Obama's Golf Game Displaces Army Wedding
The Hill ^ | December 29, 2014 | Martin Matishak

Posted on 12/29/2014 9:43:16 AM PST by Colonel_Flagg

President Obama’s golf game on Sunday forced a pair of Army captains to move their nuptials to a different location, Bloomberg reports.

Edward Mallue Jr. and Natalie Heimel had planned to tie the knot on the 16th tee at Kaneohe Klipper golf course when management informed them that they would have to wait a day so the president could hit the links.

Kaneohe Klipper is an 18-hole championship course on the military base that offers views of the Ko’olau Mountains and Pacific coastline.

The episode is the second time the president’s golf game has caused a commotion since he began his vacation last week.

What kind of person would be so rude, inconsiderate, and self-important to think that his golfing schedule was more important than a wedding?

What a heel, as they used to say. I think he enjoyed that little power play, including his belated faux-pology.
Some of those golfing greens are pre-owned by crocodiles, he should keep a weather eye open.

The perfect comment regarding this sleaze bag’s behavior.

Inconsiderate megalomaniac.

BUMP!

Question is, since his “people” do the scheduling for him, did he know about the wedding plans and ignore them? Or did he not know about them, losing the opportunity to look like the “good guy” by publicly foregoing his start time in deference?

The latter would have been good publicity.

Since he first got into the White House, Obama has been using any golf courses he likes, any time he likes, and shoving everyone else off without notice, because no one else is allowed near the course any day he is there.

He especially likes to steal military golf courses from their usual users. It gives him pleasure.

If it had been two homos, no way would he have disrupted their wedding.

A poll just came out showing how the Military people don’t like him. Wonder why?

First off, these courses are generally off limits to non military. One would believe they would be his least physical worries regardless of their feelings about the bum. Besides that, seems to me they are relatively secure and it is not like the emperor is going about his hacking without an army of personal guards. So, the taking everyone off the course the day he plays is nothing but his being a p...k.

You know, Little Billy Clinton would have never forced the cancellation or relocation of a wedding— he would have made sure to crash the reception so he could hit on the bride.

“Taste like Chicken, maybe? Just a guess. Or maybe there is no natural flavor at all to that artificial ingredient.

How dare you, BC would never be so crass as to hit on the bride.

The bridesmaids would be another matter.
