To: Verginius Rufus

UNLESS of course, your post referred to HMS Pinafore’s ‘Ruler of the Queen’s Navy’ and not to the current Lord High Admiral.

If that is the case Verginius Rufus you have my unreserved apologies, and my post can stand, not as a reply to you, (hey, anyone familiar with the work of Gilbert and Sullivan deserves a respectful tip of the hat, if anything) but as a riposte to those on the thread who are, with little or no basis in fact, attacking a man’s career and reputation.

I didn’t intend to be obscure—I was comparing the character in the Gilbert & Sullivan song to BHO. There are remarkably few similarities between Prince Philip and Obama, other than the most banal ones (they’re both males, speak English, are married, etc.).
