Its a tough one for the flamingo's but I guess that's the price of freedom.

The Palace's head gardener, Mark Lane, was reported to be in tears when he saw the scale of the damage.
Awwwww. Did we muss his pwetty hair?

"Royal officials . . . Palace staff . . . Palace insiders . . . "
Notice how none of these quotes are attributed to an identifiable person. I would not be surprised if the entire story was fabricated. The Left was infuriated that Bush presented himself so well over there, so they're going to try to find some way to make him look bad even after he's gone.

After the revolution, she should consider herself lucky, that our President doesn't demand she be presented to him in chains. I would.

Royal officials are now in touch with the Queen's insurers and Prime Minister Tony Blair to find out who will pick up the massive repair bill. How about the people who did it? I have a hard time believing the Queen would be angry with Bush for those hoodlums' behavior. They're HER people after all.

I believe that this article was the Mirror's attempt at satire. The title was called "Farce 1" or something like that.

I know where she can get a lot of plastic flamingos. They won't suffer from post Bush stress syndrome.

This is the only part of the article I believe: The Palace's head gardener, Mark Lane, was reported to be in tears when he saw the scale of the damage.

One: I don't believe it.
Two: If true, it's sheer genius!
Smush a few rosebushes, free a few nations.

A little late with the lame story, and no pictures to let us all make our own judgement. No pictures at Yahoo either using "gardens" and "Bush".

So get over it already.
It will all grow back just like it was.

What a load of fertilizer this article is. As though Elizabeth Regina would show "fury" about anything like this in front of anyone. She has too much class and self-discipline.
You can bet it's some of the palace visqueen garden supervisors who get their pansies in a bunch if some of their pretty pink posies bite the dust.

Has there been ANY verification of this story? I can't find any. If it were true, I suspect it would be all over the net.

So Mark Lane is now the head gardener at the palace? I would have expected him to be back in the US for the media frenzy over the 40th anniversary of the Kennedy assassination, trying to convince another generation that the Warren Commission got it all wrong.

LOL! This is the best thread all week! Flamingo alerts and poor TV reception. But it's only "thought" the roses may be rare and may have been named after royalty? Oh, where FR could go with naming her roses...
Cool, spell check! It's a sad day for the spelling police but the grammar police are still twirling their batons.
