Still smirking after all these years...

Yesterday, on the day President George Bush turned 60, a White House spokeman at the daily press conference explained the reasons for his youthful appearance. Ivan Largemouth, assistant press secretary to the president cited various scientific and pyschological reasons:

1. A stress free job, as a result of excessive delegation and frequent holidays.
2. Smiling exercises the facial muscles more, thereby reducing the effects of ageing. The constant presidential smirk alone has taken 10 years off his face, according to scientists.
3. An optimistic outlook. Largemouth cited the presidental view that US troops would be out of Iraq before the turn of the next century as proof of this.
4. The presidential organs have been pickled since his hard drinking days (up to the age of 40, and before even he thought he could buy his way into the oval office).
5. Being young at heart. The president prides himself on being young on the inside. Some commentators feel the president has the mentality of a 15 year old.......chimp.
