Bush takes the piss?

BBC NEWS | Queen teases Bush over date gaffe:

"In a speech at a dinner in the US, she said: 'Mr President, I wondered whether I should start this toast saying I was here in 1776 but I don't think I will.'

She was commenting on the president having nearly referred to one of her previous visits being in 1776 not 1976."

1776 eh? Coincidence? I think not.
