For the truly graceful, a baby's burp is a sumptuous opportunity.

That was "a massive burp" the size of "a small burp."

Looks like royalty has an easier time shedding postpartum weight gain?

More amazing is that is one of the highest concentrations of white women with white children I've seen in some time. It's almost amazing they let that into the interwebs unedited or at least without putting a Pakistani woman and her child in the frame.

Very unusual that. A rare hiccup in the matrix.

Polis and Boulder Democrats quickly draft legislation to allow mothers to kill babies who burp too loud in public.

You haters.

I am consistently amazed at the wholesomeness and feminine power of Kate Middleton. Her poise, grace, attractiveness, and intelligence are something not seen at elite levels in quite some time. She puts off an impression of royalty that would exist even if she wasn't royal and had never married into it. Frankly, outside of Elizabeth and Elizabeth the queen mother she puts most other British and Western royal women of the last 120 years to shame.

William is very lucky. No wonder Harry's so jealous.

Kate said...

Love her, love her grace and manners with the mothers and babies, but why is the emotional health of newborns a govt-funded project? Feed them and smile at them when you change their diaper. Easy peasy. If you must have a study, look at the emotional health of mothers. The babies are downstream from that.

William absolutely found the right woman to be his queen. Pity his brother wasn’t paying close attention.

His dad was killed by a Palestinian angry at his support for Israel. Given Jr's approval of Roger Waters a few weeks ago, he probably doesn't have to worry about that.

His uncle was killed by a commie. Given his calling for corporate "climate deniers" to be put out of business, he probably doesn't have to worry about that either.

And it's an imaginative stretch to think that Joe Biden has any supporters passionate enough to pull a trigger.

I wonder if the Harry and Meghan Industrial Complex planted that burp to throw off Kate? Spectacular failure on their part if so - Kate, calm and cool under fire, engaging the public with grace and dignity. A true Princess to herald in a Third Camelot.

It is like she cares about the people and what she can do to serve them, rather than seeing them as deplorables that need change.

She may have been gracious, but her gracefulness was incomprehensible in this video with such muddled audio. Did anyone catch what she actually said?

Is the NHS going to be monitoring gender identity in newborns and making sure the parents are completely neutral on the issue? The cynic in me suggests, yes, they will be.

There must be a protocol about women have to wear skirts when meeting with a royal. None of the new mums are in yoga pants.

"I am consistently amazed at the wholesomeness and feminine power of Kate Middleton...."

What I like about her is that she seems to have understood that to marry the Prince of Wales is to take a very demanding and particular job and she consciously accepted the job and is carrying out her duties.

That's not what happened with Diana.

I liked it much better when she wore shorter skirts. She is stunning in many ways, not the least of which are her brains….oh, and her legs. What a combo!

Agreed. Both her and William seem happy with their roles and do not chafe. I hope that makes a happier home life for their family.

I would absolutely hate that job!

Kate rocks!
Go Kate, GO!

Narr said...

I couldn't hear the conversation very well myself, though the belch was clear enough.

Kate seems like an all right sort of girl; other blokes in the line have done worse.

“That's not what happened with Diana”

Or the harridan married to Diana’s other son.

"What I like about her is that she seems to have understood that to marry the Prince of Wales is to take a very demanding and particular job and she consciously accepted the job and is carrying out her duties."

Amen. Very admirable. Not unlike her husband's grandmother. There used to be a concept - noblesse oblige - that emphasized the need and importance for those born-to-the-purple to give back to their society. The late queen herself even said during the war that being born into royalty is no more the choice of the born than it is the choice of anyone else who comes into the world. The royalty have as much an obligation to their society and to their fellow citizen as anyone else. They must do their duty. Elite stagnation, affluenza, and degeneration are as much to blame for how the world is today as anything else.

Kate is a great role model. I hope more women see her as something worth emulating.

The British royal family is a corporation. I think prince Andrew said that. Being raised to understand that or understanding that before going in is crucial for success. The real question is how Harry screwed up so bad. There's no way he wasn't raised with that impression, so what went wrong?

I agree. I wonder if she got some premarital coaching from the royal family since she isn’t from nobility and since her mother-in-law’s experience was such a disaster.

Big Mike said...

Kate’s husband, to all appearances, loves and supports her. Diana’s husband seemed jealous of her popularity, and did not mind flaunting a mistress.

Catherine is a bit of a low-talker. There have been a few videos I've watched where I needed to turn on the captions just for her.

Very classy woman.

Darcy said...

She said "Well done, you."

Moments in mommiehood. The hardest job... charming tales you will ever recall.

Narr said...

Thanks, Darcy.

Moms with babies.... Arrest them!
