Sacha Baron Cohen tried to get into the White House while posing as a fake TV reporter from Kazakhstan, but he didn't succeed.

Secret Service agents turned away Cohen, who was pretending to be Borat, an anti-semitic journalist.

He was there to invite President Bush to a screening of his movie, "Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan."

Borat also invited O.J. Simpson, "Mel Gibsons" and other "American dignitaries" to the screening.

Cohen's attempt to enter the White House coincided with an official visit by Kazakh President Nursultan Nazarbayev, who will meet with Bush on Friday.

Borat has offended Kazakhs by claiming their country is filled with drunken anti-Semites who treat their women worse than donkeys.

Borat called a Kazakh ad campaign running in U.S. magazines "disgusting fabrications" orchestrated by Uzbekistan.

He said, "If there is one more item of Uzbek propaganda claiming that we do not drink fermented horse urine, give death penalty for baking bagels, or export over 300 tons of human pubis per year, then we will be left with no alternative but to commence bombardment of their cities with our catapults."
