QEII: Guest, Not Ruler
Isn't it wild how W treats QEII (Queen Elizabeth II of the UK) as American royalty and one to fawn over with the utmost deference? The White House is feting the English monarch with a white-tie dinner and acting as if we had lost the Revolutionary War to King George III. Americans should not bow, should not curtsey, and should not not look her in the eye. She is our guest, and we are her equal. Let's act like it! We are now Americans: no longer British subjects!

Great quote, G. Btw, as Hillary Duff might say, the royalty is "so yesterday."
We'll know we're really in trouble if Starbucks start serving High Tea at 4:00....
Exactly. If there is a quick buck to be made, they will. Ironically, that's the American way.
She deserves respect: she snubbed Brian Williams, after all...
As more and more broadcast viewers are.
