Default Greeting foreign royalty- Didn't Bush kiss the Saudi King?

IMO showing respect does nothing to lessen one's own stature.
And I have no problem with Bush kissing and holding hands with the
Saudi. This is the only way to express those inclinations over there,
since being queer is a capital offense.
Some might argue that the Saudis were behind 9/11, and be ****ed by
Bush's show of affection.
Saudi Arabia is still the fount of Wahhabism.

Here's the current bill we owe Japan.

Best to show some respect to creditors.
Don't want them calling in the debt.
Might not matter to a deadbeat full of false pride though.
