So do I. That's why I purchase winter clothes for the winter. Where was Charles during this big event?

Prince Charles was also a horses ass towards President Bush and our war on Islamic terror.
Great. A man who shows ever sign of being a Muslim convert to become King of Britain.
“I do so hope that you, as people who operate in the very modern world of business and finance, will use your influence to....promote the important principle of wholeness which Islam can still teach us in the West.”-Prince Charles
I do not think Charles is necessarily being passes over. I think the analogy of Victoria’s son Edward VII is what Her Majesty is thinking. Like Charles will be advanced, Edward was around 60 when he assumed the throne lived for only another 8 years. I think Her Majesty is already thinking about stepping up William’s “training” a notch since there is a strong possibility that Charles will have a relatively short reign.
Oh sorry. Wasn’t paying close attention. Yes, the Edward of Victorian times. Completely different era. Lillie Langtry was one of his more notable mistresses. He was quite the cad. LOL.
If memory serves, I think Camilla’s great grandmother was one of his mistresses.
From what I hear...Charles is a Muslim sympathizer and notoriously “green”, that is, he is a supporter of the global-warming hoax.
Besides the whole Camilla thing.
I’d much, MUCH rather see William as King.
Prince Charles is but another fraud who jets around the world with his entourage, leaving a huge carbon footprint, while exhorting others to cut back.
Given the U.K’s financial problems, I question how much longer it can afford the useless royals. If you need someone to officiate at the opening of a new supermarket, use Miss England or one of the Page 3 girls. They’re far less expensive and far more presentable.
Is it not possible that Charles is in agreement
I get confused too. I think you are right and if my memory is right Camila used that as a pick up line with Charles. :)

Thank you for posting this. What you say makes sense. It is no surprise that the Queen and Prince Philip (who I think has looked frail lately) would be cutting back their duties and that Prince William should step up and take on more responsibilities. I think people who see this as a dig at the Prince of Wales see everything as a dig at the Prince of Wales because they don’t like him. Regardless of what his detractors think, he is the heir to the throne and the Queen is unlikely do to anything to undermine him. I have always thought he was a very interesting man, even when I disagree with some of his enthusiasms. That said, I think he is right on target about architecture and the fantastic gardens he has created would have earned anyone else the admiration of the country. The resentment that people feel for that well intentioned man is unfathomable.
I got a better idea. If you are an American as I am how about we stay out of other countries affairs?
I suppose replace the monarchy as other parliamentary democracies with a President nobody outside the country knows and most likely the countries own citizens do not care about.
SEE POST 26.
Yes, yes, I think you’re right about that! Clever line.
Poor Charlie! He can’t get the job until his Mom dies. I wouldn’t wish that on anyone.
What you say may well be true, but the fact of the matter is that Prince Charles cannot command the level of respect that his mother does, or that his sons have the potential to.
As soon as he becomes King, every dominion except Britain itself will become a republic, and in Britain itself, I suspect republican sentiment will form the majority opinion and only apathy will keep the monarchy in place...
In the old days, kings could have as many mistresses as they liked and no one made a big deal about it. Princess Diana was a descendant of one of King Charles II's illegitimate children. Charles II's legal wife was a direct descendant of one of the illegitimate children of Pope Alexander VI.
Apparently there is a lineage society whose membership is restricted to those who can prove their descent from one of the illegitimate children of a king of England--popularly known as the Royal Bastards Society, although the official name is fancier.
“Charles was allowed to marry the divorced Camilla Parker-Bowles.”
Yes, but Mum interfered in the relationship. I always thought it was wonderful that he truly loved her. It wasn’t just a fling. He got stuck with Diana. Things would’ve been better if he’d been allowed to stay with Camilla from the beginning.
Crown William and make Charles the Sheikh of Araby. Camilla will look stunning in a burqa.
Appreciate your comments on this subject.
Agree as stated, this is not a slam against Charles but the Queen thinking long term.
Also good that William receives much of his instructions
from the Queen as it instills not just the general duties
but the history and purose.
Thanks agains for the article and your comments.
