The Bowing |
|
|
Posted by ntrainride on Mon Nov 16 12:06:26 2009 This is kind of interesting. Pulled it off of, yes, the Drudge Report. Of course, this is the internet so the ususal cautions are in effect. Still...I am curious as to why he bowed and none of those other folks did. |

But only people who don't suspect that there may be more to this story are wondering "why he bowed and none of those other folks did".I mean seriously, how long will it take you to realize that photos are often passed around that are presented in a less than truthful context... |

It turns out, of course, that not only did Presidents Nixon and Eisenhower bow to foreign leaders (Nixon to the Emperor of Japan, Eisenhower to Charles De Gaulle), but President Bush actually held hands with and kissed Saudi Crown Prince Abdullah.This is all of a piece with the "controversy" last year that Obama was not wearng a flag pin -- while all the time, McCain was not wearing one either. No one reported that. Liberal media bias? Ha! |

Every pic you can find of him with the Saudi king is related to him being given a medal.Not a single foreign potentate bowed to the Japanese emperor last week. Only Obama. There was absolutely no demand of protocol to bow. It's pretty sad that you have to go to such extremes to find cover, and yet still fail. |

Don't lie - I didn't say Bush bowed - "only" that he smooched Abdullah (a Muslim, BTW).Why is Nixon bowing and Ike bowing "extremes"? I don't know if other leaders didn't bow to the emperor (proof?), but if not, they are the rude ones. I can just see the right hyperventilating if Obama did NOT bow to the emperor -- "Obama rude to emperor, embarrasses US." Heads I win, tails you lose is the current GOP M.O. |

Actually, no human should bow to any other human but right here and now I'm only concerned with my fellow Americans. Citizens/Leaders of other countries should respect our cultural values. We're the people who don't bow. |

It's not in our culture. We shake hands, a gesture of assumed equality that does not involve a display of implied submission. It ain't just obama. no president should bow, ever. Just the thought of it irks my Yankee sensibilities. |
