Surprise, Surprise, none of the major US dailies carry the embarrassing pic of an American President bending in half and stooping so low to a foreign potentate.

Great pic. Looks like an emancipated slave giving thanks to his masters.

Well, my friend, it was the Los Angeles Times that broke the story to begin with on their website. That was what started the entire controversy.

Rest assured we'll never know that, but judging from his track record....

LOL.

Why didn't he touch his forehead to the Emperor's shoes ? Or at least the ground.

I googled it and the only substantial hit was the Telegraph ...

OK, if Obama really feels that way about Japan, then fast track selling them the F-22. If we aren’t going to buy them, then let the Japanese buy them and keep our assembly line open. Heck, offer to let them buy decommissioned US Aircraft carriers (I think the Constellation, Kitty Hawk, and Kennedy are all possible candidates) and submarines if they want, too. If they United States is going to drop the ball on defense, we should pass it on to the Japanese in Asia since the odds of the Japanese turning in the United States approach zero in the foreseeable future.

Not to worry!!!! Between FNC and the internet, the overwhelming majority of the American people will see what a buffoon we have for our President. I suggest he come home shortly and tune into the “military” channels on the cable channels, and get a good view of the “Bataan Death March” and the true story of “The Bridge Over the River Kwai” before he goes bowing to the Japanese Emperor!!!! This incompetent POTUS does not have a clue about American history. I’d be stunned if you asked him who the Tuskeegee Airmen were in WWII if he answered with, “why, they were African American Airman (pilots of P51 Mustangs that provided cover and protection for our B17 bomber fleets flying over Germany. And.....by the way folks, these supposed, less then equal Black airmen provided truly “sterling” air coverage & protection for the USA bomber crews. True, loyal Americans to the core, all of them!!! God bless all of them and their families for their loyalty and outstanding service to our country!!!

The LA Times is the story that kicked it off, so I’d disagree with your title.

I stand corrected. Comment #11 says otherwise. I don’t see it in today’s print edition of either the LATimes or the NYTimes.

Make this go viral. Get it to seep into the public and go around the MSM.

Post questions and answers to Yahoo Answers.

Email it to your friends.

Add comments to the YouTube videos.

And when the Left spins themselves into convulsions trying to dismiss this or say that Obama’s just honoring local custom, point out their stupidity.

In light of all other questions on Obama's loyalty and sacrificing of American sovereignty — Obama's definitely hit a nerve on this one!
