Monarchical absolutism is definitely an irritant to parliaments and no doubt James II was a pisser. But the Catholic thing was the main reason they went hunting across the water for his Protestant offspring, even though she was a she, instead of just crowning his son. Toleration would have meant (among other things) not beating the crap out of the Irish all the time, and playing nice with the French and Spanish.
LOL! Yep! I was hoping someone would say that. Very true. Apparently, anyone with any European DNA at all is descended from Charlemagne. We apparently all have a common ancestor as late as about 1400. It's just a matter of finding the branch of the tree, if you're into genealogy.
My favorite part of the Audience was this subtle-but-firm insistence that the Queen would be some kind of socialist, uber-liberal hero were she actually capable of influencing policy in any way.
Unfortunately, it goes not – a botched second epidural right after I mentioned being on the mend caused my bundle of sciatic nerves to go absolutely fucking haywire. Were it not for the anti-seizure, pain, muscle, whiskey, and weed medicine that I'm currently on, I'd have jumped in front of a trolley a long time ago. Still rockin' a cool ass cane and walkin' with a pimp-esque stank leg, though, so I got that going for me, which is nice.
It's been two and half months of this – gotta end soon, right? RIGHT??!!
They say that by the age of 40, you have the face that you deserve. By the age of 80, if you're Prince Phillip, you have the face that serves as a giant, flashing warning light about what an arsehole you are. <img src="http://www.theepochtimes.co...">
A wee bit o' advice to the English public as the likes o' Philip sponges off your nation's treasury: Lie back and think of England.
Both Sides Do It.
Also: Stuarts libel!

And some spotted dick?
it looks like they are trying to do that again.
This from the same man who told a group of reporters not to stay too long in China lest they become "slitty eyed".
Nice, does he kiss the Queen with that mouth?
philip would be a great republican.
I think it says something about English inbreeding that they actually like the Royal Family when treated that way.
England needs a new reality show: make the Royal family live as commoners for a whole TV reason, and see if any of them survive.
He does enjoy exhibiting his four-in-hand skills.

And then there's this.
Thanks for asking, my friend!
