I love Prince Charles. My wife hates him, which is why I’m expressing my point of view while she is out taking my daughter to Karate lessons and I am suppose to be mowing the lawn.
I suppose Charles has not mowed any lawns of late, and I hold no grudge for that. Personally, I love mowing and gardening (I’ve heard tell the Prince also loves to get into the garden), but this was my chance to take a peek at some of the CNN coverage of the wedding. I think I should get right to the point, for those who try to poke fun at “the looks” of Camilla Parker Bowles, I say it’s envy and I say she is one fine looking lady for any woman of her same age, and she is personable and I don’t care what her “background” is or was, she carries a royal decorum of a mannered and elegant female – I congratulate the Prince on such a fine choice. For those of my conservative brothers who criticize the Prince in such vulgar manner to point out his ears, I should only point out President Bush’s ears, or face for that manner, in conjunction with “What Me Worry?” and remind those that as many and much more say the Prince is a handsome man and I would agree. By the way, I am a conservative, a nationalist, but not a Bushie, yet I want to assure that I find my President is also a handsome man and a moral man.
The royalty is in a sense also the head of the church, and the medieval moralists have warned us against envy as one of the seven deadly sins. We hear a lot of sins lately, and of the need to confess sins to consummate this marriage – but let me speak on one of the seven deadly sins called envy.
For those of you who are envious of the Prince, of this wedding, and his Lady, I say that your envy is sin, and it is not enough to avoid envy but you must learn to appreciate other’s achievements and rejoice in their success and good fortune. I rejoice in the achievements of this Prince, and in his good fortune, I feel this marriage of love will bring him good times to the end.
Opps! My wife is back! I’ve got to go …
So, the end to all this Prince bashing.
The wedding is Swan Lake, not only as theatre but in goodness and elegance. Prince Charles, I wish you good joy on this day, congratulations on your marriage to such a Lady, and best wishes from America! I know you’re actually of French blood, but I don’t hold that against you, and I always admired a good Norman.
We can't tell our heart who to love. Your head tells you one thing and your heart another. What is it we are told...follow your heart.
Bashing aside, i'm sick of hearing about the "royal family" PERIOD! And I'm DOUBLE sick of seeing those ugly pusses on TV all the time. It just goes to show what happens with all that in-breeding, living on an island!
Sorry, that was meant for you. This thing just about refuses to post right today.
I agree. I am really surprised and somewhat shocked by the level of animosity. He's marrying the woman he loves, the woman he should have married 30 years ago. I wish them love and happiness.
Up the rebels Down the British!

I began to dislike him the day he got up and made a speech on sparing the rod and spoiling the child. This from a man who sent his kids off to boarding school when they turned 6. You wanna preach to me, preach about something you know, like polo.
oops. Forgot to add the (/sarcasm) at the end, for you Brits out there with no sense of humor!
Up the rebels Down the British!
Hear, hear!
I hate to think negatively of Charles, but everytime I think of him I'm reminded of the SNL skit in which the actor portraying him is wearing a tampon costume. Apparently, he made some reference to wanting to be Camilla's tampon several years ago. After that, he's just never been the same in my mind....
He should have never married Diana in the first place. Diana did more harm than good. (Flame retardant on)
E.D. was just plain catty and mean.
No one made fun of the white gown she wore to her church wedding to husband number three (or was it number four?)
Fox News was third rate this morning.
E. D. is a real handful for any man ....
LOL! I guess we know who wears the pants...
If their story was a book, it would be a best seller, and everyone would say, ahhh true love found a way. I hope they are very happy.
She's not too bright, either. if you really watch her on "Fox & Friends", you will notice she gets her lines in her earphone from a producer off stage. Out of nowhere she comes up with some profound comment you just know didn't come out of that brain.
I think Diana loved Charles in the beginning, and I feel sorry for her. She would probably be alive today if he had loved her in return.
Someone got badly hurt (and dead) in that whole mess, and it wasn't Charles.
