HRH PoW could learn a trick or two about popular appeal from his ancestral namesake: a little less of the hair shirt and a little more of the Good ol' Boy would serve the heir to the throne well.Calvinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10640148105202971907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4413130168723738166.post-19846582903192914742011-06-01T19:56:59.930-07:002011-06-01T19:56:59.930-07:00Religion and politics seem inseperable.Religion and politics seem inseperable.anthonyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02931330128135957439noreply@blogger.com
