Snub for Obamas as Royal sources reveal they will not be invited to Prince William's wedding
Mail Online ^ | December 17, 2010 | FAY SCHLESINGER

President Obama and his wife Michelle will not be invited to Prince William's wedding next year. Because Prince William is not yet heir to the throne, his wedding to Kate Middleton is not classed as a ‘state occasion’ – and the couple feel under no pressure to fill the 2,000-strong guest list with heads of state, the Mail understands. They are more eager to ask ordinary citizens and charity workers than foreign dignitaries and VIPs to what will be the first royal ‘people’s wedding’, courtiers suggested. A handful of heads of state are likely to be invited in line with previous royal weddings, possibly including France’s President Nicolas Sarkozy and his wife Carla Bruni.

Though not a State Occasion, I'd think someone in the US government would be invited. JMO

I work at the EPA. They can invite me. And I’d actually appreciate it, and not look down my nose at the colonialist honkeys.

But... BHO is the one BHO was waiting for. We were told he’d heal the planet, calm the seas, and make America loved in every corner of the world.

I guess the disclaimer was: Except for those darn white western Europeans!

Obama wouldn't get it anyway.

It's a white thing.

The real question is did Pope Obama give them his blessings to be married?

How about someone with more class than those occupants of the White House. Just about any sanitation worker would fit that bill.

I think you are quite right.

Well, guess Kate and Wills didn't want an iPod from Bams as a wedding gift.

Good for them!

If President For Life Barrak Milhous Odumbo and his wife Raisehell WERE invited, they would certainly TRY to make the event about THEMSELVES and work a few insults in about America and the UK!!!

after wikileaks revealed what Hillary and Barry et al REALLY think about the Brits and even dissed the Brit troops in Afghanistan, I’d be surprised if the Royals can find anyone in the current US govt to invite.

Woudln’t it be a kick if they invited Sarah Palin?

That’s what they get for returning to England the bust of Sir Winston Churchill, which was I believe, originally a gift to the White House a few years ago.

I’d rather invite the Beverly Hillbillies to my childrens’ weddings than the elitist 0bamao’s.

Maybe they can invite the Palins. I’m sure they’d liven things up. They might even bring Caribou Chile for the Pot Luck dinner.

The Obozos can give them a wedding gift of Barry’s speeches on an iPod.

Maybe they’ll send him a video tape (European version) of the event!
