Why weren't the Obamas invited to the Royal Wedding?

What do Barack Obama and Muammar Gaddafi have in common? If you guessed that they're both Muslims, go to the front of the Tea Party.

Their real commonality is that neither got invited to Prince William's and Kate Middleton's royal wedding.

I can understand Ghaddafi's exclusion - probably bad form to have a guy in your party who's killing his own people. Besides, his wardrobe would clash with anything they'd wear.

Plus he's pretty busy right now defying NATO and Anderson Cooper and most likely couldn't make it anyway.

But what's with the President of the United States? He's in the rejected category along with Fergie, the Weight Watching Duchess of York.

Michelle Obama even said a few weeks ago on "Live With Regis and Kelly" that, "if I get invited, I'll go," as close to begging as this regal First Lady gets. And who, including the world's most powerful husband, has said "no" to her lately?

This is a snub of epic proportions. We should impose a no-Richard-Branson-zone over the U.S. in protest.

The other night in his Libya speech, Obama said, "Born, as we are, out of a revolution by those who longed to be free..." You think that was a coincidence? That's you he was smack-talking, rude and exclusive England!

We slapped you down in 1776 and 1812 so now you feel you have the right to slight us?

It's not as though there's no space. Even for killers. ..

I’m sure the Prince was simply trying to avoid the humiliation of having to open the Obama’s thoroughly inappropriate wedding gift in front of the cameras.

Why weren't the Obamas invited to the Royal Wedding?

'Rumor has it', that it had something to do with bathing regularly, eating like a horse and attacking the Buffet Table, and stealing the Silverware.

[just a rumor mind you.]

I suppose the Queen is racist, just like the Tea Partiers.

Pretty soon everyone will be a racist and no one will be left to accuse.

Thanks for the info. Could not for the life of me remember their going. The Steuben crystal bowl is ringing a bell in what’s left of the ole memory now that you mention it.

So the Reagans were invited but only the then-First Lady attended. Wonder if it was connected to his recovering from the assassination attempt? Or just the logistical/security nightmare that accompanies every POTUS event, on top of the world’s royalty and other world leaders?

Hey, libtard, the Obamas are, to use a Russian word are “ne kulturniy”, sometimes as justone word.

The Obamas were brought up to hate Anglos. The Anglo influence and culture is the most dominant in the world. The American and British “empires” are loathed by the Marxists of the world. Barry’s father, assuming the little dark man from Kenya is his father hated the Brits too. The leftists, radicals, socialist, commies of the world all hate the American/Anglo relationship.
Obama’s first act in the White House was to send the famous bronze bust of Churchill back to England. The British government said they wouldn’t take it back since it was a gift. The bust ended up in the British consulate in D.C. I think. With this in mind, as well as the sophomoric idea of giving the Queen an iPod with Barry’s speeches on it as well as the unplayable DVDs did not go unnoticed by the Brits. They got the message and I hope the usurpers in the White House are getting the message of the non-invitation!

Can you imagine Michelle on April 29 when the wedding is taking place??? I'll be Zero will be out golfing all day...and then doing some night golfing...and then looking for a late-night restaurant...

Michelle overhears a soon-to-be-sacked staffer: "Oh, look! The wedding's on all the channels!"

Michelle looks at the staffer

What the staffer sees next

The royals (most of them) have class. The Obamas do not. Makes sense to keep the former US Senator from Illinois away.

Wouldn't be a hoot if we find out some of the following are invited and it is kept hush...

1.) Either Daddy Bush ( and Mrs too) or GWB and Laura
2.) Darth Vader Himself, Dick Cheney (and Mrs too)
3.) The Palins....

If any of the above would be Schadenfreude baby !

I would invite the nobamas...to an appearance before a judge to be charged with malfeasance. Other than that, they can take a leap.
