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

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.

Obama has been using any golf courses he likes, any time he likes

Last Labor Day he was turned down by every golf course he tried in Long Island, they wouldn't take the big financial hit.

Did the wedding couple reserve this site? I bet they paid serious $$$ to hold their wedding here.

I’d sue the golf course for cancelling their plans and/or would not pay the balance due as a result of the bad faith actions of the golf course.

I’d tell him to go to hell, then resign my Commission, because I refuse to work for such an evil, selfish CiC.

What an arrogant ass. And it’s not as if there is a shortage of golf courses on Oahu.

If I wanted to start a major confrontation with the US I would check Obama’s tee-times. You would get a 3 hour head start.

Most military facilities, including golf courses,may indeed be unavailable to civilians, but up here in the Frozen North our civilian community members can in fact purchase season passes and compete in tournaments. They can become members of the club and attend functions.
