Thread Name: BS: Charles to marry Camilla
Subject: RE: BS: Charles to marry Camilla
The nastiest sniping about this is as usual coming from a GUEST. Talk about a nasty little git!

Those goofy British rules that regulate royal behavior have worked against these two from the very beginning. Charles' first choice was never Diana, and while I don't think their (his and Diana's) behavior was great it certainly also wasn't unique. Their lack of discretion is what I saw as most disheartening--you'd think they'd look out for their own reputations better for their own personal wellbeing. Despite the occasional nonsense, they came up with two fine children, and if they were like many of the divorced people I know, it was worth getting into the relationship for the children it produced. The press and paparazzi didn't aid Charles and Di in leading discrete lives when all is said and done. The fact that despite the public scrutiny Charles and Camilla have remained a couple speaks volumes regarding the appropriateness of their marriage.

What do looks or age have to do with being in love, git guest? Not a thing. But the same shallow sensibilities that lead you to taking anonymous pot shots shows us how unimportant your view of the topic is anyway. Go read your yellow rag for the next big scandal.
