Just Wondering

Would this would have happened if this was a gay wedding?
From Fox News:
Before they could say "I do," President Obama needed to play through. 
Two Army soldiers reportedly had to relocate their Hawaii wedding over the weekend so the commander-in-chief could play golf. 
Bloomberg reports that the Army captains, Natalie Heimel and Edward Mallue Jr., had planned to get married at the 16th tee box at Kaneohe Klipper Golf Course, on Marine Corps Base Hawaii, on Sunday. 
But just as they were finishing their wedding rehearsal on Saturday, they were told they'd have to move -- to accommodate the president's round the following day. 
"It was emotional, especially for her -- she's the bride and in less than 24 hours they had to change everything they had planned," Mallue's sister Jamie McCarthy told Bloomberg. 
The couple reportedly ended up moving to a lush site overlooking the 16th hole, which one of the wedding planners said was more secluded and prettier anyway. 
The White House may not have even known about the wedding in advance. 
And after Bloomberg asked the White House about the incident, Obama apparently tried to make it right. 
McCarthy told Bloomberg the president called the bride to apologize and congratulate them. "Made their day," she said.

Obama may not have personally known, though who knows, but the White House personnel did know.
And they were to afraid or too stupid to tell him about the situation.  And Obama created that culture.
And if this was a gay marriage, I am sure the White House personnel would have made different plans for Obama.

  1. Well, I can tell you don't read the blog very much because I am not obsessed with gay marriage, except the politics of it and the hypocrisy of those who favor gay marriage. And I rarely write about it.
