President Obama created a new presidential precedent when he bowed to the Japanese Emperor Akihito and Empress Michiko Saturday.

No president of the United States in the more than 230 years since the country was founded in 1776 had ever bowed to a member of royalty. That was until Barack Obama’s presidency.

In April, President Obama bowed to the Saudi king during the G-20 meeting. At the time, Obama’s deferential bow was somewhat obscured, and the White House insisted that the president simply had leaned forward to shake the king’s hand.

But the president's recent demonstration of royal deference to the Japanese emperor and empress suggests his earlier action was no aberration.

Who won't be bow to...besides us?

it's not a BOW!!!!
He was just shaking hands with a shorter person!

It's deficit neutral... don't look any closer.

Fort Hood was not Terrorism... nothing to see here.

It's a penalty, not a Tax... keep moving.

It's not an enemies list... it's just email addresses we asked people to send us from people who disagree with us and we're now obligated to keep them under Federal law.

There is no rationing... we're just cutting waste and having millions more people covered with no plan to increase the number of Doctors.

Sheesh... You people read too much into everything.
