Monarchy isn't quite dead

Well, it may very well be dead, but it's not useless. Not so long as kings can cut through all the diplomatic haze and tell two-bit thugs to "shut up". Fantastic.

It's good to be the king.

  1. ofqwtblI couldn't agree more with you thatthe Monarchy isn't dead. King Juan Carlos has been an extraordinary Monarch. We need more of his stature.

  2. I assume you noticed that a ringtone featuring the King's riposte has become a best-seller in Spain? http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/7101386.stm

    Maybe there's some vague hope for the Spanish yet . . . though I still think they were impossibly dumb for voting Anzar out of office.
