Has John Heilemann ever gotten this riled up over the commies ruling Cuba? If so, I missed it. But on his Bloomberg TV show tonight, Heilemann got on his populist high horse to blast the British monarchy on the occasion of the visit to the US of Prince William and Princess Kate, mocking them as "undereducated" and calling for the British monarchy to be "done away with tomorrow."
In Heilemann's view, the real "royalty" on view at the Brooklyn Nets game tonight will be Beyoncé, Jay-Z and Lebron James.

You know I have no idea what the infatuation with the royals is all about, but I do know one thing the only thing Beyoncé, Jay-Z, Lebron have in common with the word royal is pain and the only thing they share with class is ass. Rich low lifes are still low lifes, no matter how much lipstick or silk you put on a pig it still wallows in a sty.

Getting rid of the royals is long overdue, but not his idiotic alternatives.

I’m totally surprised Bloomberg’s Tard TV didn’t name Barry and Moochelle our royalty. Probably dared not to say it as it would have hit too close to the truth and stirred up unwanted negative attention. They’re just jealous, anyways, their king and queen couldn’t be made good looking as our visitors with a pound of magic dust and endless wishes from an unbottled genie!

Royalty? I really have no idea who Beyoncé, Jay-Z and Lebron are. Rappers? Singers?

I'm not a fan of the "Royal family" either, and I'm sure they cost an arm and a leg to maintain in their accustomed style. I understand the queen has an ice-cube manager, who...Manages her ice cubes. Makes sure only the most perfectly cubic ice cubes make their way into her royal Jameson and Ginger, or whatever it is she slurps for free.
But whatever the hell a Jay-Z is, it's not royalty.

Rappers, if I’m not mistaken.

I kind of figured. I know who George Strait and Alan Jackson are, but wasn’t sure about those rapper names. I thought LeBron was a British soccer player.

I cannot understand how Americans can get excited over a bunch of welfare clients. The poor British public is supporting three, going on four, generations of elite on the public dole. Most of the time they don’t even have jobs but go around the world begging for money for their personal hobby causes but not laying out a nickel of their own.

That’s right, never mind the ancient traditions of Western civilization-—bring on the ghetto influence!
That’s the world we live in.
