open!


I wonder what Hairy, Nom=de-Plump, et al will post to justify the bow.
Don't really care since they are banished from my computer.


It must be nice to be totally happy with being ignorant of foreign
customs, where you can criticize Obama for not being as ignorant as you
are.

Typical, unfortunately.


Doesn't matter. Not ONE of them said a damned thing when Bush did his
usual foreign customs screw ups.

Bowing to the Japanese emperor by any head of a foreign state is not
customary. Perhaps you can offer proof otherwise. Until you do, I'm calling
BS on you.

Not really sure how Bush's gaffes somehow excuses totally inappropriate
behavior by "The One".
