Below are further comments on Hu Jintao’s State dinner at the White House:

“My eyes also welled with tears... seeing Obama greeting Hu Jintao at the White House.

Truth be told, I was invited by Obama personally but have sent my regrets because he also invited Jacky Chan. I'd rather not be in the same room with this fellow who has never missed a chance to shoot himself in the foot or put his foot in his mouth, whichever comes first! It turned out he never had a chance to speak...it would certainly be another one of those most embarrassing moments. GOD SAVES CHINA! THANK GOD!” -- Bob C.

“I was surprised to see that wimp (Jacky Chan) was invited. I too was glad that he did not have a chance to speak. I note from HK news that in one survey, he is the first one on the list of the untrustworthy.” -- Tim Fook H.

“A source from the White House told me that Mrs Obama was terribly disappointed with Mrs Hu’s no-show. She was really looking forward to learning a thing or two about advanced rice-cooking techniques from Mrs Hu. Like her husband, she wanted the Chinese people to know she is a Sinophile, and prides herself for being able to cook rice for her husband. She doesn’t mind being called a rice-cooking woman as long as the Chinese buy more planes, computers, software from America, and devalue the Yuan.

Jacky Chan was at the state dinner at the insistence of President Hu, for cost cutting reasons. Jacky is known to be able to defeat an entire army of bad guys single-handedly, jump off buildings like Spiderman and dodge bullets like Superman. With him around, all the bad guys, including Dalai Lama’s supporters, melted away. We can see why the state visit went off without a hitch.” -- Peter W.

“I guess most of us were all filled with tears when we saw Chairman Hu being treated to the grandest American State dinner. Some have their eyes patriotically filled with tears because, the “Yellow Sick Man" finally stands tall in the White House. Some (like me) have their mouths filled with drool while craving for the exotic food on the dinner table.

If I had known that you guys hate Jackie Chan so much, I would have done differently. Actually, Jackie Chan was taking my place at my request. I was invited by Chairman Hu to the dinner but couldn't make it because of schedule conflict, so I asked Jackie, my favorite cousin (Bui Shuk Chai, a Fuzhou slang), to represent me there. So, if that turns out to be a mistake, I shall have my butts rinsed and ready for your slashing!

A reliable source told me that Chairman Hu did not enjoy all the American food served at the state dinner. After all the photo sessions, Obama took the Chairman to DC Chinatown and ‘treated him with a young juicy ‘dark meat chicken’ (Soy Sauced Chicken). And of course Mrs. Hu was not there!” -- Charles C.
