Why Is Our President Bowing?
Americans do not bow to foreign royalty. That has been the protocol from the birth of the nation. Except, I guess, when you are Barack Obama, and breech protocol in order to apologize for your country over and over again.
From Powerline: A reporter asked Obama spokesman Robert Gibbs about the bow. Under his own name and on the record, Gibbs deniedwhat any fool could see. Indeed, one astute observer commented on CNN that “Ray Charles could see that he bowed.”
This is the second time this is occurring in Obama’s short presidency. Remember this?
The White claimed this wasn’t a bow either. And of course, he bowed to the Queen of England as well…

It is embarrassing when the leader of the free world, the leader of the strongest democracy on the planet, bows first to a dictatorial leader of an Islamist country, and then to the emperor of a country that is no longer an empire because of American blood and treasure.
Maybe I am making too much of this…but I don’t think so.
UPDATE: Both Allahpundit and Hotair link to a New York Times article criticizing Bill Clinton…for almost bowing to the Japanese Emperor in 1994. How far have we come…
UPDATE #2: Yeah, Michael Ramirez is a god…and gets to the point, doesn’t he?
This is a sign that he desires to change America’s status in the world. Wait until he signs onto the Copenhagen Treaty.
This individual far more values anything and everything not American than that which is American. There is no correlation to this and the Holder view on Terrorists versus common Americans or those government agencies that seek to protect American interests?!?
Tea parties were a good start. However, it is far past time to truly mobilize and end this power grab loving crews strangle hold on our liberties before we no longer have any. Every representative of Government needs to know they will not have a job if they support this lunacy.
