Bush Is Lucky the Queen's a Lady ---pix--->>>
I would've socked him for that remark. It only took him five minutes to insult her. Look at the monkey BLUSH.




This two picture combo shows President Bush and Queen Elizabeth II, before, top, and after, the president stumbled on a line during his speech at the state arrival ceremony for the queen, Monday, May 7, 2007, on the South Lawn at the White House in Washington. The president stumbled on a line in his speech, saying that the queen had dined with 10 U.S. presidents and had helped the United States 'celebrate its bicentennial in 17 ... .' Bush caught himself and corrected the date to 1976. He paused as if to see if the queen had taken offense. (AP Photo/J. Scott Applewhite) Email Photo Print Photo

10. I am heartily sick of her already and wish she would go away
Edited on Mon May-07-07 02:42 PM by nam78_two
She may be nice or whatever-I don't know-have not really followed her stuff-but I still find all the "royals" annoying.
I wish she would go away and take Bush with her.

I think it must be because the average age of DUers is about 60 that so many still have a reverential attitude toward her :shrug:? I don't personally know anyone from my generation who gives two straws about these people, but I know my aunts etc. still talk about the "grace and dignity of her majesty" blah blah.
Makes me mildly nauseous.

11. Shit, I'm closing on sixty

See Lewis Lapham's classic:

6. funny memory of one of the Queen's earlier visits . . .
I think it was during the Nixon administration, but I'm not at all sure of that . . . anyhow, one of the premier events of her visit to Washington was a formal ball, part of which was televised live . . . as the Queen entered the ballroom, the band struck up a number that, I'm sure, left someone without a job the next day . . .

the song they played to welcome Her Majesty was "The Lady is a Tramp" . . . true story . . . :)
