was filming a movie in Washington a year ago when, during a break, he walked past the White House.

"A black security guard spotted me and took me into the White House," Rock told The Associated Press recently. "I was walking around the whole White House. It was weird because (President) Bush was there and they were hiding me from Bush."

14. I doubt it
He didn't do much damage in his 2004 HBO special.

I was disappointed he didn't shred Bush.

5. It sounds like the guard just took Chris Rock in without permission,

which was no doubt fun, but dangerous -- for Rock and the guard. Sneaking around inside the White House with today's everyone-is-an-enemy mindset could get you shot by Secret Service.

6. They're probably checking Rocks' Safeway card records as we speak.

8. For what purpose?
To find out whether he buys the nacho cheese or cool ranch flavor of Doritos?

10. Oh I recognize the danger, I'm a big privacy guy.
I was just kidding around.
I'm pretty punchy right now.

7. Now that is funny!!!

Too bad they never met, Rock would have told Bush off real good. After I watched the movie "Head of State", despite the cheesiness of it, and the somewhat campy feel, I say elect Rock as President, better than 3/4 the politicians there.
