Mark Steyn: US may not be a monarchy, but people like 'Prince Hunter' get inequitably 'royal' treatment
Fox News
Upon the death of Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, "Fox News Primetime" guest host Mark Steyn remarked he would hold back from speaking at length about the British Royal Family.
"On the surface, this isn't age friendly to kings. Prince Phillip's cousins were murdered. His grandfather, King George I of Greece was assassinated," said Steyn of the late royal, 99, who was the husband of Queen Elizabeth II and father of heir apparent Prince Charles. Philip's hereditary line ran through the royal lineage of both Greece and Denmark. "Yet," Steyn continued. "Monarchy has been the natural order of things for almost the entirety of human history. Whether it is an actual monarchy or as is more fashionable, hereditary dictatorship such as in North Korea."More Related News
