Go ahead Obamites, defend this one-- tell me it's not a bow like you did a few months ago.  Or just go on about how it's not important as long as it makes the world "like" us (or Obama).

You're a fucking retard.  At least he's not circling first base with a tyrant.

I know it's silly, but I can't help but wonder what would happen if a President punched the Emperor after shouting "Remember Pearl Harbor!" at him.

"Jap"?  Might as well put "nigger" in the title, too.
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.
-J. R. R. Tolkien

What an idiot.  Everyone knows the proper protocol when meeting Japanese leaders is to vomit upon them.

Maybe he's just bowing so that he can more easily look the emperor in the face. The dude does just barely come up to Obama's belt.
My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

I usually don't care much about symbolism, but as head of state he should not bow to other head of states.
