President Bush Vomits On Japanese Prime Minister

"I say hurl... if you blow chunks and she comes back, she's yours... but if you spew and she bolts, it was never meant to be." (credit to Wayne's World)

Sorry,but anybody puking on anybody is awkward,let alone the President ralphing all over a Prime Minister.

What are the odds that Abraham Zapruder would be there with his movie camera to capture a pivitol moment in Presidential history again!

The similarities between this video and the film he took in Dealy Plaza in 1963 are eerie. Right down to the First Lady holding the President's head together and the secret service agent throwing his body in the way to "take one" for the Japanese Prime Minister.

I wouldn't be surprised to find a whole school of conspiracy theory on the subject.

This happened to me and will happen to you too if it's your first time in a sushi joint. It was just too much for me when the guy across from me bit into a sushi roll and lichen oozed out the end of it.

Will someone please explain this to the uninitiated?

If you want an explanation of the predatory marketing practices of the Japanese auto industry, and its negative effects on U.S. automakers, look no further than this.

So he got sick. What's the big deal? I'm sure he didn't do it on purpose. The prime minister just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Embarrassing, and a troubling moment too. He didn't look too well there. I remember when this caused the press to go ballistic at the thought of Dan Quayle having to take over for Bush should the situation warrant.

Everybody makes Mistakes. I'm just glad my Mistakes are not broadcast All over the world.

Also: Ew.

ooops.

Awkward, yes.  But maybe the first President Bush got confused.  I've heard that in some cultures, a belch after a meal is considered good manners.  Perhaps H.W. mistakenly thought vomiting was the proper etiquette.

Poor man. I'm sure he was so embarrassed.

So this is why rice imports went up.

What a way to extend friendship to your Asian counterparts... ralph on them. Funnily enough, it probably showed better foreign relations skills than his son ever managed...
