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.

Kissing cheeks and holding hands is different from bowing and showing
subservience.

If you are going to bow to one monarch shouldn't you bow to all of
them?

No, you only would "respect" those that we are not at war with. Pay
attention Loogie, if you ever accuse me of the harry bull**** again,
you
are lying...

You don't think you sound just like Harry with your right wing post
after post after post?


I have reached over the isle several times in the last few weeks to
defend democrats. Harry, and of course you, have not and do not...




You assholes really are obsessed with me. Crikey.



I think it kinda cute...they really are fascinated by you.

To you, bowing is showing subservience. Bowing is showing respect in many
cultures.

Opinions vary, cultural customs don't mean much when you are ignorant of
them.

Depends on the culture?

A king is considered royalty. Shouldn't you show royalty respect?



It was probably better than when Bush, Sr. puked on that guy's lap... which
I had to admit was pretty funny.

Please tell me how someone, anyone earns the honor of me showing them
subservience.

I bow to no man, or woman (Plum).



You wish.


His wife snaps her fingers and he immediately heals and apologizes for
whatever he might have done. If she's not happy with him, he
immediately goes to the closet and drags the vacuum out. If she's not
happy when he's done vacuuming, he washes the dishes, dries 'em and
puts 'em away. I can't tell you what's next, she's sworn me to
secrecy.



Sounds pretty normal. We are very good at snapping our fingers and expecting
things to get done.

The funniest part was his slithering down behind the table. I wonder
if the guy saved his pants, like Monica saved her dress.

What time is it by your watch?
Uh, 9:43 did I miss something??
check your computer clock.

10:17 AM... Why? Am I missing something, I did get a new computer a
few
days ago, haven't really gone over it yet.

Maybe your version of Gravity (MicroPlanet-Gravity/2.9.13) isn't reading
your computer clock properly. But first set your time zone then time
into your computer clock just to be sure your clock is set right.


I just hope that somewhere in that huge federal budget we can find the
money to Obama some kneepads and a zipper for his rear and some
personal lube.


That's the kind of crap Don spews. You're way up the scale from that.
