Quote:
Obama touched on nearly every part of the Asia Pacific region during his speech, and talked about a boyhood visit to Japan with his mother, his birth in Hawaii, a childhood spent partly in Indonesia and the United States' position as a Pacific nation.

"There must be no doubt: As America's first Pacific president, I promise you that this Pacific nation will strengthen and sustain our leadership in this vitally important part of the world," he said.
It's always, always, all about him .

(UPDATES: 12:22 p.m. A brief news video has been added below, showing the greeting in this photograph. Contrary to some claims, the video shows no reciprocal bow by the emperor, who traditionally bows to no one. And we've added a file photo from 2007 of Vice President Dick Cheney greeting the Japanese Emperor in the same door way in a different fashion.)

How low will the new American president go for the world's royalty?

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 iRepublican vice president Dick Cheney is received by Emperor Akihito in 2007ts downtown castle. Very low bows like this are a sign of great respect and deference to a superior.

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.

continued at site....

My God, obama must really enjoy bowing and scraping to the world. He is an embarrassment that is for sure. Our leader should not be bowing to anyone, PERIOD!

If you would have looked at my title you would have seen that the word pathetic wasn't in there! I understand that being a moderator give one a sense of power over some, but at least be honest!

SEE TITLE! How low will he go? Obama gives Japan's Emperor Akihito a wow bow

I was just looking at the countries who hold US government debt. Sadly enough, I am wondering if this has anything to do with the fact that a large part of America's debt is financed by the Japanese. Tomorrow, I believe Obama will be in China. Considering China holds the largest amount of US debt, I am thinking Obama has no other choice but to bow down to them as well.
