US Magazine :

Prince Harry's girlfriend Chelsy Davy was understandably concerned when it was reported Thursday the 23-year-old royal had been serving in Afghanistan since December.

"She was so worried when his location was revealed unexpectedly," a source tells Usmagazine.com. "The worst kind of things had been going through her mind."

It's not. So when will "A Night in Chelsea" be put on the internet?

The ultra right-wing, war loving, mean-spirited auxiliary of Fox News, known as the Drudge Report, blows the lid off the Prince's military service, compromising his safety and undermining the coalition effort in Afghanistan.

So where are the usual Republican shrieks of outrage against this particular media outlet? If the HuffPost had exposed Harry, they'd be howling for blood...

True. Drudge just hurt the war effort. Ruined the cohesion of a combat unit by removing one of its valuable officers.

Drudge has shown that they, whether they will admit it or not, have done the job FOR the Taliban and Al Qaida. They removed an effective combat officer from the fight. Just as effectively as if they had shot him.

So much for "supporting the troops".

Not only did they put Prince Harry in danger but his entire unit! The Drudge report is shameless and unpatriotic. They just endangered lives due to their irresponsible reporting.

So Prince Harry gets to come home. Great!

I wish to alert the Press: I have two brothers that are currently serving in Iraq.

Their wives, children, and families would be just as happy to see them come home safely as Prince Harry's will be.

So can they come home now also, along with 150,000 of their closest friends that are there serving with them? . . .

Amen, brother. This is total horseshit. This pampered prince was on freakin "patrol" like I have royal blood. He looked like he doesnt know which end of the weapon to use. That crap/photos of him "walking on patrol: is complete BS. There is no way this wussy walked into unsecured, unchartered territory. I know that area, there is not a chance in hell he was walking around there. Lies, propaganda and lies. Enjoy your return to THE GOOD LIFE, after your 60 day vacation/PR mission. Go back to your fluffed pillows, you jerk.

You are incorrect. He went to Afghanistan secretly, but the Brit media had access to him while he was there. They are now publishing the stories. He did his job as a soldier. He wasn't in some Cusshy job in the Brit embassy in Kabul. He was in HELMAND province... you know where the REAL fighting IS.

Try to do some research before you shoot off your mouth.

IMO he's fucked up a lot in his life as a youngster. However, he IS trying to do his duty. That is worth more than pissing about him on the ANONYMOUS WEB. He lives in a fish bowl, this was his FIRST CHANCE to just be a regular soldier doing his job.

Your brothers volunteered for the military, not boy scout camp, the military. Part of the deal is going where you are told to go. They didn't want to do that, they shouldn't have signed up.

I am no fan of any monarchy, but surely you can see that this kid's circumstances are different than the average grunt's--killing him would be a big PR coup for the bad guys.

That's odd. My brothers told me that they joined the U.S. military to honorably serve and defend our Nation, not to become cannon fodder for the political and financial benefit of others. But since you seem to know better, I will inform them they are wrong, and if they get killed, it's their own fault (unless they are somebody really important, like you or Prince Harry).

Please tell that to these people and their families:

U.S. MILITARY DEATHS (IRAQ): 3,973
U.S. MILITARY WOUNDED (IRAQ): 29,203
IRAQI CIVILIAN DEATHS: 151,000
'EXCESS' IRAQI DEATHS: 655,000

Yeah, and part of the deal of being an American president, vice-president, secretary of state and secretary of defense is having enough intelligence, integrity and honesty to NOT SEND OUR HONORABLE TROOPS INTO A DISHONORABLE WAR.

After what happened in Vietnam you really think that our government and its leaders are incapable of making mistakes? Sometimes huge, awful mistakes, like Vietnam was? Or are you one of those that thinks Vietnam was all, like, totally cool and should not have been challenged then the same way anyone with half a brain is challenging the Iraq "war" (i.e., occupation) now? Hmmmm?

Any member of any military has the expectation that their leaders are at least going to be honest, and diligent with respect to verifying/proving the main reasons for going to war (remember WMD?), and then prosecuting that war AND its requisite political/economic efforts competently. When year after year after year after year after year that administration proves its utter incompetence, then the citizens of a country and yes, even the members of its military, have every right to question that administration and its leaders. Ever heard of "lawful and unlawful" orders? Bet you haven't. Try looking it up.

Figure it out, for pete's sake.

Bless this young man's heart and courage.

Does this mean they never really broke up?

I hope Drudge is proud of himself. What a tool.

While I have less than zero respect for any of the monarchy, the pretend kind like Bush or otherwise, this kid showed us all he has a set of balls.
