Because the Emperor is not American or Christian.

Akihito has converted to Islam?

Because he wants so much to be loved by those who will only mock him for being a floor-scraping kissass.

It’s because he’s short. He only bows to short guys.

Obama is beholden to all non-Americans.
And he loves power, the sick enabled narcissist that he is.

All designed to deflect the earlier criticism for bowing to the Saudi Prince. Means nothing to Obama except to make a statement, “Look at how humble I am even though I am the most powerful Marxist in the world.

To provide cover for bowing to the Saudis? You know, it’s his thing as leader of the free world. He doesn’t just bow to muslims, he bows for EVERYBODY! What a guy!

Because he’s a no class thug wanting to send a message to Americans that it’s not exceptional to be a free person in the United States...
