I have no issues with Obama showing respect to the leader of other countries, if bowing is customary, so be it.
I do however, have issues with Obama's Socialist agenda to systematically dismantle our Constitution and bankrupt our Nation....for this, he is a tool. All hail the Tool........:worship:
Quick, somebody call the White House and have them slap together an etiquette office. Something no president in history has needed until now,......,I think he just needs some "etiquette" lessons.
*ahem* I think you mean etiquette CZAR. Get it rightEDIT: The last sentence is sarcasm, for those who can't spot it. I know there's an etiquette office in the white house
Nope! The Czars are to tell US what WE'RE supposed to do, they don't tell hem what to do.*ahem* I think you mean etiquette CZAR. Get it right
When I was on Okinawa, I would bow to people when first intro'd. But it was always a very short bow, no super low bows like Obama. Enough to show respect to the other person, but not so much as to change my standing to below theirs. Obama's bowing the way a commoner would bow to the Emperor, not as an equal.
