US President George Bush Winks At The Queen

George Bush has raised a few eyebrows after mixing up his dates during a speech and then winking at the Queen.

His slip-up came during the official welcome ceremony on the south lawn of the White House, which was attended by about 7,000 people.

Bush first aged the monarch by 200 years by starting to say she came to the US in 1776.

"You helped our nation to celebrate its bicentennial in 17... 1976", he said.

As the crowd started laughing, he paused, turned to the Queen and winked at her.

Only then he realised, that wasn't a good move: "You gave me a look that only a mother could give a child", he commented.
