Buttigieg officiates emergency wedding minutes before C-section
NYPost ^ | April 1, 2019

South Bend Mayor Pete Buttigieg – a surging Democratic 2020 hopeful – officiated an emergency wedding back in Indiana Monday.

Buttigieg said he was enjoying some downtime this morning when a young couple paid him a visit. “In my mind I saw the rare few minutes of free time I had left vanishing, and without meaning to be discouraging, tried to hint that I did not have a lot of time for unplanned meetings,” Buttigieg wrote in a Facebook post.

But the couple, Mary and Gabe, explained that they were on their way to the hospital for a 9 a.m. c-section appointment. “And they were hoping they could be married before she delivered,” Buttigieg said, noting that it was already around 8:15 a.m.

Sure, yes sure.., we really believe that this was spur of the minute and not PRE-PLANNED.

I kinda hope it’s true. Nice to see a couple want to make things right even though they made mistakes.

I woudn't use that word. There's such a thing as illegitimate parents. No such thing as an illegitimate child.

Not saying that any of these individuals in this story are Catholics, but FWIW, the term used by Catholic Canon Law is "natural child."

Well, that certainly enhances his resume as a presidential candidate.

Same old BS fluff pieces for Democrats every election cycle, side by side with “Republican kicks dog” pieces.

Presumably they had nine months or more to get married, but didn't bother.

They just happened to have a marriage license with them, on the way to the hospital?

If they had no license, the ceremony is NOT legal.

Weird story and I'm skeptiocal too.

They didn't even have a ring with them, so I doubt that there was a marriage license!

This story is one big fat fabrication!

And just anyone can waltz into his office, with no appointment...REALLY?
