Could these be the "most" Interesting Times so far?

Joe,

Don't worry about it. Your theses that Parliament was secretly dissolved and the Queen rules as a despot does not pass the smell test of the sources you cite as references to back it up...the public press. Nor any other test. Get back to me on my question about the last time the Royals dissolved Parliament please. The question you ducked earlier before you got caught up in how many traffic and banking laws the Prince is consulted on.

All this is off topic by the way. It's deserves it's own thread. Next to the one on the powers of the King of Sweden.

Your rebuttals have been Ad hoc, strawman and off topic.


We will never be like the Brits (topic). Feel free to go to England and bow in submission if you wish to believe there is no harm in their power. We wont' allow that here.

That's true.

Feel free to go to England and bow in submission if you wish to believe there is no harm in their power.

I don't care to bow and I do believe that there is harm in the monarchy of England. I just have no illusions that the Queen Mum is behind it all. The people of England have a long history of fighting their own rulers in defense of their rights. From the Glorious Revolution to the People's Charter and on. (We inherited a good deal of the benefit of that. But you have denied all that.) They English still fight today. They just have not been so good at it the last few decades. But then neither have we. Misleadership and lack of it when needed.

We wont' allow that here.

I don't know who this "we" is that you're speaking of. For a few decades now fellas from both political parties have been working hard to disassemble our rights here in the U.S. Like in the UK mostly in the name of fighting crime, or terrorism, or defending borders, or making a budget, etc.

We are in a good position to fight that though. Mostly because of all the fighting that has occurred in the U.S. since the Revolution and the Bill of Rights was adopted.
