When I’m 86, I’d like to look so distinguished with a mushroom on my head ...

The queen was well taught by her parents.

She is, perhaps, the only thing left in UK worth admiring.

God bless her!

Unlike many today, she learned the importance of duty when she was very young.

It must be a heavy burden to have such a dud for a son!

I just heard that Prince Phillip is in the hospital. Does anyone know the details? Quite surprising that Camilla is seated next to the Queen. I wonder if she is now liked than her own weenie son!

Her uncle abdicated the throne.

Coming into the role from that perspective, and coming into it young yet old enough to understand what went on that brought her to it, must have made an enormous impact on her.

She is the exact opposite of her uncle’s “thinking only of myself and what I want” attitude.

What else to explain why she wore THAT hat?

Must have been something about it she thought the occasion called for.

UGH.

My only other comment when I think of her - it’s really too bad how her kids turned out...

I can’t help but laugh.

A Queen? Really? What makes her so special?

Why do the British people, think that she has right to rule over them? The whole concept of monarchy should have been expunged centuries ago.

BTW- British Parliament draws its authority from a grant from the queen, unlike the US government which draws its authority from the consent of the governed with powers delegated to the government from the people.

...except raise decent children. She’s a regal failure in primary duty.
