Seinfeld insults British

[Si modo]

Sooooo, a Hollywood comedian drops a comedic bomb in the UK about the royals, and that's political? It seems more like it belongs in the People Magazine section.

 

[Mr Natural]

She'd better watch her back.

Remember what happened to the last commoner who married into that brood.

 

[rightwinger]

She must be a commoner, she is too attractive to be of royal blood.

Superior gene pool

 

[Gadawg73]

Yeah exactly what does the "Royal Family" do in England. Besides steal tax dollars I mean.

They get to fuck a lot of other folks other than their spouses.
Tradition has to be followed.

It is only politicial if it is Jane fonda.

If you're talking about Di, she wasn't a commoner. Her father was an Earl.

Up the Republic and Fuck the Queen!

Isn't the British Monarchy an example of a huge game of pretend? How can the Brits justify the continuing lavish support of a gang of misfits just because they are related to people who took over the country (by force?) in some distant age?

 

[Sunni Man]

The Royals are like a National soap opera.

Plus, they are the UK's top Tourist attraction.

So they generate a lot of money for the country.

Jerry's being a bit harsh but he's pretty much hit the nail on the head IMO. Being a royal is a great gig if you're lucky enough to win the birth lottery.

I totally disagree. Royalty can't piss without it being reported in the newspapers in the UK. Most of the Royal family work very hard for their crust. It ain't all that.

And.... I'm totally thrilled that they snubbed the Messiah.

I'm looking forward to the Wedding. We're having one of these 'street party' things. I figure it's gonna be cool.

Ohmigosh, that's brilliant!

That would be so much fun, lol...

Maybe he's talking about Wallis what's her name?

Yet it takes people living under it to realize its flaws, but if the UK wants to give out billions of dollars to a royal line that isn't even legitimate (the British Royal family aren't even British they are German) and further the bankruptcy of their country it can be my guest.

 

[Gadawg73]

The problem we have is many Americans will be watching the wedding while our "royal" politicians sit on their ass and spend another 50 billion that day.
We are a nation of village idiots.

Idiots keep their money, it takes nativity to give it away.

I like that. But I believe you mean naivety.
My HSA, SEP IRA and personal IRA along with depreciation helped me this year just TODAY!

Simpson....Wallis Simpson

He had to abdicate because he married one of the Simpsons.....big scandal

Actually, having a royal family brings in a substantial amount of bucks to the UK. That argument has been done, the royalty supporters won.... because they were right.... the Windsors are a money maker.

And... it's their business, not ours.

But, they don't take money out of the economy, they add value into it.

California Girl is right

We made sure it wasn't our business in 1776
