George Bush met The Queen, and he turns round and says: "As I'm the
President, I'm thinking of changing how the country is referred to, and
I'm thinking that it should be a Kingdom"

The Queen replies "I'm sorry Mr Bush, but to be a Kingdom, you have to
have a King in charge - and you're not a King."

George Bush thought a while and then said: "How about a Principality
then?",

To which the Queen replied "Again, to be a Principality you have to be a
Prince - and you're not a Prince, Mr Bush".

Bush thought long and hard and came up with "How about an Empire then?"

The Queen, getting a little annoyed by now, replies "Sorry again, Mr Bush,
but to be an Empire you must have an Emperor in charge - and you are not
an Emperor."

Before George Bush could utter another word, The Queen said: "I think
you're doing quite nicely as a Country".

I keep telling it to people and they don't get it. And, when they don't, it's a bit embarrasing to explain.

OK - I'll admit it. I don't get it - care to explain?

If a Kingdom needs a King
A Principality needs a prince
and an empire needs an emperor
What does a country need?

It ain't count. Think of how "country" sounds, not how it's spelled.
