Geee Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 American Spectator:If Lesley Gore, singer of the 1960s hit "It's My Party," were advising the British monarchy on the royal wedding guest list, she might say, "It's your party and you'll invite whom you want to."But unless there has been a logistical error by the Royal Mail while delivering invitations, or a change of spirit by Buckingham Palace, neither President Barack Obama nor First Lady Michelle will be attending the highly celebrated event of Prince William and Kate Middleton on April 29th in Westminster Abbey.The conspicuous absence of the Obamas is likely to call into question the "special relationship" between the United States of America and the United Kingdom of Great Britain, result in a global media bacchanalia, and cause recollection of a series of awkward acts of statecraft.The Abbey is a venerated icon of Western civilization, established in the tenth century and the site of coronations since William the Conqueror. Several thousand souls lay at rest or are commemorated by monuments near its solemn Gothic arches -- monarchs, novelists, poets, scientists, composers, warriors, prime ministers, and others -- whose personal contributions and sacrifices are the foundation of Great Britain and much of our Western values and thought.

Pepper Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 Geee Nickydog I hope this is true as well. The Brits should name a loo after BHO, in honor of him returning Churchill's bust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AceRimmer Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 I'm guessing that Obambi can forget about ever getting that appointment as ambassador to the Court of St. James... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
