As Mainstream Media try to defend Obama then more people become aware of what a doofus Obama is relative to other heads of state who have greeted the emperor.

This bow was a coverup to distract us from remembering THE bow, the one to the Muzzie King, the one that was HEARTFELT.

It's so simple: equal sovereign leaders don't bow to each others. Vassal lords bow to their overlords.

Sawyer claimed that Americans are “not trained to greet royalty” and “it’s just too confusing.”

Our training as Americans on this issue started in 1776.

AMERICANS DO NOT BOW TO ROYALTY.

PERIOD.

It is as simple as that.

Bummer looks like his back went out. With everyone else there was at most only a slight respectful lean, or in one case a bit of a curtsy.

“AMERICANS DO NOT BOW TO ROYALTY.”

Agreed. Which is why it was OK for 0bama to bow to the Emperor.

Proves that the Obama administration lied when they claimed that Barack was NOT bowing to the Saudis.

Allegedly, Teddy Roosevelt said once “If I see another king I'm going to bite him.”

Obama is bowing to his superiors and expects us to bow to him.

If Obama had actually bitten a foreign leader I would have a lot more respect for him.

Even the president from Superman knew better than to bow to ZOD.

What’s Barack going to say on December 7th, the anniversary of when Japan dropped that bomb on Pearl Harbor.

I’m not POTUS but am an American and it’s easy for me-—I would never acknowledge a title ...not even to the Queen of England, nor I would ever kiss a ring.
