At least it’s not another dictator he’s abasing himself to — this time
We criticized Barack Obama when he bowed to the King of Saudi Arabia. Americans do not bow to royalty. When the royal is the ruling tyrant of a despotic regime, the wrong is compounded. Obama’s bowing to the King was deeply offensive.
Obama has now done it again. Andrew Malcolm asks (and reports): “How low will he go? Obama gives Japan’s Emperor Akihito a wow bow.”
Obama’s breach of protocol is of a piece with the substance of his foreign policy. He means to teach Americans to bow before monarchs and tyrants. He embodies the ideological multiculturalism that sets the United States on the same plane as other regimes based on tribal privilege and royal bloodlines. He gives expressive form to the idea that the United States now willingly prostrates itself before the rest of the world. He declares that the United States is a country like any other, only worse, because we have so much for which to apologize.
How low will he go? Trick question, right? I mean, when one starts out from the absolute bottom of the barrel, as notmypResident Obamachrist does, how much lower can one possibly go? The real question here is: how low is he going to drag those of us who don’t openly despise our country as he and his sundry bootlicks do?
I’m pleased to note, however, that Scott does get it exactly right when he says that “Americans do not bow to royalty.” They most certainly do not. But Obullshitartist does.

Update! Ed rips the clueless carbuncle:
Seven months ago, the White House insisted that Obama didn’t bow to Saudi King Abdullah, understanding the terrible breach in presidential protocol that it represented. They tried to tell reporters that Obama was picking something up off the floor, which the video clearly shows was a lie (at the link). Take a look at the picture of Obama’s bow to the son of Hirohito. Do you see anything on that immaculate floor that requires retrieval?
American Presidents do not bow to royalty. In fact, heads of state do not bow or genuflect to each other in the normal course of diplomacy. At least, they didn’t until this amateur came into office and failed to learn from the first time he did it. What will the White House say this time? He got stomach cramps?
No, real American Presidents do not bow to royalty; this worthless, America-hating dolt damned sure does. And I’ll say this again too: he’s a sorry excuse for a President, a sorry excuse for an American, and a sorry excuse for a man.
Updated update! Leave it to Stoaty to find the humor in this miserable clown’s degradation of self and country.
Update to the updated update! Ace recollects another telling incident, one I’d forgotten about: “Obama Bows to Royalty, But Won’t Put His Hand On His Heart for the National Anthem.” Pretty much tells you everything you need to know about the creep who’s working so diligently to destroy our country.
