Hilarious: Hu's on First

A brilliant comedy routine by playwright Jim Sherman written as Hu Jintao was named chief of the Communist Party. See the whole thing at the link above, but some excerpts following initial Abbott & Costello fumbling:

Condi: Hu is leading China.

George: Now whaddya' asking me for?

Condi: I'm telling you Hu is leading China.

George: Well, I'm asking you. Who is leading China?

Condi: That's the man's name.

George: That's who's name?

Condi: Yes.

George: Will you or will you not tell me the name of the new leader of China?

Condi: Yes, sir.

George: Yassir? Yassir Arafat is in China? I thought he was in the Middle East.

Condi: That's correct.

George: Then who is in China?

Condi: Yes, sir.

George: Yassir is in China?

Condi: No, sir.

George: Look, Condi. I need to know the name of the new leader of China. Get me the Secretary General of the U.N. on the phone.

Condi: Kofi?

George: No, thanks.

And so it goes.

Gentlemen

This skit was done by Johnny Carson years back when Ronald Regan was president. I recall James Watt on first.
