OT: Queen Elizabeth has died

That's millions of people. I'm not sure why you're so defensive for the queen of another country.
I'm not so sure why you hated her to make shit up. The large majority over there support the monarchy. Your many isn't that many of those that do. Funny your so hell bent to try to prove you weren't wrong, about a country that isn't your country. And yet you go ahead and try to prove that many equals the vast minority. You aren't very good at percentages

He's a flake - had a recording leaked of him telling Camilla Parker he wanted to be her "Tampax." Nobody would want to be Camilla's mirror nevermind her Tampax.

Alas Charles is a climate change dunce which should play well as Europe circles the drain of history

I'll miss Elizabeth II. Just a few years back she was in NYC laying a wreath at WTC site in 103F heat




WTF is your post?

She met with 13 Presidents.

Since Pelosi's father was the Mayor of Baltimore in the 50's and 60's-and likely stayed influential in the party-she may have met Truman and Ike,then the rest of them.If Trump returns,would he count twice to give her 14?

Lol you're quibbling over what percent counts as "many." I'll let you decide that one.

Quibbling? You totally misread my post. I was trying to be nice. Your first post was dumb as shit. Then trying to act smart you double down on your low IQ.
 
The world, whether referring to humans or animals, plants or bacteria, never was and never will be about an idealistic notion of equality. The strong and/or dedicated rise to the top and try to stay there (see Alabama football). The Brits have their royals, we have Mrs. Screw (tiara included), and I hope we continue to keep programs like Temple and UConn below us, while those above us give us something to shoot for.

You shouldn't encourage her.

I remember seeing "Young Queen" and "Old Queen" on two different series of currency notes on my honeymoon. She had ruled for so long, her portrait on the money had to be updated.
 
Fascinating life for sure. When I heard this, the first thing that came to my mind is she was Queen for more than 45 years after the Sex Pistols released "God Save The Queen".

speaking of which, let’s hear from Johnny Rotten himself on the Queen.
The Queen is dead, long live the King!

Pretty simple

Charles runs filthy in private

He's a climate ninnie and they are on the verge of causing a global catastrophe - green genocide.
The genius Germans shut their power sources to "save the planet" and now the gov told the people they will have no fuel for heat this winter. Other countries are also strapped for fuel. They followed the dunces into Ukraine sanctions that have backfired

The Ukraine war that should be over (but US keeping it going) will damage wheat supplies more than they had to be.
The ninnies also took away/got rid of fertilizers - that's how Sri Lanka fell into economic disarray and famine
The WTF dummy running Holland wanted to take fertilizer away from Dutch farmers even as famines loom
The biggest WTF dummy of all (Trudeau) than wants to add to the green fertilizer menace
You should see it coming but since you don't you better start stacking some tuna - or better yet dont

Here's help catching-up

She was really the last major player of the British Empire
Her first 21 years or so India was still under the crown

I’m rising to level status with her, and from my perch I see myriad onlookers straining to get a glimpse of her. OTOH she has Prince Nappy Boy to explain to everyone, so there’s that.
 
Elizabeth oversaw remarkable changes in the British Empire, as it evolved into a Commonwealth.

It took Charles a long time to grow into the role, but he is actually pretty well-suited to be King at this point, and Camilla has turned out to be a decent person who will make a good Queen Consort.

I would guess he will stay in the role for 5-10 years, and will streamline the position and reduce the pageantry, which will be a loss for fun TV events, but probably for the best. He's done a lot of good work as the Prince of Wales.

The Queen was pretty amazing, but really might have better abdicated about 10-15 years ago.

Please do not interact with me in the future.
 
My parents 2nd generation Irish Catholic Americans never talked about the IRA at all. Long after they both passed I asked my dad's cousin why. He said look into the IRA record during WWII. Nobody talks about it. Some crazy shit.

These are things we should understand. The IRA tried to align with Germany during WWII. I'm also fascinated b by the Irish experience. The were neutral throughout WWII and have never joined NATO.

This is an especially odd rant in this thread. I never cease to be boggled by the extremely fringe right-wingers on this site.

My eldest son and his wife just happen to be in the UK right now on vacation. Interested to hear what he has to say about things over there.
Hey Colbert, let us know what you hear.

Down here in NZ, pretty much positive, sympathetic reaction. You can not like the idea of monarchy and still have liked the Queen.

For me it is this simple. The Queen was the Only Queen that has been present during my entire life. Her reign was like a constant that did not change, there was a weird comfort in that. In this ever changing world her reign was like an anchor for the world, and she managed her gilded cage pretty well for 70+ years which is remarkable in itself. RIP Queen Elizabeth.

Just watch Peaky Blinders season 5 and 6. They cover it all.
 
Always thought the whole Hanover line was a ridiculous testament to anti-catholic religious bigotry. They actually went to Germany to find protestant relatives to "inherit" the English throne. And that's who the current royal family really is.

I say just give the crown back to the Yorkist line... and that would be this guy with the ball cap.

The 15th Earl of Loudoun, Simon Abney-Hastings visited Loudoun Co today. He is pictured with Chairman Scott York.

That dude with the cap= inbreeding has consequences.
 
RIP but she has a pretty tainted history involving lots of groups from other regions (Ireland, Scotland, South Africa etc.)

Camilla is pretty popular with UK citizens now. The Queen should have let Charles marry her to begin with. Camilla was always the one that may him happy.

Wasn’t Camilla already married at the time?
 
I don’t want to sound like a dick because the woman just died, but in a day and age when the world is all about equality how is it that anyone is still considered “royal”? Why does anyone care about the “royal family”? The mere fact that someone still wants to be referred to by a royal title is insulting to all of us peasants.
Bread and circuses.

I think Charles and Camilla became an item prior to either marriage. Once the Queen say no, they married other people but obviously still hooked up from time to time.
