An American bows to no one. NO ONE. Except, sadly, this American:
That’s right, that’s 0bama, bowing before the Saudi King Abdullah. Think it’s just a trick photo? Think again. Check out the video.
This is insultingly disgraceful. This is not an incident of being a little unaware of the proper protocol. No American should ever bow to foreign royalty (and anyone pretending to be American royalty should be greeted with a boot to the ass), and certainly not to antagonistic royalty. Meeting the King of Arabia is not the time to bow… it’s the time to stand up a little straighter.
But not for that American. Teleprompters and prostration seem to be the hallmarks of this administration so far.
The man is an embarassment.

Words fail me. Just when you think The Messiah can’t f–k up any worse he lowers the bar.
There is no more bar – he’s digging his way to China one f–k up at a time.

What the heck is an American president doing bowing and groveling in front of Saudi King Abdullah? The Department of State really needs to teach President Obama proper protocol. Politeness and respect to a foreign leader is one thing, our president is not a subject of the Saudi king.
