Talk about Peter Principle - President Obama has created a whole new

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.

I'm familiar with the Brezhnev-Connors hug.

It's one thing to comport oneself with appropriate diginity and with
respect for others, it's another to act obsequiously. It's not
befitting a president of the United States and leader of the free
world, even if the President deems it to be a necessary symbolic
gesture. It's a symbol rooted in a naive ideology.

Both bowed... Eisenhower to de Gaulle???? Can you say right wing meltdown if
that happened now...

Nixon bowed to Hirohito (in the US I believe) and to the Pope, not to
mention holding hands and kissing the Saudi monarch.

Anything will do for carping. Bush starts two wars and they cheer
with pom poms flying. Obama bows and it's an international incident.

It was almost as bad as when he and Michelle fist-bumped. I was getting my
hair done earlier in the year, right after Michelle started the organic
garden. Some ditz was sooooo upset about it, claiming it was "demeaning" to
the office (or to the White House... I couldn't figure out which). She went
on and on about it. Finally, I had enough, told her she was an idiot, and
that the original "victory" gardens saved money and food for our troops in
WWII. They have a long tradition. Boy did it get quiet in there.

ANYTHING to say something negative about the president and his wife.

where people think they're safe to spout off.

Salon isn't the best environment to share confidences. If she was
projecting her voice, she deserved whatever she got.

Expect they take care not to book you on the same day.
