When Harry was asked about refusing the invitation, his reply was: "It's not my thing."
The reality, of course, is different. Great Britain and the entire British Commonwealth of Nations are staunch and avid Allies with the USA in the 'Global War on Terror', a phrase that has become 'verboten' in the dimocRAT lexicon.
The 'War' is actually going well (as well as wars can go), and success in the prosecution of that war spells doom for the dimocRAT party in the 2008 elections.
Harry cannot allow himself to be seen as encouraging the fight in the war, and he's staying away so he isn't seen with losers.
The dimocRATS have wagered a huge amount of Political Capital on losing this 'War-on-Terror' during the Bush Administration so-as to gain the Presidency and super-majorities in the House and Senate in 2008. They've got a huge surprise coming .................. FRegards
Done in a heavy British accent: By God Man, You've Got it!!
Always good to see ya mate.
