The Queen and President Obama
As Air Force One arrives at Heathrow Airport,
\President Obama strides to a warm and dignified reception from the Queen.
They are driven in a 1934 Bentley to the edge of central London,
where they change to a magnificent 17th century carriage hitched to six white horses,
and continue on towards Buckingham Palace,
waving to the thousands of cheering Britons; all is going well.
Suddenly the right rear horse lets fly with the most horrendous
earth shattering f--t ever heard in the British Empire.
The smell is atrocious and both passengers in the carriage
must use handkerchiefs over their noses.
The f--t shakes the coach,
but the two dignitaries of State do their best to ignore the incident.
The Queen turns to President Obama,
" Mr. President, please accept my regrets...
I am sure you understand there are some things
that even a Queen cannot control."
Obama, always trying to be "Presidential," replied:
"Your Majesty, do not give the matter another thought..
. Until you mentioned it,
I thought it was one of the horses.
