At last: Biden gives an unrehearsed speech that lets us know what’s really on his mind!
I wouldn’t take The Daily Mail too seriously, but it would not surprise me. As people decay mentally they can get kind of gross, in part because they lose motor control. This whole business is a scandal of stupefying proportions. Partisan Democrats just pretend it isn’t happening. (I did catch that not-timely acknowledgement from Adam Schiff of all people that Robert Mueller was and is non compos mentis; Rosenstein arranged for his appointment; he’ll never come clean about when he realized Mueller hardly knew whether or not he was coming or going).
Way down south in the land of cotton they call it, “sitting on a frog.”
What is astonishing is that 30% of Americans are equally fatuous as to still support these commies.
The woman clambered her way up to the top, to be Queen one day, by having an affair with her current husband behind her own husbands back. She is the last person to be throwing shade at an old man with dementia who farted in her company. Gee she’s having us believe she is a woman of decorum and class or something. She’s not.

She’s likely a woman of decorum and class in real time. She is disreputable due to her past, but that’s a regrettable feature of the age (see BoJo, David Lange, the Trudeaus, Mr. & Mrs. Hawke, Sir Mark Thatcher, Bt.). She won’t be referred to as Queen-Consort, which is why she uses the derivative of one of his subsidiary titles on official circulars and the like. In some better age, she’d have no official title and stayed out of sight.
Note, of all the troublesome people around the royal family (Edward VIII, Wallis Simpson, Princess Margaret, the 1st Earl of Snowden, George Lascelles, Mark Phillips, Diana Spencer, Sarah Ferguson, Prince Andrew, Meghan Markle), she may be the least embarrassing (or perhaps just one ratchet above George Lascelles).
“She’s likely a woman of decorum and class in real time.” That’s up for debate. I wouldn’t rate her acting skills at public events and she isn’t exactly an oil painting. If the story said Camilla blew wind meeting Heads of State, I don’t think anyone would blink.
I am with Art, on all counts. The DM is uneven, and probably least reliable when it comes to gossip. I mean, this is believable, but grains of salt are warranted.
If true, it almost makes my heart break for Biden. Then I remember what he does when he is in his right mind, and it stays unbroken.
As to Camilla, I can’t condone adultery, but Charles’ situation shows where arranged marriages can go very very wrong. Charles and Camilla were A Thing in the early 70s before each was married, but apparently Buckingham wouldn’t have countenanced an engagement at the time.
He’s as responsible for the adulteries as she is, and she has comported herself with grace and dignity as Duchess of Cornwall. Which is more than can be said for other princely relationships.
I just hope nobody lights up a match or flicks a Bic around Biden!
Can you image how many injuries or deaths there could be?!
“she has comported herself with grace and dignity as Duchess of Cornwall.” Yes. Completely.

Thank God for 1776! Politicians are bad enough without tossing in the soap opera of Royals!

By some accounts (and some are verified because Charles allowed Jonathan Dimbelbey to review some of his correspondence), Charles was taking advice from his great-uncle. The advice might have been serviceable if not ideal during the man’s youth, but was not optimal ca. 1971. Part of that was to let Camilla go as she had a past. Uncle Louis’ next idea was to fix Charles up with his 2d cousin, one of Uncle Louis’ grand-daughters, and ideal appealing to Charles and the girl’s mother. Uncle Louis and two of his grandsons were murdered by an INLA terrorists in 1979 and his grand-daughter had at that point no interest in being any more proximate to the royal family than she already was, so she turns Charles down when he asks her to marry him. The two other women Charles had an interest in at that point (Camilla and Dale Tryon) were already married. Diana looked satisfactory on paper – she’d grown up in a great house in the Midlands, knew some of the royal family personally, had no past. The downsides were the age difference (12 years), the IQ difference (she failed all of her O-level examinations, very unlike her siblings or Charles’), both of which were known. The third downside was crippling: a set of dispositions which are sometimes given the clinical name ‘borderline personality disorder’.

I’d say the four Reagan kids, two of the Ford kids, one of the Bush kids (and his 1st wife), and a mess of Joseph Kennedy’s brood (at least four of his children, at least two of their spouses, and about 1/3 of his grandchildren) make for ample soap opera material. Then there was Eleanor Roosevelt’s brood, who between them had 19 marriages. Dwight Eisenhower’s grandchildren have kept it to 10 or 11.
Giving horses mints strikes me, at least, as rather low on the scale of public indignity for the Houses that have reigned over the Sceptred Isle. Charles II’s well-known stable of mistresses leaps to mind. And one of them dispersing an angry crowd with “Good people, I am the Protestant whore!” seems a mite more embarrassing to a ruling house.
I was referring to the picture rather than what she was feeding the horse, as a typical example of how Camilla is not “graceful” or “dignified” in public. There are plenty of internet memes where Camilla is making a complete goose of herself. I agree at least that her and Charles probably deserve eachother.
