Remember this when Barack Obama bowed before the King of Saudi Arabia at the G-20 summit in London last April? Even though the bow was captured by still and video photographers, the White House denied that it had taken place. "It wasn't a bow," an unnamed White House official told the Politico's Ben Smith. "He grasped his hand with two hands, and he's taller than King Abdullah." Yeah sure and I am the Pope of Rome. So the official word was: Obama didn't bow.
Well, then what will Robert Gibbs, the White House's mouth piece, call the little maneuver he made when he bent over up to his waist? Yup, that is the Emperor of Japan. This kind of crap just doesn't sit well with many Americans. The president, as the elected representative of the United States, should not be in the habit of bowing to foreign leaders, royal or not. Obama's deep, subservient bow makes it even worse; this was no little nod.
So what will the White House explanation be? Emperor Akihito is certainly shorter than Obama, so perhaps the White House will roll out the old "he's taller than King Abdullah" story. Perhaps Gibbs will deny that it happened at all. Neither will fly. This is something that Obama should explain.
Isn't there some way that we can get this S.O.B out of office NOW! I mean, after all, enough is Enough! The saddest part of all is that people actually think Maobama CARES what they think of him, now that he's already fooled the sheep into electing him.

And it's not just that mutherfucker. The world perceives it as the entire country being subservient.
What a fucking dick.
Yeah, and remember when Nixon and Eisenhower bowed before world leaders? I suppose you think they were fucking dicks also?
Absolutely. There's protocol and there's kowtowing. Showing deference is not protocol.
However, funny you should mention presidents who were in office during two of the most fucked up wars the U.S. has been involved in.
