King Richard II (Sister Hermia, Brother Dayton), M, Queen Victoria (Brother Ackley, Brewster), Dying
1. Richard III M Mary Eadburg of Prussia, D 1232 A.D at 15 2. Peter II Died 1233 A.D at 17 3. Margaret, M Dempster Princess Mary Eadburg, Queen of Prussia claimed the throne to be hers after the death of Peter II brother of Richard the III her husband. Mary Eadburg's claim was called to legitimacy by faux claims that her husband had promised her the throne and Mary had her overseer and true lover Hershel forge documents to further legitimize her claim. Former King Richard II attempted to claim back his throne that he had given up on his death bed in 1232 but had ended up recovering from his sickness to live another 2 years until the death of his son, then King Peter II. Princess Margaret claimed the throne for herself after marrying the Scottish Prince Dempster in an attempt to legitimize an unification between the two kingdoms and Princess Margaret attempted to have her father killed to enforce the claim. King Richard II gathered his closest friends including the Duke of Lancaster Guthrie IV to gather an army of 10,000 men to hold his throne again. He fought the Scottish Army of Dempster at Carlisle and lost 2,000 men to Dempsters 3,000 men. Meanwhile Queen Eadburg rushed marriage to Lord Donovan of Canterbury and gathered an army of Prussian mercenaries and the Lords army to attack London while the Kings army was in the north. The attack failed but the Queen was able to further rile up support for her claim to the throne amonsgt supporters of King Richard. She was able to consolidate her power in the South of England. King Richard II was forced to move his army south to defend the capitol was Donovan claimed the north. Meanwhile King Jvork of Sweden had been banished by his brother Hardal to the Northern Islands. He was able to amass a mercenary army large enough to plunder northern Ireland and used this as a time to claim the throne from the times of the Saxon King Larga in England. He then used his Irish army to invade and conquer Wales.

My life:
Originally Posted by Tim Kreider Some of my younger readers may not even remember Ronald Regan’s presidency, and I would not want them to be misled by the onslaught of state propaganda they’ll be subjected to this week. Calling him the Great Communicator is like calling Hitler the Great Negotiator, and if we’re going to credit him with winning the Cold War we may as well credit him with the Challenger disaster and the return of Halley’s Comet. Let me tell you what it was really like: Even at age twelve I could tell that Jimmy Carter was an honest man trying to address complicated issues and Ronald Reagan was a brilcreemed salesman telling people what they wanted to hear. I secretly wept on the stairs the night he was elected President, because I understood that the kind of shitheads I had to listen to in the cafeteria grew up to become voters, and won. I spent the eight years he was in office living in one of those science-fiction movies where everyone is taken over by aliens—I was appalled by how stupid and mean-spirited and repulsive the world was becoming while everyone else in America seemed to agree that things were finally exactly as they should be. The Washington Press corps was so enamored of his down-to-earth charm that they never checked his facts, but if you watched his face when it was at rest, when he wasn’t performing for anyone, you could see him for what he really was—a black-eyed, slit-mouthed, lizard-faced old son-of-a-bitch. He was a bad actor, an informer for McCarthy, and a hired front man for a gang of Texas oilmen, fundamentalist dingbats, and right-wing psychotics out of Dr. Strangelove. He put a genial face on chauvanism, callousness, and greed, and made people feel good about being bigots again. He likened Central American death squads to our founding fathers and called the Taliban “freedom fighters.” His legacy includes the dismantling of Franklin Roosevelt’s New Deal, the final dirty win of Management over Labor, the outsourcing of America’s manufacturing base, the embezzlement of almost all the country's wealth by 1% of its citizens, the scapegoating of the poor and black, the War on Drugs, the eviction of schizophrenics into the streets, AIDS, acid rain, Iran-Contra, and, let’s not forget, the corpses of two hundred forty United States Marines. He moved the center of political discourse in this country to somewhere in between Richard Nixon and Augusto Pinochet. He believed in astrology and Armageddon and didn't know the difference between history and movies; his stories were lies and his jokes were scripted. He was the triumph of image over truth, paving the way for even more vapid spokesmodels like George W. Bush. He was, as everyone agrees, exactly what he appeared to be—nothing. He made me ashamed to be an American. If there was any justice in this world his Presidential Library would contain nothing but boys' adventure books and bad cowboy movies, and the only things named after him would be shopping malls and Potter's Fields. Let the earth where he is buried be seeded with salt.

Something else to put in my repertoire of arguments
The bible forbids homosexuality, eating a ham sandwhich, getting tattoos, rounded haircuts, men with injured or cut off private parts entering houses of god, consulting phychics, gossiping, wives helping out their husbands in a fight, children cursing their parents, getting remarried after getting divorced, working on the sabbath, women speaking in houses of god, eating shrimp, lobster, and other assorted seafood, and losing your virginity before you get married.
