Poll question: How do you feel about the coming marriage of Charles and Camilla? Poll
Considering the fact that Camilla Parker Bowles is widely regarded as a home-wrecker, an adulteress, and the person who caused Diana's worse heartbreak - how do you feel about their coming marriage (especially if you are a fan of Diana's or of the English Royalty)?

Some people say that if Camilla hadn't caused the break-up of Prince Charles' and Princess Diana's marriage, that Diana would be alive today.

It's just another distraction from the screwing we are getting from our own government.

4. 1
people deserve to be happy. Let's not forget that Diana slept with every bodyguard, footman, butler, chef, riding instructor and every other man who came her way. At least I have to credit Charles for being faithful to his mistress all of these years:crazy:

8. they have waited a long time for this
You know, Diana knew what the deal was when she married Charles. They weren't lovers. She was a virgin. She was there to provide sons of a particular bloodline.

I think it's kind of sweet that a man of Charles' means who could no doubt have hundreds of starlets to play with has managed to retain his love for Camilla through arranged and political marriage, the near worship and beatification of his hysterical wife, and all the rest of the story.

I do not believe in royalty but as I am not English it is not for me to say why they tolerate the royals -- I'm told it's for the entertainment and tourist value and that it is worth it to them. I hope Charles and Camilla are finally happy and to heck with those who would see them miserable forever because of accidents of birth and politics.

The conservation movement is a breeding ground of communists
and other subversives. We intend to clean them out,
even if it means rounding up every birdwatcher in the country.
--John Mitchell, US Attorney General 1969-72

10. Plus - anyone who is a fan of the 'English' Monarchy...
should work on their understanding of the term 'democratic'.

11. How about a "Who cares?" option?
It's a footnote. She won't become Queen. It doesn't instantly make him King. Di hasn't arisen from the dead to halt the proceedings. It's not really of any concern to anyone outside the British Isles.

imho.

23. People should let Charles and Camilla slip into obscurity . . .
And worry about important stuff, like wether Puxatawny Phil saw his shadow two weeks ago.

I mean, people -- who cares!

28. Camilla was just one of many for a long time.
Chucky had a stable of married women to chose from until shortly before his marriage. Camilla was just the most determined, and she knows where all the skeletons are buried. Given a choice, I think Chucky would go back to playing the field. Unfortunatly, the book Camilla could write would be a real blockbuster. I also read once that the staff at Highgrove has spent years learning how to get grass stains out of the knees of her pj's. He's reaping what he has sown. This is no love story. Just two pampered, entitled, 1 percenters who deserve each other.

29. The Queen's not too happy about it...
just after the wedding announcment the queen referred to that bitch as "MRS. Camilla Parker Bowles". The ultimate put-down in Royal circles.

32. I don't blame Camilla for what the royals did to Diana. They
used Diana. And it broke Diana's heart to be used like that.

33. I have no opinion other than this:
Edited on Sun Feb-13-05 04:32 PM by Bertha Venation
That threesome:, Charles, Camilla, and Princess Diana (RIP), are the highest-profile reason I can use to illustrate that gay marriage is not a threat to the "institution," but that infidelity and divorce are.
