*Ooops* Harry Did It It Again!

Prince Harry may never be King of England but he is seriously competing with his grand-dad the Duke of Edinburgh for the title of "King of Gaffes & Blunders". Poor Harry, he has given the press another one! This time, he has caught himself on tape referring to a fellow student at Sandhurst from Pakistan by a racist epithet. His press people will have us believe that the bantering chums over at Sandhurst all gave each other nicknames such as this. Yah Right! So what was Harry's? Despite his military record and his impressive charity work in Lesotho, Harry just does not seem to stop himself from putting his foot in it. Some years ago, he courted controversy by donning a Nazi costume to a fancy dress-party. Are the Princes given any sensitivity training at all? Mmmm...anyway, why should I give a hoot?!

In this instance, I agree with both the people who are upset by Harry's faux pas, as well as those who think the press is blowing it out of proportion.
