It's Good to Be the King...

So it's perfectly acceptable if the president breaks wind in the Oval Office.

A top insider let that slip when explaining why President Bush is paranoid around women, always worried about his behavior. But he's still a funny, earthy guy who, for example, can't get enough of fart jokes. He's also known to cut a few for laughs, especially when greeting new young aides, but forget about getting people to gas about that.

I was unaware that Mel Brooks had joined the Bush administration.
