Bush, Roh Have Testy Exchange at Summit
snip
"I think I did not hear President Bush mention the - a declaration to end the Korean War just now," Roh said as cameras clicked and television cameras rolled.

Bush, now looking irritated, replied: "I can't make it any more clear, Mr. President. We look forward to the day when we can end the Korean War. That will end - will happen when Kim verifiably gets rid of his weapons programs and his weapons."

The White House immediately downplayed the testy exchange and said the meeting went smoothly. "There was clearly something lost in translation," National Security Council spokesman Gordon Johndroe said in a rushed e-mail to reporters.
