Charles should be King for a Day

It has been a while since we heard about our good friend Charles, the Prince of Wales. His son, William, will soon be getting married to his long time, on and off girlfriend Kate Middleton. William is extremely popular unlike his dad Chuck, who is considered a washed up royal. Chuck rants about global warming every chance he gets with his Un Mata Hari wife at his side.  He even urged his subjects to bath less to combat Global Warming, a suggestion the California Chuckles actually carries out. He’s considered a joke and will probably never get the throne. That’s why the following suggestion is hysterical. Queen Elizabeth should make Charles King of Britain for one day!

Royalty is not supposed to show any flamboyant outward emotion, but you can’t blame Prince Charles if, inside, he’s getting a little antsy.

He’s 62. He’s been waiting to be king for a very long time. The job is his by birthright, but he can’t campaign for it. His mother, Queen Elizabeth, will turn 85 this week. She has been queen since she was 25. She doesn’t seem to be a woman who is thinking about giving it up.

This month Charles’ older son, William, will marry Kate Middleton in a ceremony that will be seen around the globe. Already there is talk that perhaps the line of succession should skip a generation — that Charles should step aside and allow his son to be the next king of England. William and Kate seem destined to be dashing and popular. Charles, for a variety of reasons, isn’t universally seen that way.

His mother has now been queen for 59 years. She can hand the top job over to someone else by only one of three events: by death, by abdication, or by retirement.

King for a day? It certainly would be a memorable reign, even though it lasted only 24 hours. Something riveting for the history books.

Poor Prince Chuck. Him and his Un Mata Hari wife get no respect. Like his Californian namesake, he’s the relic of the past and just a laughing stock. No one takes hims serious. If he was made King for a day it would something to laugh at. Now if the Sage of Culver City was king for a day that would be a nightmare!
