Prince Harry visits Arlington National Cemetery

Why? GWB was born to great wealth, his unearned seat in Yale paid for, his undeserved seat in Harvard paid for, allowed to dodge his military obligation and was hustled through the back door into the White House.



Third rate? You might need to go to Mississippi or Detroit and convince some folks there that they can afford the Bush's.
Just curious- which countries would you call first rate?

that's just plain stupid.

how did he get an "unearned" seat at Harvard

You obviously know little of the history of Yale as well

Bush's acceptance into HBS is far less bogus than say obama's acceptance into the law school

Really? How do you know his seat at Yale was unearned? (His GPA was better than Al Gore's, after all.) How do you know his seat at Harvard was undeserved? He did not dodge his military obligation. Did he not win the 2000 election under the terms of the Constitution?:cool:
 
Its people like apdst that give Americans a bad name, fortunately im married to very sensible and reasonable American so I know better.

They are Goldilocks, always unhappy at every thing.

If Harry had gotten into a drunken stupor and tried to defecate in the middle of Times Square then I think a little criticism may be warranted.

But just going to give honor to the fallen at Arlington does not deserve this kind of pathetic trash talk.

He wasn't just doing it for the PR like our politicians who cry crocodile tears. Harry doesn't need the PR he isn't running for any BS election. He did it because he felt the need to.

Hats off to him.

It's odd how some want to believe the worst about Bush, even when the misconceptions have been proven false, over and over again.

It's also odd, on the other hand, that we are expected to just accept the media's word on BHO's schooling, and his GPA, since he has yet to release those records. :confused:
 
Thanks for sharing that wisdom. Truly inspiring.

Just common sense.

It only counts as wisdom to the brain-starved masses who think that running around in a helicopter in Third World desert at the behest of cosksucking pols has anything at all to do w/serving one's country.

If the spoiled brat wants to serve his country, he needs to pay back all the taxpayer $$ used to subsidize him.

Making one's own way in the world is the first step toward becoming responsible. Once harry reaches that level, he can consider doing something noteworthy.
 
a hall of shame stupid post contender

what causes this level of bitterness?

There won't be much bitterness if the taliban manage to capture the wimp one of these days.

Although the Afghan extremist groups aren't the nicest people on Earth, a Royal hostage is a good way to ensure that their country doesn't become a corporate owned slave-labor powered mining pit that the US and UK want it to be.

Saving one's country from industrial exploitation, FYI, is considered serving your country :)

Nonsense.:cool:

much bitterness I sense in you.
 
Because he would never be taken alive.:cool:

All the Afghan fighters would have to do is put up a big structure that looks like a beer can, then when harry lands his chopper there to get a drink, they can take him.

I think he's making his way in the world just fine. Also think that "running around in the desert" isn't exactly what a "spoiled brat" would be doing and that those in the military are serving their country.

TRANSLATION: British taxpayers are subsidizing his world just fine.

Nope, those in the military serve their gummint, which is usually corrupt an unaccountable to the country.

And wasting public money by joysticking around in a stupid helicopter over a Third World desert mindlessly obeying orders to shoot whatever his gummint considers "combatants" is what military brats do.

The other non-military part of his bratness is his penchant for drinking/getting wasted on taxpayer dime.

If he ever hopes to make anything of his (sorry) life, he first needs to get a life (i. e. make it on his own instead of being a subsidized, submissive bitch for his gummint) and actually fight for freedom, like these dudes. . .

Also, Harry's hot. Don't you think so too?

My bad, lemme rephrase. . .

I agree that crappy Budweisers probably wouldn't tempt him.

That doesn't even make any sense. :3oops:
 
I like Harry because he comes across as a decent honorable “chap” in SPITE of being a Royal. Even some of the mistakes he has made make him more likeable in my eyes.

This, I don't hold much love for him because of that whole Swastika thing a few years ago but, he seems like a decent kid who just made a few mistakes in his youth. Who here can't claim they didn't **** up royally a few times in their teens/20s? I'm still in my 20s and I still manage to screw up badly once every few months.
 
You may be right.

This act may have been classy - but that alone does not make him overall a 'class act'.

In my book, no royal is a 'class act'.

Taking money from the ever-poorer masses - even though your family is already STINKING rich - just to be a bunch of figureheads.


And ole Harr has never to my knowledge EVER in any way stated his objection to this confiscation of the British masses, hard earned money to line the pockets of his billionaire relatives.

Until he does, he is no 'class act' to me...though that does not mean he is incapable of making honorable gestures (as this may have been).


But...this is a thread about honoring war dead...so I will drop it...assuming you will.

Do you think that the royal family is being imposed upon an unwilling British public?

I think they beleive God wants them to be monarchs, and are happy to take advantage of a celebrity worship driven mass public. Which just so happens to make then uniquely unequal to other people.
