Prince Harry: Back Because of Blabbers

Long live the Prince! Prince Harry arrived back in Britain today after a 10 week stint in Afghanistan -- withdrawn after the details of his secret deployment became public.

The Prince did not speak to reporters as he left the troop carrier. Surprise, surprise! According to the AP, Harry was greeted by his father and brother at the Brize Norton air base in Oxfordshire, southern England.

Prince Charles spoke about Harry and the media leak saying, "I feel particular frustration that he was removed unexpectedly early because, apart from anything else, he had been looking forward to coming back with the rest of his regiment."

Officials say the Prince could be deployed later this year, but won't pinpoint exactly where. Shocker!

92. here is a guy that is third to the throne in england. and he want to be normal like you and me. he want to service his country . so why are we bashing him. He is doing something he want to do when he was younger and he follow the dream.
so the media blow where he is .
If I was him I would sue every media that report the story . that might teach them a huge lesson ..

93. It took major stones for him to place himself in that hostile environment. I salute his service and humility and example.

94. Since today is St. David's Day in Wales (Prince Harry being "Cornet Wales) it is a tradition to give a leek (a vegetable) to each other!

I guess Matt Drudge thought yesterday was the day to give leaks!

95. To all those who hail Bush as some sort of hero in uniform let me introduce you to one... My father. This poor man "Money that is" went to Vietnam "The war Bush dodged by going to the Gaurd" from 1966 to 1970 a 19 year old marine with No officer rank meaning front line duty. All you punks who think Bush is some warrior should try saying it to a veteran's face. The Bush family couldn't shine his boots. As far as Prince Harry is concerned their is a real man thinking of country rather then self.

96. It's nice that both his Dad and his brother were there to meet him. That is the way families should be.

97. The story incorrectly states that he was "....greeted by his father." Where? They only show him with Prince Charles.

Anyway, now that Harry's back we can finally do that DNA comparison with Harry and James Hewitt.

100. It's too bad Harry didn't get a chance to serve his country. As for the media, it was an Australian magazine called New Idea that first printed the news about Harry's service and then a gerrman magazine picked it up. After that it was the Drudge report and then everyone knew so there you have it.

As for Dubya, yes he did risk his life in being the plane going to Iraq but he is the president and did start this war with the entire weapons of MD. So it only seems fair that he should risk his life. What doesn't seem fair that kids are over there fighting for nothing. Did we find the weapons of MD? No. Was the MISSION ACCOMPLISHED? No. We are still there.

As for Jake, it's the same crap mouthed off by people with no clue. Let's face it Jake, George W. Bush is the republican Jimmy Carter. And don't you look foward to your taxes going through the roof? After all somebody's gotta pay for the debt. Actually, I vote for you.

101. Liz, "nobody was talking about Clinton"?. Are you serious? They shouldn't have been talking about Bush either! Bottom line: Bush is not the first prez to send military into combat. Don't drag his girls into it just because you don't like him. It is not their fault. But you are right about the age of Chelsea at the time. I didn't mean it literally, it just doesn't make sense to dump on the Bush girls. And check out Chelsea's nails (and hair, and teeth), etc. There is nothing natural about that girl anymore either.

102. To be fair, I will pick on a better target. Why didn't Clinton send his brother into combat? Perhaps that would have been more age-appropriate.

103. Can anyone explain the drastically "non-military" haircut? I didn't expect "high and tight" but Harry looks a bit too much like a surfer...Are the standards that lax these days?

PS Sincerely, Bravo Harry...I'm sure that your mum is proud.

104. A prince and a normal man at the same time. That is impressive. My best regards. Sorry that you lost 4 weeks from your frontline service in Afghanistan.

With Prince Harry´s words: My withdrawal is a "shame."
