Talk about Peter Principle - President Obama has created a whole new
category of incompetence - a Super Peter Principle.
Now there's one he should take a bow for...

Speaking of gratuitous genuflection, I've heard through the grapevine
that the President is unofficially rehearsing for what he expects to
receive from the Queen of England in an invitation to be knighted,
with the understanding that he will invariably earn the honor in the
future (a kind of 'ROI'al investment).


I guess you guys never heard of Eisenhower or Nixon bowing.

The were probably briefed on protocol and acted accordingly. The current
dip hasn't a clue.



Hmmm... the protocol of not bowing? They both did. You really need to stop
watching Fox news. They lie over and over...


I was watching them last night. To their credit, they had a guy on
who was arguing on behalf of common sense. The only problem was that
Hannity had at least one and maybe two other Fox koolaid drinkers on
the program. So it was either two or three against one in a
semi-shoutfest.
