For some reason it will not let this American watch the video.. Says “video not available in your country”..
The video is down.
I once worked on the emperors telecommunications for his plane, but I never bowed.
In fact I believe that it was General McAuthor at the close of WWII that abolished the symbol of the Chrysanthemum which was symbolic of the emperor as a deity
Americans dont bow
Says a lot about Obama.
That guy sure loves to bob his head down
He is just ingratiating *subjugating* himself to make the world a kinder gentler place
Bowing is nothing to Hussein. He grew up kissing the ground five times a day, indoctrinated into the insane muslim proposition that all indivduals are worthless and useful as nothing but fodder for the armies of allah.
The demeaning and denigration of all American institutions is one of Obamas main goals, and every ounce of respect and dignity that the Indonesian/Kenyan can suck out of the Presidency goes a long way towards accomplishing his goals.
The US will not be able to weather another three years with this Anti-American in the White House. That is just an obvious fact that carries with it the obvious implications.
Wow, I thought you were being funny. It’s actually censored.
I don’t see this as the same as bowing to a worthless muslim.
Bowing to a Japanese person is not a gesture of subordination, surrender or worship. It is a greeting and sign of mutual respect, not unlike a handshake.
Japan is our friend and they are not trying to kill us or funding those that are.
I would always prefer to bash that POS Obama, but I see this one as a different situation.
Having said all of that, if while he was bowing he was also apologizing for Americans being nothing but the scourge of the planet, like he himself believes, then I would see it differently. ;>)
You know, I wouldn’t mind, Obama could bow and kiss anything, anywhere, anytime, HE IS A FREE person, BUT HE REPRESENTS ALL OF US, and in doing this, vicariously he makes it appear that all Americans, together with him, enjoin, relate, unite, to this dastardly deed. I wouldn’t kiss anyone’s feet. Cornelius got on his face and kissed Peters feet, what did he say, GET UP, I’M ALSO JUST A MAN. Japanese for centuries have viewed their Emperor as some kind of Deity. How shameful for the guy that was elected to do such a humiliating thing.
If they bow first I suppose is ok as a token gesture.
I note Obama does all the bowing here
Agreed
I am not certain of all of the protocols as to who is supposed to bow first, but I think that if one doesn’t exchange bows, it’s considered an insult.
Obviously, he was briefed on the Japanese custom and protocol by his incompetent aides, but he forgot that he was American (?) and the POTUS at that.

Screw em
We dont bow in America
excellent
Excellent graphic.
