Bush Meeting the Queen in London
Editor's Note - We are informed by a publisher in the United Kingdom that the origins of this joke are as follows: The story below is an adaption of a true
story about Queen Victoria and one of her courtiers as she was being taken by coach through the streets of London. A horse pulling the carriage broke wind
(farted).......she said "Whoops excuse me", the courtier said, "Ma'am, if you had not spoken, no one would ever have known".
At Heathrow, a 300-foot long red carpet is stretched out to Air Force One and President Bush strides to a warm but dignified handshake from Queen Elizabeth
II.
They ride in a silver 1934 Bentley limousine to the edge of central London where they board an open 17th century coach hitched to six magnificent white
matching horses. They ride toward Buckingham Palace, each looking sideways and waving to the thousands of cheering Britons lining the streets, all is going
well. Suddenly the right rear horse lets fly with the most horrendous, earth-rending, eye-smarting blast of gastronomic flatulence ever heard in the
British Empire, including Bermuda, Tortola and the Falkland Islands. It shakes the coach. Uncomfortable, but under control, the two dignitaries of state
do their best to ignore the whole incident, but then the Queen decides that's ridiculous.
She turns to Mr. Bush and explains, "Mr. President, please accept my regrets. I'm sure you understand that there are some things that even a Queen
cannot control."
George W. Bush, ever the gentleman, replies, "Your Majesty, please don't give the matter another thought. You know, if you hadn't said something, I
would have thought it was one of the horses...."
