Have they considered holding elections for their monarchy?

More crack journalism:

39% of Brits want William as next king.
39% of Brits want Charles as next king.

Headline: Brits back William as next king.

Am I ever glad George Washington refused to countenance a monarchy here!

Especially since the unofficial media-appointed royal family, the Kennedy's, have made such complete asses of themselves over the years.

Just like the real monarchs across the Pond.

When Saturday Night Live changed Charles into a tampon,
so he could be closer to Camilla, "I said to myself"
"That man will never be King".

The "F" is the dead giveaway.

I never saw the SNL skit, but it was Charles himself who proposed turning himself into a tampon. It was on a surreptitiously taped phone call between him and Camilla.

I don’t remember who taped it or why, but that dweeb actually told her he wanted to be her tampon! Oh, and King of England as well.

What's the point of a poll on this subject? The Monarchy of Britton is not decided by election. There is a clear line of succession. Some folks have no life.

To be honest with you, I'm not sure that I even care. I typically post 8-10 stories a day. They are whatever catches my eye that has not already been posted. I read 10 newspapers a day. I like to see the comments other people have on the stories. I almost always learn something.
