| I am quite certain that this is not the protocol, and is most unbecoming a President of the United States. |
I really really don’t know what to think about any of these new bits of information today. I really want someone to explain all of it, with research to back it all up. I’m tired of guessing and speculating and going back and forth trying to decide if his inexperience is the problem, or if it’s all planned. Sorry, I’m just getting annoyed at this because of all the confusion wrt:obama’s intentions.
Wrong board. This isn’t DU. You need to go there if you think this is not a HUGE deal and you can bet your as* this will be the highlight of the GOP ads in 2010. Thank you zer0. The gift that keeps on giving.
Had to go look, and just like I expected, the DUmmies are freaking out thinking this was all a photoshop, or that the King bowed, too... Etc... Etc...
None of them have a CLUE - they are attempting to explain this away saying it’s the same as what Bush did. These people are dangerous in their blind adulation of Obama...

Great Campaign Photo when gas prices go back up.
“only the insiders would know what he’s doing.” Great point.
I keep posting something on FR that I just plain hope someone will find. It was a video on Fox a few years ago. I remember seeing it twice, once with Shep Smith.
People were demonstrating in Britain, specifically, muslims were demonstrating. At one point, a 30ish man in robes & a beard walked straight up to the camera and shouted, “You’ll see. We’re going to turn the White House black. We’re going to.....,” and he was motioned by someone off-camera to walk away, which he did. It sent chills down the spine of both my other half and me, as though the guy knew something.
I could point the guy out in a line up. I remember the video word for word at the point I mentioned. I had no idea what he meant then, but now all this has happened. I can’t find the video ANYWHERE.

BTW, the hand touching is sometimes reversed in movies.
Some people think just because they say things a couple of times that it must be true. I did a search and checked multiple pages of images and nothing came up either.
Is the video no longer on you tube?
“There are a number of photos on Google showing Pres. Bush bowing before the Saudi King, in a one-way bow.”
I don’t see it. Do you have a link?
Hmmm... You know I went to Google images, and looked. Can’t find any photos of Bush BOWING before the King... Did you lose your way on the net last month, or something and end up here by mistake?

As far as this “not going anywhere” why do you say that, and what do you mean by that?
Classless stuff coming from a classless guy. Unfortunately no surprises here. He just keeps coming up with more and more gaffes. What a pathetic loser.

One thing for sure there are enough Bush haters even on here that if there was such a picture or video it would have be posted by now. Must be some DU member who got lost on there way to the outhouse. :-)
Click on the website link at the top of this article. Scroll down the page and you will see the complete video. Obama did very clearly bow to him. It should be noted that no one else was seen bowing to the Saudi King.
I’d like to see a link too.
Wow. Thanks for posting the vid. I wasn't entirely convinced that the photo showed him bowing. But, the video is absolutely unambiguous. He bowed. No ifs. No buts. No ands. What an ultra-moron.
Come on, everyone knows the biggest insult is to offer a Muslim your left hand.
Go back and look at the file photos. Dubya knew what he was doing.

Arabs paid for Obama’s education
From the article:
“I think it is axiomatic that legal/financial advisers to Saudi Arabian princes do not routinely finance law school educations for nonbelievers. Therefore, we finally have a smoking gun, a concrete link, a very serious and substantial piece of strong circumstantial evidence, that Obama was holding himself out to be a Muslim as late as his mid-twenties.”
Exactly what I was thinking... Seriously... like THAT wouldn’t have been the picture we saw THOUSANDS of times ever since their meeting if it existed? Why would the Dems bother with the hand-holding picture??? I think I smell a troll.
Correct. This isn't at all like the Japanese custom of bowing, where both parties bow to each other - almost identical to a handshake in western culture.
In the middle east, bowing takes on an ENTIRELY different connotation. Barry's not unfamiliar with Arab and Muslim customs. This was intentional.
LOL — I think they were laughing because he forgot that they are all in on the plan and he doesn’t have to show his fealty in PUBLIC!
