I think Obama is truly an admirer of dictators and despots. He wants to kowtow to all these poor, misunderstood authoritarians we big meanie democratic types have been critical of.

This idiot is all over the Japanese news today:

When has he ever made a definitive statement as to why he bows like this over the last year around the world? Where is his accountability on this issue? What are his direct words as to why he does this? The whole WORLD is noticing. Has not ANYONE from the press (no brainer) asked him publicly or forced an answer from him about this diplomatic and personal behavior?

He has two choices to answer IMHO. A) "Well, actually, the fact of the matter is I am an idiot with little experience in foreign affairs and cannot help myself", or B) "Glad you asked. Well, it is deliberate, and it is meant to send a message that we are a declining power and we also understand our new global despotic masters, which happen to be heretofore enemies. Got it?".

Which one is it, 44?

But bowing to them won’t lead to their support. Likely the opposite.
