Hi there - there is exact protocol for leaders in dealing with one another. In this case, if you do your research, you will seen none of the other leaders bow down. Only Obama and it has not happened before with presidents in this country that our leader bows down to other leaders.

If you do some research, you will find Japanese reporters laughing about Obama doing this. It may feel nice to you; but that does not mean it is the way leaders of nations are supposed to interact with one another - subservient. The messiah wannabe also bowed down to the Saudi king. That too was not in line with the way leaders of other countries deal with “royalty.” Obama is trying to show he appologizes for the Nation he hates.

...It is a great coincidence also that another kid named Barry called back to his friends in Illinois after his visit because he needed a social security number for his first job at an ice cream parlor.

interesting comment, do you have a source for that information?

I saw that yesterday, perhaps you had posted it then, too. Well, we don’t know, but will eventually if that is the case.

I’m sure he is under stress because his agenda isn’t falling into place as quickly as he planned. And, the stress ‘aint’ gonna let up!

Interesting. But what does the Enquirer say? They are more believable (Edwards story) I believe the globe; was the same mag that said while Bush was POTUS that he and Laura were divorcing after they left the WH because Bush was having a thing with Condi Rice.
