Yes, Our Lord and Savior Barack Hussein Obama put on yet another display of submission to a foreign leader by bowing to the symbolic emperor of Japan.

From Noel Sheppard at NewsBusters comes this image and commentary:

This photo will get Democrat President Obama a lot of approving nods in Japan this weekend, especially among the older generation of Japanese who still pay attention to the royal family living in its downtown castle. Very low bows like this are a sign of great respect and deference to a superior.

To some in the United States, however, an upright handshake might have looked better. Remember Michelle Obama casually patting Britain’s Queen Elizabeth on the back during their Buckingham Palace visit? America’s royalty tends to make movies and get bad reviews and lots of money as a sign of respect.

Just like when he bowed to the Saudi king, it’s a sign of submission. This man does not speak for me or millions of Americans. America does not bow in submission and subservience to any foreign leader.

Michelle Malkin dubs The Anointed One “O-Bow-Ma” and adds:

Crikey, is there a single adult in the White House who can teach the commander-in-chief some presidential protocol?

The Left complained that George W. Bush was too much of a cowboy on the global stage.

It’s better than having a waterboy.

Sister Toldjah observes:

If you’re ok with American Presidents bowing like he has to other heads of state, then perhaps you were disappointed with the outcome of the Revolutionary War, too.

Lefty blogs are now arguing that Obama was just being respectful. It’s far more insiduous than that. I firmly believe The Anointed One was offering an unspoken apology for the U.S. winning World War II and winning it through the use of nuclear weapons at Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

There’s no other explanation when every other nation’s leader simply shook the figurehead’s hand.
