Charles, a man of exceedingly modest ability but fantastically fortunate birth, presumes to lecture those less favored by birth (but almost certainly more favored by ability) on their silly aspirations and foolish hopes for self-improvement.

Here's a man who's had every advantage dropped into his lap throughout his life, but who apparently has never, ever looked into a mirror and asked himself who he really is and how he came to be one of the luckiest (but perhaps least deserving) blokes of all time.

..as long as but a hundred of us remain alive, never will we on any conditions be brought under English rule. It is in truth not for glory, nor riches, nor honors that we are fighting, but for freedom -- for that alone, which no honest man gives up but with life itself
Declaration of Arbroath April 6, 1320

I saw a ceremony on CSPAN last night that featured the Queen in here crown reading some prepared speech that stated the obvious. It was just embarassing to see all the fuss over this woman that does basically nothing.

The Brits should send the Windsors packing. They serve no function. I don't know why Brits. aren't furious that their nation spends millions to feed and house these deadbeats. Aren't there any Brits. on this website that could see about getting them bounced.

Sounds like just another dysfunctional family with no concept of reality.

WHO was the Prince who married a divorced commoner? Can someone name the guy? It's bugging me.
