Second of all, it's funny. It could not possibly fail to be funny. There is no circumstance under which the leader of the free world asking permission from his secretary of state to go to the bathroom during high-level meetings could not be funny. No matter who the president was. FDR could have written that note, and I'd be spitting out my Victory Garden tomatoes and falling on the floor laughing.
The fact that the note writer is often suspected of not really being in charge of his own administration anyway?
Even funnier.
