| Aller une autre pour le zapping de la fin d'année : - Spoiler:
US homeowners searching for help with their mortgages struggled to get through on a telephone number that President Bush gave them on Thursday.
"I have a message for every homeowner worried about rising mortgage payments: the best you can do for your family is to call 1-800-995-HOPE," he said.
But those who went in search of hope got a busy signal - the president had given them the wrong number.
The number Bush gave was for the Freedom Christian Academy in Texas.
The school phone rang non-stop when Bush gave out the number.
"I've tried my best to give the correct number to these people when they called," the academy's Ms Karen Pulaski told the Dallas Morning News, having spoken to more than 50 people in an hour.
"But it got a little overwhelming because I couldn't do anything except answer these calls."
Ms Pulaski later disconnected the phone.
The correct number, White House aides later told reporters, was 1-888-995-HOPE.
