The prince couldn't manage his family, but everyone should still listen to this little fellow because he flew a helicopter in the Falklands, and Fergie wrote a book about a little helicopter. Has Britain made no mistakes in Afghanistan or Iraq as a result of this experience? I think not.

Is it part of this experienced strategic insight to criticize a country before beginning a visit to promote British interests? The Americans don't think Rumsfeld planned effectively for Iraq either. They hardly need a 'royal' to point that out for them. Please keep your pomposity in your knickers.

We wouldn't be having this conversation if we'd just get off our duffs and abolish the electoral vote! The popular vote kicked Bush out of office, but the electoral vote kept him in power. Isn't democracy about the popular vote anyway? Of course it is! But look what our forefathers' hypocritical perversion of democracy has done to our country, by keeping that in-bred little hick to make stupid choices for us. Mickey Mouse would be a better president. Bush really should have listened to everybody else. But then again, he doesn't listen to anybody, and vetoes everything put in front of him (unless he's the one who came up with the idea of course) Okay, I'm done now. I feel much better.
