The man just can't help himself, or he just doesn't care, this is following his town hall meeting in Shangai, Obama bows to the man with the microphone...Good Grief,.. (Video)

[Talkradio03]

He simply doesn't know that, THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES DOESN'T BOW TO ANYBODY, NONE, ZIP, ZERO, NADA...

I simply recall how Palin handled herself in Hong Kong and compare it to 0, and realize who really is presidential, and who is a limp-writed wannabe.

This guy is supposed to go toe-to-toe against Iran, Russia, etc. They are laughing at him behind his back, and pretty soon they will laugh at him to his face. And I thought Carter was a moron.

Once more, the art of insulting and humiliating the yanqui prez will again become the international sport of kings, dictators and terrorists.

[Mamzelle]

ugh—send on to Drudge—

[Talkradio03]

You are exactly right, ABQ..

They are laughing at this guy..And they see the weakness just like we do, what do you think Putin and Medvedev are saying to each other about O?

Man, it’s gonna be a long 3 years...

The State Department has dozens of full time staff who do nothing but study protocol and instruct our politicians on proper etiquette abroad. Either Obama just doesn’t care or he is incapable of listening to his staff.

[skeptoid]

Forget the Oba-Mao t-shirts - -

- - -we got us a bird necked BobbleHead President.

[Talkradio03]

I think the man simply doesn’t care, the thrill of weakening America is greater than the pain of our criticism...

[Arthur McGowan]

In order to keep morons (i.e., Obama voters) in the dark, Obama has to be subtle. Just as he had to be very careful precisely how he gave the finger to John McCain (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gZWW0c5yDCM), he has to be careful how he does what he’s doing now: He’s mooning the American People.

[riri]

I agree. He continues to do this stuff because

1. it's red meat to the radical whacko base

2. It's a big fat FU to people like us

[riri]

and 3. It’s just subtle enough he knows his minions can spin it to the people who don’t really care or pay attention.

[pennyfarmer]

My thoughts exactly.

I thought he looked like the thirsty bird. Drink, Drink, Ow ow broken neck.

I heard on Beck’s radio show yesterday that the WH protocol chief was found to not have even filed her taxes for 2006 & 2007. She said that apparently one got lost in the mail and the other one her husband lost on the way to the mail box.

[ricks_place]

O bammy not again.

This is either a fundamental character flaw and he cannot help himself -- because by now he got briefings for sure in Singapore on the FIRE STORM stateside in reaction to his Saturday bow to the Japanese Emperor, or, this is deliberate as a way to--as some assert--bow to everyone so he has a clever come- back that the highly unpopular King Saudi bow would have been for anyone (particularly with anti-Islamofascism sentiment in the USA running the highest it has since he took office). For whatever reason, it is obvious he is not knocking it off, and he does not do this back in the US culture (I did not see him do it in Europe), so what gives? Who knows, maybe it is a way to cover up the Japan fiasco itself. He might be bowing and scraping all across the Pacific on this one, trying to cover his tracks from before but create new messes. What an idiot.

It does not appear to me at least to be as egregious, culturally oaf-ish and perhaps even insulting as the Tokyo Bowshake, but nevertheless it merits analysis.

Bowing in Asia is a given, but two problems here Not that deep and certainly on his part, not to be done like this from a person of his stature (position), representing all 215 million of us, and our mighty military, when he is abroad. It might just be a larger part of this "citizen of the world" (sic) thingy going on his his brain and that of his senior most advisors and staff and most of his following.

Pardon me while I take leave here. I think I need 37 hits of vodka for each month left that I will be counting down.

[AmericanInTokyo]

Can you make that thing come down about another 15 to 20 degrees?? lol

[missnry]

Can you make that thing come down about another 15 to 20 degrees??

It will only do that if it is placed in front of Japanese Emperor!
