"Prince" Charles of Windsor - officially a POS asshole!
http://uk.news.yahoo.com/041118/17/f6ul5.html

Prince's blast at people who get above their station

"People think they can all be pop stars, high court judges, brilliant TV personalities or infinitely more competent heads of state without ever putting in the necessary work or having natural ability. This is the result of social utopianism which believes humanity can be genetically and socially engineered to contradict the lessons of history." - Prince Charles


Wow, Chuck talks as though he, or anyone else in his worthless inbred part-German family actually EARNED their station in life.

Hey, Chuck, STFU!

2. He never did have a firm grasp on reality
He harps on about British architecture and real ale and really important stuff like that.

6. I love the brits but I DESPISE the attitudes of the aristocracy.
Edited on Thu Nov-18-04 01:35 PM by UdoKier
The very notion that there is such a thing as the "House of Lords" is so preposterous. It flies in the face of everything that is so supposedly progressive about Great Britain.

Any brits in the house?

Please - it's 2004. FIRE all the royals and nobles, STRIP them of their phony-baloney titles, CONFISCATE their palaces for the state and let them live in row houses like normal people. Change their appearance, like a witness relocation program, but GET RID OF THEM. They are leeches.

9. Many of us despise them too
and you're absolutely right. A bunch of inbred, half-witted, whining spongers. If they all vanished tomorrow it would make absolutely no difference to anything (except for those sad people who need to feel inferior to someone).
We could always send them over there - their accents might be amusing for a while, and most of them would make Bush seem positively genius-like.

10. The characters on "The Young Ones" make Bush look smart
And Patsy and Edina of "AbFab" had much better moral compasses.

(But I doubt they could outdrink or outdrug him...)

Tony "Blur"?

My pal from Manchester when we were expats in Japan called him that. Funny guy.

15. They're good for tourism...not much else, though.
Also, I'm still in shock about you managing to squeeze "progressive" and "Great Britain" into the same sentance without your computer exploding.

There is nothing, repeat"nothing" progressive about British culture. It's a caste system of the highest order, with a blatently uninformative press (worse than Faux), and anti-democratic system of government, the House of Lords being the perfect example of this elitist and oligarchic institution.

The RF own half the land in the country. much of the property you could potentially buy in the UK is leasehold, and the House of Windsor continued to own the land.

These people have run the nation and the Empire it once was, into the ground for their own gain for the last 500 years or so, because, get this, God said they should. Everything that has ever been done by the government of Great Britain has been done soleley to benefit the Royal Family, and their cronies. Meanwhile the lower classes are kept in positions of indentured servitude by enforced poverty (taxes), and promises of heaven and fear of hell.

Depose the Royals. Take their land. Put their heads on stakes.

Replace them with look-alikes, so the tourists and Paris Match readers will still have something to get excited about.

This coming from a (still) British Subject, living in Canada.

16. Supposedly the UK is ahead of us...
in transit infrastructure, racial harmony and helping the poor.

AND the vast majority have had the sense to oppose this war.

But I know it's no utopia.

20. The vast majority of Americans opposed it, too.
London has an excellent transit system, and British Rail is an effective (but expensive) way of getting from city to city, but London is only one city in England.

Racial harmony.... hmmm....

19. The Guardian is great...
But there are also excellent news sources in the US.

The mainstream British media is the worst form of tabloid sensationalism I've ever seen. It's non-news. It's distraction. It's worse than USAToday, but at least there's tits in it.

8. It's not on the Globe and Mail website
but I get the Globe on my doorstep every morning. They had an interesting take.

They used the quote:

"This is the result of social utopianism which believes humanity can be genetically and socially engineered to contradict the lessons of history."

Then added:
"the gentically engineered Prince...."

14. Not that I have any love for upstart commentators and no-talent pop stars-
... but the bits about "natural ability", "PC" and "social engineering" smack of the haughty elitism of the aristocracy that I can't stand. And that goes for US de facto aristocracy like Bush as well.

"lessons of history"? The lessons of history is that "noblemen" like himself have lied, stolen and plundered almost every chance they get. Wise, benevolent monarchs are all the more notable because they are so RARE.

22. Did you ever see that (long deleted) site on Philip's alleged castration?
It was part of some guy's conspiracy site, and his seriousness about it made it all the more enjoyable...

The short version:

The Knights Templar are the descendants of Jesus Christ. It is their destiny to occupy the seats of Royalty throughout Europe.

Prince Philip was arrested for war crimes by the Germans during WW2, for allegedly murdering a group of fifty Macedonian POWs with a machine gun.

It was derermined by the Knights of Templar that he was not one of their own, because no true Knight would commit such an attrocity.

It had already been arranged that he was to marry Princess Elizabeth and sire the heirs to the British Crown, and obviously he was not the man for the job. But appearances had to be maintained, and the marriage was given the go-ahead.

Okay... hang on for this next part.

To ensure that he would not spread his seed, a secret ceremony was organised in a Bavarian castle. Two hundered elite members of aristocracy within the SS, as well as King George, the Queen mother, the King of Greece, and other members of the House of Windsor were invited to witness the ceremony, in which Adolph Hitler himself castrated Philip with a set of solid gold snips, and held the testicles high in the air, to the cheers of the crowd.

Elizabeth has since been fertilised with the sperm of another man, who's identity is not known to the public, but who has demonstrated powers and knowledge exclusive to the Knights Templar.

:tinfoilhat: :crazy:

25. I'm sure if I'd continued reading...
there would have been all kinds of 'disclosure' on secret plastic surgery on Philip...

24. Now, I'm going to take issue with his one sentence,
"...humanity can be genetically and socially engineered to contradict the lessons of history".

What on earth does he mean here? He seems to feel that humanity is being tinkered with. And the results are not good. That we are being modified to to contradict the lessons of history".

What lessons? That there should only be 2 strata of society: the have's (The Windsors) and the have-not's (everybody else). Ultra wealthy and ultra poor.

Saxe-Coburg-Gotha inbred cretin. What an embarrassment for his country.
