Does anyone remember if President Reagan and Mrs. Reagan were invited to Charles and Diana’s wedding? I don’t seem to remember that they were.

So Obummer and the Wookie weren’t invited, who cares!

The following is from www.reaganlibrary.com:

“The wedding of Prince Charles and Lady Diana Spencer on July 29, 1981, was one of the most celebrated spectacles of the decade. Due to the recent attempt on his life, President Reagan could not attend, but he encouraged Mrs. Reagan to serve as the United States representative at the event. Mrs. Reagan spent one week in London, which is the longest she had been away from her husband in twenty-nine years. She attended eighteen events on behalf of the nation, including a ball at Buckingham Palace, a dinner at the American Embassy, tea with the Queen Mother, and lunch with Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher. She also placed flowers at the Memorial to Britain’s Unknown Soldier and visited a veterans’ hospital. “

So, we can reasonably assume that the Clampetts currently occupying the White Hut were intentionally not invited.
