What I would like to know is where will the elite liberals congregate when the planet they are destroying from within turns to crap?

We need to take that from them and force them back into society where they will have to face the people they set out to destroy.

The problem with hereditary monarchy, whether in England or North Korea, is regression to the mean. It takes a real gutsy leader to ascend the greasy pole of monarchy and start a dynasty, but the pampered hereditary princes, whose mothers are generally chosen of the basis of pulchritude rather than any other merits, are seldom up to the task of sustaining the enterprise. With the gradual ascendancy of the Parliament, and now the Commons, over the Government, the Monarch became a figurehead, and has been tolerated as the symbol of England, a totem invoked as an national symbol, little more. One problem for the house of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha (rebranded “Windsor” during the Great War, cousin Nicklaus fared even worse) is that the current generation are not-at-all particularly photogenic, giving rise to calls for the Prince of Wales to abdicate in favor of his more attractive son, whose mother was as photogenic as she was ditzy.

Of course, given the way Americans choose their leaders, and judging by current results, maybe they have the right idea.
