For some reason this picture tells me something that neither the bow to the Saudi king or the Japan emperor told me. This bowing stuff was taught to the boy Obama in Indonesia by his stepfather as a local customary sign of respect.

In other words, when Obama does it, he does it almost out of habit, not really knowing how outrageous it is for a man in his position. He is still that little boy doing what daddy told him to do. He has probably done it thousands of times, but nobody noticed or cared until he became president.

I think he just realized that his shoelaces were untied.

That Air Force officer is so embarrassed, he’s disguised in Navy garb...

He didn't bow to the Queen of England. Show me one time he bowed to a white person. It's race based, not cultural.

when lacking any real back bone... the human jelly fish will often flop forward in a motion not unlike bowing in submission.

up next will be 'roll over in full submission'. this is common for all cowards

This man is so out of touch and ignorant, that he thinks all asians bow when greeting each other. It’s as simple as that! He sees people first of all as products of their skin color and applies what he believes to be the correct stereotypical response.

That just nails it right there. 0baMao is a racist right down to the bone.

She’s a mayor. An American mayor. Why bow?

Tampa Mayor Honors Extremism

According to this, apparently that "American mayor" is a closet Muslim just like he is so his bow is fitting...

...every year for at least the last four years of the six-plus years she has served, Mayor Iorio has honored CAIR, a radical Muslim organization, with a Proclamation naming a day for the group...

Let’s see..first to a Saudi king, then the Emperor of Japan, there was someone else...

0baBow almost loses complete control of his body bowing to the Chinese.

He heard her last name and thought she was a foreign dignitary. That is one bowing negro.

thecraw, I think you nailed it. One Muslim to another.

The Japanese thing was a fluke, Obama knew the guy wasn’t Christian, so that was close enough, figured he better bow to be on the safe side.

The Japanese thing was a fluke

Could be. Or it could be that, considering he is a namby-pamby, limp-wristed, hand-wringing commie, he is probably consumed with guilt by our two nuclear actions (Hiroshima and Nagasaki) that led to the surrender of Japan. Also recall another fave of the "blame America first" crowd -- the "evil" internment camps we put Japanese-Americans in during the war. That makes TWO two good reasons for someone like Barry to genuflect before the leader of Japan.

It may be that the Japanese kowtow was just a highlight of his "apology tour." Kumbaya!

Whatever the reason, one thing we DO know is that Barry does NOT have the best interests of the US at heart. I really don't trust anything he says or does, and continue to consider his every action suspect.
