This guy and his family are the ultimate "welfare" bums of the world...

I'd probably have trouble scheduling a visit with George and I have no doubt that my opinions would be more valid to the White House than some guy who does nothing for a living except spend other people's money...

Now wait just a cotton-pickin' minute. Charles is not that bad. The Royals aren't that bad. They are the most famous figurehead monarchs in the world and they earn their keep. The cost about 400 million pounds a year but they bring in BILLIONS in tourism. The recent 50th anniversary jubilee ought to clue people in that the Brits still love their Queen and who are wwe to say different?

I was told by someone in a position to know that Charles was awesome after the death of Diana in making the arrangements and tending to the details. That he displayed a great deal of integrity and care. Don't believe everything you read in the tabloids.

I agree he should stay away, unfortunately, given his position on the war but note that the article states that he is not publicly arguing against it. To me, that shows a lot more integrity than the liberal socialists here would show. Our little commies would say "to hell with the monarchy, to hell with the constitution, full steam ahead".

</rant) Just thought this thread needed a little balance.
