1. They just make me mad.

It makes me angry to see these wonderful people that were abused, attacked, taken for granted for 8 yrs, people we now would give a LIMB to have back, but NO.

NO, people did what they did last November, and I cant talk about it, but I am fucking FURIOUS.

[Siwsan]

2. Deep Breath!!!

I share your anger - no doubt about it. I also realize that being away from that incredible and unrelenting stress will help them be around, even longer because I strongly suspect that their work, here, is not yet done.

[Boomerproud]

34. I wish Trumpets would admit that their vote last November was a slap in the face to these selfless

people.

[RamblingRose]

3. I would have loved to see Obama kneel next to the athlete in the last picture n/t

[TxDemChem]

4. I needed this today

Thank you for posting

[Delmette2.0]

5. Thank you. You're right, I smiled.

[Glorfindel]

6. Thank you for posting this!

a much-needed smile.

[Skittles]

7. I loved the Prince Harry with Michelle Obama pics

they got along very well - he admitted they were discussing the trials of being second bananas

[Butterflylady]

8. Thank you

smiles are so rare nowadays, if ever when it comes to the oval office.

[Kittycow]

9. I smiled !

I'm a shameless Obama /Prince Harry groupie

[Stuart G]

10. Ok, I don't know...who is the fellow next to Obama in top picture

??????????????????????????????????????

[KY_EnviroGuy]

13. Prince Harry from the United Kingdom.

Third in line for the throne, after the Queen - I think.

[Stuart G]

15. Thank You...I really didn't know...They sure seem happy..

Obama...a .."class act" in every way imaginable. I miss him..

[KY_EnviroGuy]

16. They're a lot alike...

...'cause they both use their prestige and power as it should be - to help others less fortunate. Two very inspirational people, and both are sports fans!

[TexasBushwhacker]

17. Nope. Prince George and Princess Charlotte are now in line.

Harry is now 5th.

[KY_EnviroGuy]

21. Thanks for the reminder of those rules.

Is there a minimum age rule for succession in the UK? I remember reading of countries literally having "boy kings".

Oh wait, some might say we now have a boy king! Boy plutocrat would be more accurate.

[TexasBushwhacker]

22. Minimum age is 18

If, heaven forbid, Queen Elizabeth, Prince Charles and Prince William died at the same time, then Harry would serve as Regent until George was old enough to become King. If Elizabeth were to become incapacitated, then Charles would become a Prince Regent until she regained health or died.

23. Thanks, the complexity would make one's head spin.

Finally found a decent Wiki page on the topic. It's interesting but seems so foreign to us, just to maintain bloodline.

An novel observation from Wikipedia:
(snip)
The Coronation Chair constructed in 1296, with the Stone of Scone visible beneath the seat, has been used at the coronation of English and British monarchs for 700 years.

25. And then there's this

"Any of the first six in line marrying without the sovereign's consent would be disqualified from succession."

[3catwoman3]

26. More like Boy Fool...

...or Boy Jester, IMO.

[hibbing]

11. Watch the video of the last picture

President Obama gives one of the athletes grief, as always, so funny. I think I will miss him for the rest of my life.


Peace

[True Dough]

12. You win!

I smiled. Yes I did.

[KY_EnviroGuy]

14. Thank you for posting those - what an uplift! n/t

[TexasBushwhacker]

18. Did you see the video with the popcorn thief?

[Boomerproud]

33. Harry will be a wonderful dad. Not that I should care but I am really hoping he and Meghan Markle

are in love and soul mates.

[Ohiya]

19. I like seeing 44 with 46.

Fingers crossed!

[samnsara]

28. oh! I just got that...and YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!

[seta1950]

20. ❤️

😍😍😍

[edbermac]

24. Quite a contrast with this photo.

[syringis]

29. Go figure why...

I'm not specially fond of royal families, well not at all.

But Harry is really a nice guy, he has strong principles and never hesitate to fight for them.

[lunatica]

31. She looks like she wearing clothes 5 Times too small for her size

The buttons are bulging, the darts and seams look like the’re pulling apart, the sleeves are too short and her breasts are being flattened. And it’s an ugly suit. Maybe she thought it looked British or something.

[Scurrilous]

27. K&R

[syringis]

30. These pictures are in the same time...

...a cruel reminder of the darks days we are in and a refreshing breath to avoid us a fatal fall in despair.

Thank you for posting.

[onecent]

32. Yes, these pictures made me smile!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
