Obama lowers the bar with a bow to the Saudi king
As if it weren't bad enough that Dubya was getting cozy in his time with the Saudis, now president Obama does something just as disturbing, by bowing to the king. Here's the video:
When all of a sudden did this become so important to him, after he dissed the UK and wouldn't bow to the queen? It's to be assumed that he wouldn't bow to any other European monarchy either, and not even to that of Japan. I guess only Islamic-run monarchies matter, eh?
This too is a bad omen.
Update: as American Digest tells, American presidents do not bow to kings, because it makes it look as though the latter has superiority over the former, and because of the belief that all men/women are created equal. Obama has clearly failed to take note of this.
