Oh my fucking God, is right! A President who observes traditional courtesy for another's culture! What a socialist! This country is going down the drain!
The ONLY one and went running up to him!watch the first minute of the video in the link...is it just me or is obama the only one who bowed...and that did not look like a protocol/equal bow, that look subservient.

any particular reason he didn't show that same for another's culture when he met the queen of england.....

now that you mention it, he zoomed right up for it....could have been the timing, they sat down for pictures shortly after or it could have been him meeting his islamic leader
Oh my god, he did the same with Queen Elizabeth. You all will never drag Obama down to the level of idiocy displayed by Bush everywhere he went.
The Obamas are admired all over the world.

President Hussein, being a Marxist, is admired by comrade Marxists... of course no American admires the Marxist Muslim... and no doubt you, as an anti-American admire the Marxist Hussein as well.
Nothing new there... just as there's nothing new that the Muslim, King Hussein would bow in submission to the Muslim King of Saudi Arabia.
Hell he just gave one of the largest terrorists networks on earth a billion dollars.
You keep saying the word marxist as if you feel you are capable of mind control.
Or is it like bot talking point buildup.

The Bush clip was funny - the hand holding was a amusing, but it was clear Bush was leading the Saudi King during that meeting. Also, I believe the King has difficulty walking.
At any rate, the focus is now on Obama, and this bowing thing....well, not sure what to make of it frankly. It looks horrible, and the political implications are many, but we will have to see if it has any real significance beyond the weekend pundit rounds that are sure to discuss it.
Obama appeared incredibly weak in that exchange - I almost thought he was going to fall to one knee!
A far cry from when Reagan met Gorbachev on those steps so many years ago, strategically arriving first so he could walk down to Gorbachev and as they both shook hands, and the cameras exploded, the image around the world was of the American President looking down upon the rather rumpled and uncomfortable Gorbachev.
Obama has been strikingly inept in his handling of these foreign leader meetings.
And not to be too harsh here (I hope) but all of this press babbling about the Michelle Obama as the second coming of Jackie O....really? I just don't see it. Michelle appears awkward, and her fashion sense a bit...well, cobbled together. Her walk reminds me of the Mr. Burns character from the Simpsons. (A more masculine Mr. Burns) Sorry if that offends, but the clearly fabricated accolades being bestowed upon her by the media is growing quite tiresome.

actually a president is not supposed to bow to a monarch....the purpose of a bow is to show that you bow to their rule......that said...it is choice to show respect....apparently he has more respect for oil than fish and chips......
Geez, can you whackos (except editec) stop splitting hairs over this. Is it really that important? Bush kissed him, Obama bowed or kissed his ring, its hard to tell. Who cares what might seem more subservient or self-deprecating. Either way, its not important. What's important is that we're slaves to Saudi oil. So stop bitching about Obama spending money to try and get us off of oil. We're all of us bowing to them with our money right now.
*Editec, I thought you wouldn't be so persnickety.*

There are pictures of Bush kissing him on the lips and the right didnt seem to mind.
I think the diff is a kiss means "we're friends" and a bow means "you're the boss". It's not the same kind of relationship.
