He became chummy with obama? Isn't that just peachy. Guess it would be too much to hope that was just diplomatic 'optics'. I hate that new term. I think even the obama people coined. I have to quit using it! I vow right here and now to stop using any words dreamed up by those mind-control dictator worshipers. The Princess Margaret's stuff you mentioned makes me admire her. All of it. And speaking of smoking, as a side note, Heck, I have even thought about taking up smoking myself just to rebel against all of this PC craziness.

“Love” is used many ways these days. But Christian love, as Jesus exemplified, and commanded of his followers, is a selfless love, one in which one would give his life for another. It is an unconditional love that requires one to care for another without any conditions. To love as Jesus commands does not mean you have to like someone, but nevertheless be there for that person just because he/she is. It is impossible for humans but is something, as Christians, we to seek.

LOL, smoking, even to get back at the crazies, isn’t worth it. I quit in ‘86 and never looked back. The person behind me at the checkout yesterday was a smoker and reeked of that telltale tobacco odor. Not a pleasant smell.

Poor Princess Margret forced into a loveless marriage and finally divorced. Not a very happy life for that poor lady.

Does seem like that in some ways.

Harry seems to be a sincere and messed up outlier. His activities with the Invictus Games are impressive. Mehan's a nearly over-the-hill minor actress. She auditioned for and got the role of a lifetime. She'll have kids, if she's smart, and always have a faithful bodyguard with her. I'm thinking Will and the three kids don't travel much together. If anything happened to all four of them the throne would go to Harry. Their #3 does seem to be an insurance child.

QE2 is no fool. No one on the planet has ruled for as long as she has. And she's navigated a lot of scandal and difficult world events.

Much of the ceremony was put together for the sole purpose of reminding everyone Megan is black. Black gospel choir didn’t make sense because Megan was supposedly Catholic. They spotlighted a black cellist and kept zooming in on the black kid in the choir. A bunch of other left wing crap as well. Libs just can’t themselves, they’re mental.

As a prince, you would think he could afford a razor and shave before his wedding. He looked like a bum in a fancy uniform.

Yes, Harry served admirably in Afghanistan piloting an Apache. The royals always serve, usually only as figureheads. Harry was actually in the fight.

I am sure there were people attending my wedding who thought it was too Catholic for my Congregationist upbringing.

Who cares? I didn’t.

It’s their wedding. As long as they are happy, who cares?

People who criticize this stuff always strike me as arrogant and shallow.

Whut?

In Henry’s defense, he didn’t divorce all of his wives.

Totally classless brood. Loved the pregnant one sitting behind the Queen with the husband playing around with her knee. You could tell the American priest was going on too long when the royals shared the “WTF look” and eye-rolling between themselves and some obviously snickered so cameras quickly left them. I think that even the bride and groom were surprised at the length. Too bad Obama’s weren’t there to give them greetings from Rev. Wright and a Muslim blessing.

Probably a flip of the coin: tails - divorce, heads-yours

I didn’t even watch a minute of it. I did see a photo of the bride and I thought she looked lovely and very proper which was a surprise.

I have no idea why they thought a black preacher tossing fire and brimstone would be acceptable? It obviously was a thumb in the eye of the Brits and a declaration that Meghan is not going to be a proper English princess but a ghetto American princess. It should make for some very interesting 4th of July barbecue conversation...oh wait...

Yes, the Obamas and the Windsors have a very special relationship, more special that we know.

I didn’t watch the wedding. Don’t care enough to. lol I was interested in seeing the fashion etc. It did seem that Meghan’s side was celebrity oriented. Seeing Oprah and Clooneys made me go “blech”.
However, I will give Meghan’s mother lots of credit. She dressed nicely, and looked lovely. Her love for her daughter showed but she did not make any scene. I was just impressed with her. She was alone, in a foreign country, watching her daughter marry, in the midst of pomp and circumstance far beyond her experience. The only photo that seemed “real” to me was one of her, sitting in the pew, looking intently and happy.
Meghan and Harry are a couple of liberal do-gooders. I imagine they will fade from the limelight quickly now that this is over. I hope so, anyway. Maybe, if she gets pregnant, there will be some interest. shrug

Your generation is showing. He looked fine and very handsome.
