The US president is subservient to his international bankster overloads, as are all non-royal heads of state.

What you're saying is Bush can bow to anyone, can hold hands with men, even kiss them on the lips, and grope a female head of state at a meeting - and it's ALL OK ! with you.

Think before you answer.

He and the W.H. Are lying. The question is " why "?

So Obama bowed to the Saudi King just to drive you crazy? Isn't that just a mite self-centered?

Why do you think he did, and why is the W.H. lying that it was NOT a bow.

It clearly was.

I can't believe I called you on something and you proved me wrong. Uh, guess it's time to go on another grammatical attack to try to deflect.

For the record: I think it was a bow, and I think it was a simple protocol gaffe. Like Bush bowing to the Pope... unless maybe Bush was really saying "DOOOOD! Check out that Papal RING!" And the WH would of course deny it bc they don't like to admit mistakes.

Really, don't you have anything ELSE to complain about? Why don't you complain about Obama shoveling money at the rich? Or claiming "State Secrets" on Bush's wiretapping? You're making a rather large issue out of nothing, and dreaming up all sorts of conspiracies about something that doesn't friggn' matter.

There's been plenty to complain about. I'm not making a big deal about it, the W.H. made a big deal out of it, for no damn reason.

Really, you're the only one making a big deal out of it.

For 8 yrs, all we heard about was what a joke we were to the rest of the world, and now suddenly, when Barry's in office, it's " Oh, give it a rest already, move on, what does it matter ? " .

For eight years, we were a joke to the rest of the world, and all we heard when that idiot cowboy was in office was "Oh, give it a rest already, move on, what does it matter? He never lied, they had WMD, they were an imminent threat, it wasn't that urgent that we invade, except for when it WAS that urgent..."

Returning the bust of Winston Churchill, a GIFT , back to England.

---

Yes, I suppose he should have bowed to the bust of Churchill. Oh, wait... no, then you'd have been crying about that, too. And if you're not crying about it, why do you keep bringing it up? It obviously means a great deal to you.

Giving the PM of England crappy gifts from Freakin' Wal-Mart, that don't even WORK over there.

---

Yup, should've given him a bust of Churchill! Now THAT would be a gift he'd appreciate! And we would have had an extra one just lying around, if only they hadn't sent it back... Oh crap - now I've given you something ELSE to whine about! "Why'd they give it back?! They could have re-gifted it!"

Wondering how something is said in " Austrian ". There is no ' Austrian' language. Had Bush said that, he'd been lampooned all over the late night talk show circuit for a damn WEEK!

---

THAT is damned funny. Hadn't heard that one. Maybe it was part of Obama's "strategery" to make a funny. :)

Sounding like a candy ass in telling N.Korea not to launch its missile/rocket, or else it'll get a stern finger wagging from the "International community". N. Korea launches its rocket anyways.

---

Goddamned right! No way in hell would they have DARED to launch any of their missiles while Bush was in office. And there's no WAY they'd have ever developed and tested a nuclear device while BUSH was in office! Hell no, they wouldn't. We wouldn't have stood for it, not for a moment. We - Oh... Never mind.

Not even commenting on the 'criminal' activity that's occurring on the high seas. 200 yrs ago, we knew how to deal w/ such thugs, as pirates were regarded as 'Enemies to all humanity'. Now ? Just run of the mill, ho hum , garden variety criminals. Barry won't even TALK about them, he's so unconcerned.

This is what caught my eye - he was leaning somewhere between the two men. In fact, the king had to turn to his right (an action completed in this picture - originally the king was facing at right angles to Obama's 'greeting'.). It looks awkward to me - not like it was directed at the king at all.

Otherwise we'll quite naturally ask - why didn't you complain when Bush did it ?

It'll save us all a lot of time.

"Since 2005, though, pirates have threatened and seized many ships. A list of ships attacked by Somali pirates since that time is catalogued." WIKI

Now, maybe it's just me, but I remember Bush being president in 2005, 2006, 2007 AND 2008.

And what did he say about Somali pirates ? Well, in December 2008, just as he was about to leave office (and four years after it became a problem), the administration issued a 14 page blueprint.

Now, THAT is a man of action !
