Here is video of President Obama at a reception for G20 leaders yesterday, where he bowed to King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia. Only subjects of the King are expected to bow before him. Obama bows at the 1:36 mark of the video. It does not show if for long. This video also shows Michelle Obama and Queen Elizabeth II put their arms around each other. . . . . . . (Watch Video)

I’m SHOCKED SHOCKED I tell ya............NOT.
Despicable.
In many countries a slight bow is standard between equals. If King Abdullah bowed back I have no problem with this. If he didn’t, that’s a different story.
And how is that worse than holding hands with Prince Abdulah?
Either way...it's unbecoming of the POTUS.
Sickening really.....
Who’s the brunette in the white dress?
At least Hussein the Usurper isn’t a Mooslimb.
The little nod to the queen was fine. But, for the king, Lord Obomba almost folded up like a pocket knife.
Disgusting.
I think you will have a problem with it. Watch the video
Here is the video by Michelle Malkin:

“If King Abdullah bowed back I have no problem with this. If he didn’t, that’s a different story.”
Clearly it didn’t. At 1:36 of the vid, it’s quite clear it was a deep bow by 0bama. But then, only subjects of the king are required to bow, so zero was only doing his muslim duty.
Looked like he dropped something on the floor. sheesh.
In one case the President is subservient, in the other the President is not.
Probably his approval ratings.
At least they didn’t kiss and hold hands, like GW Bush did with the Saudi.
Obama:
1. Familial background: muslim
2. The “oopsie” with Stephanopolous (”my muslim faith”)
3. The “gaffe” of “57 states”
4. First post-inaugural media interview: Al-Arabiya.
5. First foreign leader contact: Mohammed Abbas, PA
6. Closing GITMO
7. Says we are “not winning” (read: LOSING) in Afghanistan
8. Says we should talk without preconditions to Iran
9. Sends essentially surrender-themed video to Iran
10. Plans within months to give a speech in a muslim capital.
11. Plans to free GITMO detainees on our streets WITH WELFARE ASSISTANCE!!!
12. Seeks to add a significant number of muslims to high-level governmental positions.
13. Plans to hire Harold Koh, who believes sharia law should apply to disputes in U.S. courts.
And now #14. Bows instinctively like a “good muslim” to Saudi King Abdullah.
The list keeps growing.
