The full story.
The good part: Bush noted the Queen's long history of dealing with successive American governments, just barely stopping himself before dating her to 1776, the year the 13 colonies declared their independence from Britain. "The American people are proud to welcome your majesty back to the United States, a nation you've come to know very well. After all you've dined with 10 U.S. presidents. You've helped our nation celebrate its bicentennial in 17 -- in 1976," Bush said. Bush looked at the Queen sheepishly. She peered back at him from beneath her black and white hat. "She gave me a look that only a mother could give a child," Bush said as the crowd burst into laughter.
I'm making a thread of this for two reasons: A) It's not often I'm impressed with the quick wit of George W Bush. B) I couldn't resist posting this photo:

Poor Bush and his tendency to mangle, he was of course thinking of the Queen's Mum who passed away a few years ago.

Why pick on that poor girl ? No need to be rude to a contestant. The Mexicans should show any hard feelings for the US by not leaving Mexico in droves for the border. That would teach 'em.

when she gets asked the question about reliving a moment in her life I bet she's thinking about the time some outlaw biker gave her six orgasms in a single session not about the time she was helping poor kids in africa and shit
