One Queen and 12 U.S. Presidents

Since her ascension to the throne on February 6, 1952, Queen Elizabeth II has met all U.S. Presidents with the exception of Lyndon B. Johnson. She actually would have met President Johnson during the funeral of President John F. Kennedy but was pregnant with her third son, Edward, and was unable to make the trip.
Before her coronation she also met former President Herbert Hoover and President Harry Truman. President Truman is the only U.S president to have met the Queen while she was still a Princess back in 1951. Below you will find a gallery of the Queen’s encounters with the U.S. Presidents through the years.

Queen Elizabeth met former President Herbert Hoover in 1957, more than 20 years after he left the White House. She joined Hoover and New York Mayor Robert Wagner at a luncheon in the Waldorf-Astoria hotel, New York, Oct. 21, 1957. The Mayor’s luncheon was held in honour of the Queen after she was given a ticker tape parade up lower Broadway and an official city welcome at city hall.

The state dinner was the only white-tie event that Bush, a president famous for his Texas drawl and informal style, held at the White House.

Her mother lived until the age of 101 so she may follow suit and live until a ripe old age.

Re: One Queen and 12 U.S. Presidents

Fuck these inbred cunts. You think they love you? Guess again. Why do you all even participate in such silly shit? Does she have the special ability that no one else has like laying a few hundred eggs a min or finding water? If not then she's just another pompous, celeb, spoiled cunt. She only has the power YOU give her.

Respect for the Queen? They don't have especially high approval ratings either and have only been higher recently because of all the fuss over William's marriage. Charles is @ 21% and the Queen is 48%

Stable? So stable that they're threatening to leave the EU.

Most powerful currency? There's is strong, but there are stronger one like those of some of the oil producing OPEC nations like Kuwait. Ours is currently 13th.

But Germany & France have larger economies than the UK and it's just 1/6th our size, plus our per captia GDP is almost $10,000 greater than theirs.

Our unemployment rates are virtually the same (7.8 US - 7.7 UK)

The average person over here has no more respect for this bunch of German Inbred parasites than they would for dog excrement that they picked up on their shoes. Instead of just having one bunch of cunts ripping us off, we have two, The Government and the Royals.
We don't get a choice in paying for their life of luxury for the very good reason that if we did have a choice, Liz and her bastard bunch would be living in a council estate in Moss Side and dealing with the scum that they pretend don't exist because they DONT have to deal with them.
They are the epitome of small-scale eugenics gone wrong.

Stable? So stable that they're threatening to leave the EU.
Actually the government want to remain in the EU but are promising to give the public a chance to vote if we stay in. That's not a threat but giving us a choice. And i'll be voting to wave bye bye to the EU.

Maybe so but we don't get a choice in many matters actually that happen here in the UK. I think there are far more important matters to rant and worry about at the moment than the royal family.


Anyway i actually posted this thread in relevance to the actual topic (People, & Events in History) of this part of the forum, not to debate about the royal family and which country is best
