Hawaiian wedding interferes with Obama's golf plans; asks couple to relocate at the last minute.

A couple had to move their wedding to another venue when President Barack Obama arrived at a golf course on a Hawaiian Marine Base Camp on Sunday.
The couple, Natalie Heimel and Edward Mallue Jr., are both captains in the army and were set to marry at a venue at the golf course, until Obama came to town to play golf. Since he regularly visits the golf course, the army captains did invite the president to the wedding, but he declined.
After the couple were told to move their wedding away from the Marine Base Camp, the bride became emotional. The groom's sister stated that they had to change everything less than 24 hours before the couple wed.
The couple were able to have their wedding at another venue, which was described as being better and prettier than the venue at the golf course.
As for the president, he did call the bride to apologize and congratulate them. The bride said that the phone call "made their day."

My Two Cents:
I am not a fan of our President. When I read this story, I was very angry. This man made this couple change all of their wedding plans (at the last minute) so he could play golf (when is he NOT playing golf?!).
H could at least get them a nice gift, or cover the cost of their wedding. I mean, these are Army captains for f***s sake! They fought for this country's freedom! A personal phone call from Obama does not make up for the mess he made. It was absolutely rude for Obama to crash their wedding plans. This isn't even the first time he's done this either. Back in October, he was responsible for a bride being late to her own wedding because she was stuck in traffic due to his motorcade.
I understand these things happen when the President is in town, but I still find it very rude that he does this.
It's bad enough that he ignores the problems in this country (a country he is in charge of), but to tell an Army couple to move their wedding at the last minute (so he can play golf), just goes to show what kind of man our President is.
I know that some of you are Obama supporters, but this is how I feel. Yes, I understand Obama has done some good in this country (legalizing gay marriage, etc), but, for the most part, he has been an absent President. He is always on vacation and he is always playing golf. He could get a whole lot more done if he sat his behind in the oval office and did his job.
