More significantly, the Prince of Wales, as a navy pilot, flew transport helicopters for the Royal Marine Commandos.

For some reason, American conservatives seem to have swallowed the media garbage about the Prince of Wales hook, line and sinker. They’re smart enough to realise the media lies, but seem to have just accepted the media portrayal of the Prince of Wales.

He’s a friend of mine, and while he is bit eccentric on a few issues, and in my view downright wrong on climate change, overall he’s a conservative patriot who served in country’s military and has dedicated his entire life to serving it in a civil capacity. He’s a good and decent man.

His sons have turned into fine young men as well, and while their mother deserves her share of the credit for that, the fact is, the Prince of Wales was doing just as much to raise them before her tragic death, and wound up having to do it all (albeit with a lot more help available than most single fathers) after that.

Thank you. It’s good to hear a Freeper defending Prince Charles.

I am sure you know him better than most, but he does come across like a bit of a twit, sorry. Just the other day he complimented Mumbai’s slums and found them better organized than most Western towns, as if they should be in our future.

And wanting to be Camilla’s tampon... I know he didn’t say it publicly, but still. Just ugh.

What he did to Diana was dead wrong, as well. There was nothing she did to deserve such treachery. If their marriage was to be a public sham, she should have been in on it from the start too, but apparently she was not.

His sons seem to have turned out fine, though.
