No American President Ever Bowed to a Foreign Leader — Until Now
Sunday, November 15, 2009 11:14 PM
By: Daniel Ruddy
President Obama created a new presidential precedent when he bowed to the Japanese Emperor Akihito and Empress Michiko Saturday.
No president of the United States in the more than 230 years since the country was founded in 1776 had ever bowed to a member of royalty. That was until Barack Obama’s presidency.
In April, President Obama bowed to the Saudi king during the G-20 meeting. At the time, Obama’s deferential bow was somewhat obscured, and the White House insisted that the president simply had leaned forward to shake the king’s hand. .....................>>>>...............................>>>>...................................

As long as the Emperor does the customary Obama fist bump when he visits our country.  |

It says....America is COOOOL....not smart......kind of like American Idol......... |
| ...you are a product of your environment, your environment is a product of your priorities, your priorities are a product of you......
The replacement of morality and conscience with law produces a deadly paradox.
STOP BEING GOOD DEMOCRATS---STOP BEING GOOD REPUBLICANS--START BEING GOOD AMERICANS

Obama’s bow and ‘Date which will live in infamy’
I do wish Mr. Obama had planned his trip to Japan so that he could have bowed to the emperor on Dec. 7, Pearl Harbor Day [Nov. 18 Gazette].
Since they partially own us, I'm assuming many Americans would have little or no problem with that — except for the World War II vets still living, who probably would have an instant heart attack.
My, how times have changed.
