...bowing to just about every head of State on the planet is not a good way to lead, either...
When an American President ACTUALLY does that, please do be sure to point it out to us.
1. He bowed to King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia at the 2009 G-20 meeting. He bent over at the waist into a right angle, he bowed so far.
2. He bowed to the Japanese Emperor in 2009.
3. He bowed to Mexico’s President Felipe Calderon during a G-20 summit.
4. He even bowed to the Mayor of Tampa, Florida for Pete's sake, while shaking hands with her.
5. Heck, he even bowed to a robot.
I didn't like it and I never voted for him. I still supported him, though. I did this because he was the President of The United States.
Oh...wait...you think a culturally customary greeting = how the President leads the country? Yikes, man. Just...yikes.
And that's to say nothing of the frothing-mouthed conservative obsession with trumping up every dip of Obama's head as "ZOMG HE'S BOWING TO A ROBOT."
