So now all I have to do to be knighted is be an alcoholic, drown my secretary, and interfere with the rape investigation on my nephew. My how the empire has fallen.

I wonder what Arthur would have done about knighthoods being tossed around like candy.

Alot of Brits have to question this. Gordon Brown probably sat there in shock as Obama requested this favor...and had to pull every single trick in the book to get the queen to agree to this. She likely pulled a dozen problems and insisted Gordon fix them before agreeing to any of this. The curious thing is that Ted is in pretty bad shape, and very likely unable to make a 8-hr flight to the UK to do this ceremony...and based on press info...he’ll be lucky to make it to June.

I thought the Brits thought more highly of their traditions.

Who’s next? Sir Blago?
