“The bow was 0bama’s shout-out to Emperor Hirohito for bitch slapping the Evil Capitalist America at Pearl Harbor.”
It is bizarre that the president who grew up closest to Pearl Harbor would be so oblivious to the symbolic ramifications of a) failing to state clearly the military (and moral) justification for dropping the A-bombs on Japan, and b) having an American president (for the first time in history) bow in such a subservient fashion to the Japanese head of state. I’d almost have more respect for him if he was doing these things knowingly (even though this would imply he had a cunning or evil motive). Sadly, I think what we’re observing is the simple result of ignorance and inexperience.
I agree.
I think Baraq was basically a slacker/stoner in Hawaii.
It wasn’t until he hit the Ivy League that his ultra left persona was imprinted.
