Even BLOOMBERG JAPAN about 20 hours ago ran a story in Japanese with the lead in of Western top business leaders coming to the Chinese and executing 90 degree bows from the waist (Japanese term: "お辞儀") so that the Chinese and the world now know who's boss. They lead-in with the story about one particular Western CEO recently in Hainan, China kowtowing to his hosts.
This is just the beginning. But it is a potent international imagery that needs to be reversed ASAP!
I hope Sarah Palin tears Patrice Lumumba Obongo a new one on this in her Tea Party speech coming up. With SPECIFIC reference to the D.C. "Hu Jin Tao Bow", and I am sure Bolton could tee up the perfect red meat soundbite quote for her.
THIS IS DISGUSTING AND OUTRAGEOUS.
Thanks for the update. The GOP should be screaming from the rooftops over this and reference all the past bows, also. Along w/his gov’t take over of health care, auto industry, banks. Because some of the clueless cannot follow the dots.
I often wonder what the SCOTUS thinks of all of this.
