I was hoping they would seat M'Obama with Carla Bruni at the wedding.
That idea worked so well at the Normandy honors.

Remember the whole gift fiasco with Obama?
Obama recieved a deep and meaninful sybolic gift.
Obama gave an ipod...
Obama has told the Brits, “Screw you!”, so many different ways, I am not surprised.
Actually, it is a pseudo state occasion, as the British monarchy still plays the role of head of state for the United Kingdom. That said, Obama is easily the most anti-British POTUS in the last 100 years. Lord only knows what he would do.
Additionally, there must be the very real worry that Michelle will come dressed as a maxipad again, or worse Cinderella (complete with crystal slippers and a Disneyesque carriage). Have the Obamas ever done any event that wasn't 'about them'?
Considering Obama's been dumping on the Brits since he got into office then I wouldn't invite them either.
Highly doubtful that she would be invited. Of course, that might not stop her from attempting to invite herself.
This is the best news of the day so far.
I hate to think what horrendous getup Michelle would wear and how embarrassing it would be for all Yanks to have the First Couple represent us.
Well, Grandmother got a stack of DVDs or CDs, I forget which, which won’t play on GB player. So I’m guessing that the gift wouldn’t be much from the Os. I just got a save the date card from the daughter of a business associate for whom I carry little love. I hardly know her. I think I’ll be out of town that week. Send her Bush’s new book. LOL

Welcome to Free Republic, snarky sharky. Keep reading and maybe you’ll learn something.
Don’t they need two tall guys in tails hanging onto the back of the royal carriage? I would think B. Hussein could handle that job.
That will teach them not to paw at Her Royal Highness. LOL
George W and wife could represent us colonists pretty well. And the Royals wouldn’t have to count the silverware afterward...
Only if they don’t serve any English food.
The real reason the Brits engaged in imperialism was the search for something decent to eat.
“Wadda ya mean? Of course Reverend Wright will marry the couple. We insist! He could just stand next to that priest or rabbi guy you got, and after the couple recite their own vows, and we got some good ideas on that, too, then the Reverend could give a big sermon about how all you white people are no damn good and racist and need to give more money to the black third world.”
“Prince Charles thinks it’s a *great* idea! Oh, and he wants everybody to wear grass skirts and have Lady Gaga do the music. She’s available.”
That wouldn’t be possible, really. They could invite someone or some people from the U.S., but they could hardly invite someone in government and ignore the Bamas, unless they had a significant personal relationship with that person.
It tickles me that the Obamas are not invited.
I can’t imagine why he’s being snubbed—after all, he changed the way the world sees us & all.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE William and Kate - Send Obambi an I-pod with videos of the event when it is done
Touche!
You know it! And Charles is picking up the tab. Gotta love it.

No, the British subjects are picking up the tab. The royals are supported by them. It amazes me how many post here are from people that will condemn people on the dole and turn right around and jump on the “free” food & booze at a celebrity wedding that doesn’t affect your life one iota.
I’m waiting on a parcel with the House of Windsor’s seal on it anyday now...
