Republican Clerics who are borderline xenophobic are working very hard in front of and behind the scenes to paint President Obama as someone who is weak without grit. Their political rhetoric is psychotic, says Yvonne R. Davis.
Okay so what if President Obama bowed to Saudi Arabia's King Abdullah at the G-20 Summit? Showing respect for the Elder King's position does NOT in any way mean the apocalyptic messages Republican Clerics are screaming over the air waves -- the US is going to turn Muslim and Christianity is going to get thrown out of an ancient Uzbek tower and smash on the ground because of the so-called Obama genuflect.
It is so wildly crazy to see all of this talky talk about President Obama on this silly issue. On Fox News you see the veins popping out of the foreheads and necks of their squawkers. On MSNBC, their conservative guests' faces turn real red (Not Pat Buchanan, he is always very cool and does not get caught up in the petty stuff), with their venomous punditry

No biggie, like his spokesnerd Giblets said, Obama always bows when he shakes hands with short people.....at least if they are wearing a turban.

Obama’s vigorous denial tells us that he realizes that to have bowed would be a Bad Thing.

I didn’t even make it past “Republican Clerics.” Methinks Yvonne is a moron.

Queen Elizabeth is considerably shorter than King Abdullah, and I didn’t notice him bowing to her. Matter of fact, he turned his back on her and Prince Philip in most of the photos I’ve seen, and stood there practically blocking them out, grinning at the camera.

So if it’s no biggie, why are they denying it?
And then there’s this:
“....to paint President Obama as someone who is weak without grit.”
Would the writer try to deny that?

If him bowing to Saudi royalty is no big deal, why did they lie about it?

The big deal is that it was his defining moment, for those of use who are paying attention and seeing thru the bull excrement.
So what if he bowed?
So what if he lied about it?
So what if he’s Kenyan?
So what if he lied about it?
So what if he’s a Marxist?
So what if he lied about it.

White House spokesman Gibbs says that 0bama didn’t bow.
So it means enough for the White House to lie about the issue to the American people.
That should be enough to be worth something.

They are using the tried and true Clinton Spin Machine process:
- He didn't do it.
- The evidence doesn't matter, he didn't do it.
- OK, he did something, but you right-wingers deliberately misinterpreted it.
- So what if he did it? Everybody does it.
- That's old news. The right-wingers can't discuss important issues like health care so they talk about the past.
