I believe our forefathers fought a war so that I wouldn’t have to congratulate the queen on her diamond jubilee.

I was “over there” in ‘77 and there was a big “to do” then for her 25th. Incorporated with the Padstow festival, fish and chips and Hicks Special Draught, it was a great time.

Well, the Queen was gracious enough to visit the United States during our nation’s bicentennial, and wishing her well does not mean we want to revert to monarchical rule.

All the MSM networks are planning the whole of next week to babble and carry on about the anniversary. Nothing is more important than a week on the subject. It is really hard to believe that the MSM Pimps and Prostitutes for the Food Stamp President’s re-election actually get paid those gigantic salaries for little more than shilling and distraction.

The British fascination with dictatorship is mysterious..
They take pride in Mob Rule whether by Royalty or Democracy..
BOTH are Mob rule.. just different Mobs.. and mobsters..

America has pretty much been brain washed to think democracy is NOT A FILTHY THING..
Almost ..holy.. democracy has become..

Democracy Was, Is, and will Remain... Mob Rule by mobsters..
Democrats are delusional.. and not all republicans are republicans..

Oh, I wasn’t serious. Somebody I know said that to me with perfect gravity and I considered it humorous enough to repeat. I suppose a /sarc tag was in order but I forgot to add it.

Considering the Dictator we have now, given an either/or proposition, I’ll take the Queen. But then again, no one is forcing anyone to wish her well.

I mean, she stands for something positive. Can’t wish that well in today’s world, can we.

“Big Ben” has been re-named “Elizabeth Tower.”

How arrogant can you get, Elizabeth?

I’m still not over their chest beating display with Diana kicked the bucket. It was pitiful.

Let’s also remember that Her Majesty is a member of the generation that gave Britain its “finest hour” during World War II.

We WERE a Republic, until the 17th Ammendment. It's not so clear now.

I don’t have anything against the Royal Family, but they should be unsalaried. They should have to work like the rest of us to maintain their digs.

Yes, and I’m sick of it already. The only thing faintly satisfying is that BHO must despise it since he hates the British just as he does America, viewing us all as colonial imperialists.
