Why is the POTUS bowing to royals?

[alf]

I thought we sorted all that out when we declared independence that all men were created equal.

[red-beard]

Some are more equal than others

[Racerbvd]

Because he just doesn't know any better.. All we heard was how smart this clown is, boy does he have them fooled...

[varmint]

strange compulsion to go eye level with world leader's junk.

[Dottore]

C'mon.

He's just diving for some of that chicken...

[The Gaijin]

Except the Queen of England - and if there ever was a classy Dame, it is her..

BAM gave Her Majesty the old head-bob and smile, like she was a local ward healer on Chicago's South Side..


As for the Emperor Heisei of Nippon - I thought Old Douglas MacArthur laid down the protocol for that relationship?

China's Blunt Talk for Obama - WSJ.com

China's Blunt Talk for Obama
WSJ; Nov16, 2009


BEIJING -- China's top banking regulator issued a sharp critique of U.S. financial management only hours before President Barack Obama commenced his first visit to the Asian giant, highlighting economic and trade tensions that threaten to overshadow the trip.

Liu Mingkang, chairman of the China Banking Regulatory Commission, said that a weak U.S. dollar and low U.S. interest rates had led to "massive speculation" that was inflating asset bubbles around the world. It has created "unavoidable risks for the recovery of the global economy, especially emerging economies," Mr. Liu said. The situation is "seriously impacting global asset prices and encouraging speculation in stock and property markets."

Early Monday, a spokesman for China's Ministry of Commerce added further criticism of the Obama administration, targeting recent measures by Washington against Chinese exports. "We've always known the U.S. and the West as free market economies. But now we're seeing a protectionist side," the spokesman, Yao Jian, told a monthly press briefing. Mr. Yao also rejected criticism of China's currency policy, saying the yuan's exchange rate has little to do with trade imbalances with the U.S. and that China should keep the exchange rate stable.

Let's not forget the "pat on the back" that Michelle offered up to her, ever so graciously!

This must mean constantly denigrating your constitutionally elected President in the most vile personal terms and publishing repulsive racist content on this web board constitutes American behaviour, is that right Byron?

For those that missed what Racistbvd published, it was a photoshop portrayal of a black infant – a real picture of someone’s child- morphing into a piece of excrement under the heading "Birf".

There is not much on the internet that I find disgusting Byron, but you are Top of the Pops.

[Z-man]

Racer- you 've been warned before - knock it off with the inappropriate pictures. It is becoming very tiresome.
Suggestion : before you post, ask yourself if it would be appropriate to post. If it isn't appropriate, hit the back button instead.

The bowing interests me, though. I think BO would have to bow before the Pope. Bowing before the Queen is always warranted. And in Asian countries everyone bows to each other.

I don't see the big deal.

When Tabs' silver spoons are replaced with porcelain chopsticks, then I think we have cause for worry.

[jluetjen]

Oh -- you mean this?



There is a protocol -- The President of the United States bows to no human. We worked that out a couple of hundred years ago (give or take a decade or two).

And yet a couple a hundred years w/o kissing some ass (or giving a bit o' head) does tend to catch up on a person/a country.

When it was Presidnt Bush, liberals thought so, they even said they wanted him dead..

Just how is posting a picture of a turd racist, he has already been called that?? Of course the fact that he is 50% white but chose, even stating it in the racist book of his, to be black, you don't find racist???? As to being constitutionally elected that may not be true, not with his involvement in acorn & the fact that he still hasn't produced a Live Birth Certificate... Funny, why didn't you ever say anything when the liberaLs were calling President Bush names and constantly denigrating him? You didn't care then, and in typical liberal fashion, someone post something you don't like, have it deleted...

[nostatic]

Byron, more than one person complained about the image. And some of them were "conservatives".

Go out and get some fresh air...seriously, step away from the keyboard and try to enjoy life.

Racer, I didnt complain or ask fo it to be removed. I quoted it would be there for everyone to see. God only knows what bile you have stored away that you wont post.

What is amazing about you - as in the diatribe above- is that you dont even see your racism, and you dont understand the difference between fair comment- or even unfair comment- and personal, racist vitriol and invective.

You are a sad myopic bigot, Racer.
