Monday Open Thread: Oh, Not Again Edition
by PubliusOn January 28th, President Obama traveled to Tampa, FL. This is how he greeted the mayor of Tampa, an American city the last time we checked. These gratuitous displays of public humility suggest a deeper narcissism than we feared.

Holy Excrement! Is there anybody that Der Schwarze Fuhrer WON'T bow down to?
Oh wait, that's right. He won't bow down to THE CONSTITUTION…
President Pantywaist.
As the POTUS mr. NO-Bama is a joke, a complete idiot. He has to be a laughing stock to the rest of the world.
What is he, nuts, looney toons?
I'm wondering if he's more humble then we think, or is it, he
can't look anyone in the eye?? Me thinks, it's the second one!
Unbelieveable. The more I see this assclown the more I'm convinced that he was well taught by his muslime handlers in Indonesia. I wish that Admiral would've given him a swift kick in the ass.
It was so bad, even the RINO Crist turned away.
The big winner here is Jimmah Peanut. He is no longer the lousiest waste of skin ever to be president of the U
SA. It is now official, the worst president is Burak Hussein O'bow'ma. Can't someone smack this clueless fool upside the head and point out that he has no business whatsoever, bowing to anyone on this planet? Or is he too stupid to teach?
what a wind up doll
He bower to the Mayor??? What the hell is wrong with this man?? Maybe he thinks so little of himself,Nah… that he feels like he must bow to everyone…Nah…maybe he thinks if he does this enough times, someone will bow to him?? LOL!!
or the flag.
Is this guy NUTS?
Agree with all, especially your very last sentence. I think the dude in uniform should kick Obamao's a$$ so hard, he has shoe polish on his breath for a month.
Explain why he came by air to promote railroads? Add that to stupid.
I wish we had a real president instead of the joke we are stuck with.

Is it time to start worrying? You bet.
Or the vast majority of Americans who want SMALLER government and LOWER tax rates.
What will it take to make this bag of doo doo to understand? A US president bows to no one. The only proper display of humility would be for BHO to resign the office.
WOW! Why would anyone do this? I've shaken many hands during my 29 years here on planet earth – never at a job interview, or anywhere else. What is the justification for this?
The POTUS has a severe case of " Bendoverism" .. Maybe she resembled Chairman Moa !!!
He is not bowing, he is trying to look down her blouse. That is my story and I am sticking to it.
Can I volinteer for the job as the official NO-Bama kicker?
Dear Leader Chairman Mao would be proud…!
Why? Why would he do this? Did he forget he was in the US? Did he forget he was in one of our 57 states? Is she Asian, and maybe he was having a flashback? DHasselhoff/John Evans, calling all trolls, why would he continue this nonsense?
I would expect that one of our enemies will be firing a shot over the 'bow' of this rodeo clown. Metaphorically of course.
Mary Mother of God, make it stop!
The job is yours. Thank you for your service.
Did he drop a breath mint again?
he's supposed to be the most powerful man in the world.but all I see is a conceited punk
"What is your bidding, my master." ~Whoooo,Shhhh~
Obama is exposing himself as a racist. He's paying homage to her oriental roots even though she's an American Mayor. Why would he even make her race an issue?
It never ends…the embarrassment we must suffer from those who voted this inexperienced fraud into office.
We can reduce the sting of this glaring mistake in November, but are stuck with the queen bee until 2012.
He does represent the United States after all, he feels he must make himself lower.
Nice. I love the sarcasm!
Is this the action of the puppet master or did one of the strings break when he was greeting the mayor?
Seems to me he is so self-absorbed, self-impressed, etc., that he imagines he is countering the perception he thinks we all have of him of the god-like wonder that is him with as superficial a gesture as a bow, possibly in hopes that no one will figure out what a Narcissistic nitwit he is. He seems to be constantly hoping that WE are all so simpleminded that the APPEARENCE of humility will distract us from the REALITY of his fullness of self.
I heard the trolls were back in school this morning… either elementary or middle, not sure.
that makes my day
Cmon report the truth here. The Orlando paper say's the Mayor told him his fly was down.
It worked for Clinton?
I tried to think of something clever to add – as SO many funny, funny comments have been written to this point – but as I continue to stare at the photo – I just sit here speechless shaking my head.
Give the guy a break! It appears he woke up on the plane with a stiff back. Nothing to see here.
Also, she is Italian not Japanese heritage.
I love the expression on the Naval officers face. He looks totally disgusted, as he should.
Maybe she just has a killer grip
Oh HELL No!
That Der Schwarze Fuhrer is more like a Schwarze Puppen.
Is there any video of this? I made a comment about this picture in a forum and the leftists came out of the woodwork to say "If there is no video, you can't prove he was bowing- he's obviously looking at what she's carrying in her hand."
Personally, I think it's obvious- he's bowing. Again.
But I'd like to really shut the goons up.
pants on the ground! pants on the ground!
The petty little cankers actually said that?
LOL!
IT'S JUST A STUNT ! DON'T YOU SEE WHAT HE'S DOING? BY BOWING TO AN AMERICAN, HE IS TRYING TO DIMINISH THE NEGATIVE IMPACT OF HIS PAST BOWS. IT IS INTENDED TO SEND THE MESSAGE, "SEE AMERICA? NO BIG DEAL. I BOW TO EVEN THE LITTLE AMERICANS. IT'S HOW I GREET ALL PEOPLE. THE OTHER BOWS WERE NOTHING OUT OF THE ORDINARY." THIS IS HOW CONNIVING AND MACHIAVELLIAN THIS WORM WE ELECTED REALLY IS AT HEART. HE IS A CLEVER ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE. HE IS A GREAT DECEIVER.
Another example of stupidity in the Fed. Government.
http://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2010/02/haiti...
If anyone's noticed, he ONLY bows to ethnicities, never to white Europeans. Look at it in that context and it makes sense.
Maybe we could offer Obama $3 or $4 billion to just go away. He would take it, hopefully, and we save the economy – or at least have a better chance to. He's not an alpha male – clearly.
She is of Italian heritage, so we can't explain it away using the Asian excuse.
No, I can't tell you had a hair transplant.
Good point and it may be true.
It is a "cover", so now gibby and axelrod can say…."see he just likes to bow".
BINGO!
What is this inexplicable reflexiveness?
One minute he's channeling Mussolini, surveying his kingdom, chin up, eyes indicating that "you folks have no idea of my secret agenda."
Next minute, he's channeling a serf greeting his lord and master.
I don't get it.
I'm beginning to think that our President has a really bad back.
Anyone know a gooe chiropractor?
not again ! what the hell wrong with our Potus, don't he realize he the most powerful man in the world I guess not
you don't bow to no one not to mayor of city for god sake can someone explained that to him how bout queen Michelle LOL i can't take another day God help us all America!
There may be a simple explanation for this strange behavior. Our dear leader may have a shoe fetish.
He is nothing but a government employee. Why shouldn't he bow to citizens? After all we hired him and we can fire him.
Someone please tell hopey that Tampa is not a muslim country.
That is like saying the dog catcher represents you. Why would you allow a government employee represent you?
The naval commander is wearing a classic whickey, tango, foxtrot look on his face.
Just goes to prove that Barry feels he is lower than whale dung.
The Precedent has one serious shoe fetish. He needs to seek some help.
He was just practicing for his next meeting with King George Soros.
Seriously…why can't we immediately recall this guy? He bows when he should stand (greeting foreign leaders and mayors) and stands arrogantly with thrust-out jaw when he should be humble and presidential (State of the Union). He really doesn't get it. He's completely clueless about what it means to be a real leader and a statesman.
If I was running a business with a clown like this as a CEO, he'd be out – now. Oh yeah, that's right! We do employ him. Time to remove him for incompetence and ineffectiveness.
This is exactly why China, Iran and Russia are doing and saying what ever the hell they want.
They see what we see.
A WEAK IDIOT THAT LOVES HIMSELF INSTEAD OF HIS COUNTRY…….
He's just checking to see if his zipper is open.
You have to give the POTUS credit for actually being transparent. I can see right through his head because it's got a big hole in it.
Love it guys! You're on top of your game today!
I think the man needs a Shoe CZAR. Maybe he has to keep checking to see if he has them on.
How is Obama bowing a sign of "narcissism"?
Eddie Haskel
Lets get this Mayor voted out. This would be one less dictator submissive hobama would have to worship.
you make a good point…
He looks like the doorman at the Hilton and Towers taking her baggage. Maybe he's acting out his inner inferiority complex.
What a weirdo
exaggerated gestures of false humility are another trait of narcissism.
put a thought bubble over his head: "What a douche…"
Considering Pres. Obama’s first year, a point must reached when the world at large knows he’s the one who is bowing, and not the American people.
I with ya there….the only two cultures I can think of that bow are asian and muslim…obviously he ain't asian…
EXCELLENT observation Lisa.
As long as the person Obama is greeting is not white, he will bow.
Not that it matters much, but I wonder what the queen of England is thinking.
What he should be doing is bowing to the American People and apologizing for his first year in office.
http://RightWingStuff.com
He's setting her up for a "snatch & grab"…but I don't see her purse. Did you notice the US Naval Officer seems to be chuckling….If Obama bows, the officer should follow suit…LOL Man, he's 2/3s of the 3 stooges.
Is he actually bowing, or just looking for his bubble gum….
POTUS = DUFUS
Actually, the mayor is Italian. From this picture, it appear that she is of asian descent, but she is not.
thats obowmao.
How.
Did.
This.
Person.
Become.
President?
Another non-issue for disrespectful right wing trolls to blog about. Sad really…
maybe the whole birth certificate things is more innocuous than it appears
he may be hiding it because he is simply from Japanese parentage – i mean with the natural inclination to bow etc…
just saying
could his real surname be Okama or Obamai – Osaka? just saying
I think he fell asleep. but I doubt it.
We if this doesn't set a new low, besides "not bowing" when meeting heads of foreign countries (Sadia Arabi and Japan) now the POTUS is bowning to a mayor.
Whoa, just had an thought, maype the POTUS is having a Pavlovian response to an Alpha Male and has a similar reaction to Alpha Females. Maybe Michelle does wear the pants in the family and has trained him to react at such…you know leather corset, 6" stilettoes, SS Cap, and cat-o-nine tails, begging to get some….you fill in the blanks.
MORON! You shake the hand OR bow. One or the other! Not both!
Check out the new version of "Mmm Mmm Mmm Barack Hussein Obama" at: http://www.myspace.com/rogerweber
How LOW will he go? You'll get a laugh!
To the 62 million who voted for BHO in November 08, have you grown sick and tired of Hope and Change and has the tingle morphed into a dull throbbing pain.
Ya'll were warned loudly, clearly, and repeatedly; but you went on feelings and where did that get US?
HE HAS BEEN TOLD TO RESPECT WOMAN,……… OVER & OVER & OVER & OVER & OVER ….. BY MICHELLE……
YES DEAR……. YES DEAR…… YES DEAR……… HE EVEN BOWED TO PELOSI………. WHAT A JOKE…
Maybe He Has A Foot Fedish………
I absolutely hate this idiot. He's a discrace to this country. I can't understand why he's so stupid. Mabey it's because he's black. If he bowed to me I would knee him in the face. He's an idiot who is trying to bankrupt this country. Well when he's done I think he should take his little family of monkey's and go back to kenya where he's from. IDIOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It keeps most of us sane…
lol did you edit my flag pic?
We if this doesn't set a new low, besides "not bowing" when meeting heads of foreign countries (Saudi Arabia and Japan) now the POTUS is bowning to a mayor.
And Now for Something Completely Different (train of thought):
Whoa, just had an thought, maype the POTUS' bowing reflex is simply a Pavlovian response to when he's confronted by an Alpha Male and he has a similar reaction to an Alpha Female. Maybe Michelle does wear the pants in the family…along with the – you know black leather corset, 6" stilettoes, SS Cap, maniacal grin, and cat-o-nine tails, and has trained him to react at such a manner – begging to get some….you fill in the blanks.
But probably Gibbs will just say the BHO was just checking to make sure that his shoe laces were tied or looking for the penny he dropped.
Thank you–I knew there was a better way of putting what I was saying but I had a half dozen of my long-necked friends over last night and am not up to snuff. The guy's scary, isn't he? I'd be interested to see how tyrannical he gets when he starts meeting some serious frustration.
Or a bubble caption that states, I'm required to slaute this Bozo!
I live right outside Hamlet NC which is one of the main Amtrak hubs between Washington/New York and Florida by Train. I also agree with the guy above, why the hell fly to Florida when you can take a train to drive your point. As far as bowing, I can't explain why the supposedly most powerful man in the free world would bow to a common Mayor of and American city. I've had a Asian dude bow to me once at a restaurant and to me it was very embarrassing. And I believe this is in the Asian culture. Obama doesn't look Asian.
How many people has this man bowed to so far? I bet you would never see Reagan bow to these people. We should take a poll and wager who will be the next person to have the most powerful man in the world bow to them…
I mean, come on, can you imagine having the President bow to you? This Mayor will be able to show her great grand-kids pictures of the President of the USA bowing to her..
Thanks for the correction without some sort of accusation.
Lisa and my mistake is understandable, as you point out.
However, let us still accept our basic premise, the question still remains what is this guy's purpose for bowing.
He wasn't bowing, haters!
OBAMA ASKS TAMPS MAYOR TO CHECK FOR HEAD LICE
http://naturalfake.wordpress.com/2010/02/01/obama...
This is the fourth time now isn't it? I lose count.
As Paul Rahe pointed out several times, BHO is the master of the calculated insult, like with the extended middle finger during the Clinton debate, cheap DVD gifts to Britain, "pig" remarks for Gov. Palin, etc.
Who might he be insulting with repeated bows to foreign leaders? Not sure. But when he goes abroad, he is our representative, isn't he. Is there some calculated message there for the American people? Nothing surprises me with him anymore…Mao ornaments on the WH Christmas tree??
I wonder where Michelle hid his balls this time.
No, just found an image online a while back.
I bet Hussein was praying to Stalin that this picture wouldn't get around. Seriously, I think he's showing signs of an impending meltdown.
HA!!
"Hype and Che"
Actually she just pull the ole one on him: Hey don't look now –your fiy is opened. Works every time hehehehe
That was to be expected. I wondered about that as I don't like it when anyone misrepresents something for political purposes, but it's plain to see this is terribly wrong just by looking at the expression and body language of everyone involved. Hussein suffers from the false humility of the PC disease and he's showing signs of an impending breakdown IMHO.
Good point.
hussein is breaking wind, thats some kind of african/chicago custom thingie.
Yes , I noticed and it does make sence and it's also very scary, AMERICA has been punked.
I'm sure the racist and sexist pandering of the PC disease plays into this display of false humility somehow. If it were a male, black or white, I doubt this would've happened. I don't know – did he bow to the attendees at his 'beer summit'?
Is Kevorkian a chiropractor ?
Thats one thing he would actually be right about.
And yet here you are, a TROLL scrolling through just so you can post a stupid comment about normal people, who expect a president to act like one instead of a puppet.
You are the sad one.
It is not that the President is bowing, so much as it is that the President has no spine and cannot stand up to anything for very long.
Yep, a robot.
Is this grounds for impeachment?
There ya go!
Good point! caps off please
Oh, that's good, Missy.
New drinking game? Obama bows – drink!
Being in the bottom 20 percent doesn't give you any claim to normalcy. You are right wing extremists.
And then there's Barry at a Repeal DADT rally outside of Tampa.
This is starting to look like mental illness. Remember the Roman Columns? The Office Of The President Elect ? He doesn't wear a flag pin, doesn't salute the flag, puts his feet up on the table in the oval office, disrespects the Queen of England Yet bows to Saudi's ,Japanese and now a mayor. Not to mention the endless sneer, looking down his nose at everyone. I don't think he's 'wrapped too tight' I predict even more bizarre behavior followed by the need " to spend more time with his family" 2011 or so
Why don't you people open your eyes and see what is really happening here. He bent down to hear what the woman to his right is telling him while also shaking the mayors hand. It was done on the tarmac so the noise level was probably a little load so he had to bend down, as he is definitely taller then that woman in order to hear her. All of you right wing Beckers need to get a life!

She looks Asian and so it confused the poor idiot.
I think it's a muslim thing. She's big in the backing of CAIR. Maybe he is sending messages to his muslim brotherhood. That wouldn't work with bowing to the Emperor of Japan though so maybe my imagination is getting carried away. Hum.
Presidents don't bow like that. In fact, no one bows like that, except for maybe square dancers. So the moment becomes all about him. "Look at me with my little handshake/bow! Aren't I something?"
Looks like she's looking for his brain.
I came up with that one last week…
My other new ones are "Mao is murder!" and "Got Che-nge?"…
I think Barry should stay at home and let Bo, the dog, visit all these people. At least the dog knows how to shake hands!
Do you really believe he is a Muslim? If so why?
I only drink when he lies. Haven't had a sober day since before the election.
I don’t mean this in any sarcastic way at all….I’m convinced that
Obama is seriously, mentally ill. This is a man that is clearly not working with a full deck. His actions, his policies, everything he has
not done for our national security, should prove without a shadow of a doubt, that these actions are treasonous.
THE DEFINITION OF TREASON:
1. A CRIME THAT UNDERMINES THE OFFENDER’S GOVERNMENT.
2. DISLOYALTY BY VIRTUE OF SUBVERSIVE BEHAVIOR.
3. TREACHERY: AN ACT OF DELIBERATE BETRAYAL.
His actions, and those in his administration, and half the clowns in congress, fit these descriptions. Maybe some brilliant attorneys out there
have already started the lawsuits to have this man/boy impeached.
If we wait till his first term is over, we may not have a country left.
Obama our Eunuch in Chief. I wonder if he sits down when he pees?
Adm. Mullen is looking at The One and thinking, "Oh gawd…, do I really have to work for this nincompoop!"
Obama – subservience we can believe in.
That would be "whiskey, tango, foxtrot." He's probably annoyed because he's afraid his Skidmark in Chief is 'presenting' and expecting something in return. Or possibly he's considering whether or not he can get away with putting a boot up his ass.
The folks over at media mutters don't think it's a big deal. I guess they'll make excuses for anything. Unless he's getting a marshal arts lesson from her, which doesn't seem to be the case . . .
Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't we start a whole country because we (symbolically and literally) wouldn't bow to anyone? Seems I may have read about that somewhere.
He's allegedly only 10% black. Maybe it's the 40% Arab in him.
Maybe the mayor was wearing patent leather shoes.
No, but I think selling out our sovereignty to Interpol might be one.
I don't think he's a Muslim. I think he's the only Christian who celebrates Ramadan, but not Christmas. What's so strange about that?
What a D-bag…
Obamao is deliberately trying to turn this country into permanent majority party rule by getting rid of the middle class and undermining capitalism and the free market system. He has already sold out our sovereignty to Interpol, which means our military can be tried in the World Court. He is sending tax monies from Repub districts to Democrat ones by a rate of 3 to 1 and treating some citizens more equal than others. He is at the beck and call of the union heads and doing their bidding to remain in power. George Soros and Andy Stern are really running the country.
I should have said that in addition to turning our country into permanent majority party rule by giving amnesty to illegals and federalizing and unionizing 111 new agencies as part of his Obamascare plan, he is also trying to usher us into socialism by getting rid of the middle class and undermining capitalism and free market system.
hes trying to teach her how to do the robot dance
What is wrong with Obama? He is a true idiot.
He's not bowing. He just realized that he is ankle deep in shit.
Sorry, the president should bow to any and every citizen he meets. He is just a lowly public employee, not some grand leader.
Except the woman to his right is not looking at him, and does not appear to speaking to him. In any case, it's unlikely she would interrupting his handshake with the mayor to talk to the President.
You can see it in the Navy Flag Officers expression, WTFO.
Could be even longer that we are stuck with this man. Did you read the next story down about his recruitment of radicals out of the high schools? It looks like they are trying to groom the 2012 Obama supporters whilst they are still lowly freshmen in our schools.
Oppp!
There he goes again, President O-BOW-ma
Your an independent, really? When is the last time you voted for a Democrat?
If you watched Obama eat the lunch of the Republicans in Baltimore on Friday you would have witnessed his grasp of the issues. It was a masterful performance.
Luv the WTF? looks on the Mayor and the Admiral.
http://libertyatstake.blogspot.com/
maybe he dropped something else and was bending over to sniff the aroma…. think South Park
what a totally idiotic response…. it must be the canned Axelrod response.
she is not Asian. She is from Sicily
he is not humble… plus bowing down to people when you are the POTUS is not humility. It is the exact opposite.
maybe he has an acute case of wind……..
However, bowing like that is not humility.
If you want humble check out how the Pope behaves…… that there you will find real humility (even if there have been Popes in the past who have not been humble)
do you remember the song about the little wind up toy?
I never knew just what it was and I guess I never will…..
if you have a stiff back you do not bend over like that because the back is usually too sore.
BS to the bad back. If you have a bad back you do not end up in that position.
this is the mayor that signed the decree that CAIR is a friend of the people…. CAIR? Is she freaking serious? What an idiot!!
I wonder if he asked if she wanted a cup of coffee. You know: how do you want it ma'am black or white?
I do agree. It is a really totally stupid comment. Makes no sense at all. How desperately sad for this poor little TROLL.
As a foreigner and observer I agree that he has little grasp of policy, and no grasp of American history… let alone any other kind of history.
your comment does not make any sense
What word really fit here?
Dipstick.
Schmuck.
Ding a ling.
Moonbat.
Does he realize just how weak and stupid he looks?
Lets just call him "Bow-ser, King of the Buffoons".
Hey America! Miss me yet? Betcha do.
Ya gotta have a head to get head lice. Lice don't like coco-nuts.
Problem is there's nothing there to worry about. Michelle keeps them in an Al Gore Commemorative Collectors Edition lockbox.
Definitely. So many reasons, so little . . . leadership to take the reins and do it.
Gotcha, Jack. It's been a long year.
Strange place to reply, did you not like the other explanations that were given, or did mine strike a cord.
Are you the puppet master? or just scared there is one?
Obviously the Pope hasn't learned anything from the (pseud-) Messiah. I think I read that he's going to Oz today or sometime very soon–I'll apologize now–sorry. The presidential menu just gets worse every election cycle but this one took the cake. He makes corpses people look functional.
A liar nevers looks you in the eye.
If there was a bubble caption for the Naval Officer…it would have to be: WTF, I got to salute this Bozo!
Can someone tell this man how stupid & weak he looks PLEASE! The whole World is laughing at him! For the Love of Pete, please make it stop.
On the tar mac, it's says "look here" – she's a mayor for freaking sake!!!
No look closer Ms. Mayor … see.. right there… it says 666 …..
Maybe it was a Presidential Fart?
JackAss of the year!!!!!
I believe Obama may bow to every significant person he meets (or as he feels is necessary) from now on in order to diffuse his first bowing to the Saudi king. That first one was the real one, in my opinion, and he is keeping on bowing because it is supposed to make people think it is just his manner.
But look at Crist with his blue tie. What a schmuck.
C'mon, isn't it obvious? He's not bowing to all these people! The Narcissist in Chief just loves gazing at his own reflection, and the MSM's boot licking keeps them polished to mirror-quality.

Bottom 20%? Aren't liberals only 21% of the country? Right wing extremists? I'm a registered Independent. I'm the one Obamao wants. I saw through his fraud and poser act during the campaign when whenever he was not on his teleprompter he sounded out to lunch. He has little grasp of policy and less of American history. 57 states, anyone?
He thought she was a lobbyist.
He is not bowing out of submission. Under civilized people this is a sign of politeness. Looking at the language used by many poster here, and the calling names, no wonder this is strange to you.
After 8 years of Bush-administration, America woke up.
Hum , nice fantasy. Do you like spanking to. You now, only "experts" can come up with some thing like this.
To the train-fly issue: maybe because he has more then one agenda to absolve. He is still in charge as the president, if you remember, and he is taking his job seriously. I now , Bush have taken his time to react (7 minutes on 9/11 attack to lift his butt, one week on Katrina, no reaction at all on the Wall-street-Disaster until it was to late), but times are changing.
To the bowing: Power doesn't entitle to arrogance and to run around like a peacock.
And yes, there are other country on this planet, with their own culture, there is nothing to be embarrassed about.
Do you now this procedure on own experience?
Nope, not an expert, just the description of one of the Characters, Lady Heather, from "CSI: Crime Scene Investigation"
BTW Michelle Obama, can't hold a candle in to the actress that played Lady Heather.
If you find the language here a bit tough on "The Enlightened One" perhaps you'd be more at home at the Huff Post or Daily Kos, they were even less polite and more descriptive when addressing former President Bush.
Crist, one of the definitions of a Purple RINO, see also: John McCain, Olympia Snow, Susan Collins, and Lindsey Graham
So very true. All above are just used to a president holding hands with the King of the country that was home to 15 out of the 19 hijackers.
the poor little trolls are so utterly ridiculous if that is all they can state. Of course he was bowing….
what an idiotic question.
It is the pretense of being humble. What a total joke. This is not humility. It is just so clownish
I guess by your standards then the 56 signers of the Declaration of Independence qualify as trolls and right wing extremists.
He's practicing for when he meets the new Chinese owners when they foreclose on us for non-payment of the interest on all the money he pissed away. Just think then we'll get a whole new way to budget; one from column A, and two from column "B". Sorry, no column "C", but you do get a fortune cookie that says "Gotcha, roundeyes!"
WTF Obama?!?!?!?!
Look at the Mayors face. You can almost hear her saying, "Oh please Mr. President, not now, not here, please don't bow to me, they're taking pictures! Oh, this is so embarassing!"
I think he's bowing because she appears to be Japanese….he must be a racist,,,because if that's the reason…he's recognizing her 1st as a Japanese and secondly as an American……
ach du lieber himmel, vas ein dumkopf………
From your lips to GOD's ears!!!
We can only hope that the uninformed voters who elected him into office will wake up and see what this man is doing to our country before we become the Socialist States of America.
What a doofus!
Nice try, but we woke up to a bigger nightmare than we went to sleep with. I would rather suffer through another 8 of Bush family rule than another day of O-bow-man. O-bow-man and his cronies have done more of a disservice to our country than any other presidents combined.
How much more of the current Democratic rule can we stand before we are bowing to everyone because they OWN us?
America is supposed to be the land of the free and the home of the brave, not the land of the wimps and the home of socialism.
WHAT ELSE WOULD YOU EXPECT FROM A MUSLIM POS
I am a 20+ year REPUBLICAN, and proud of it. Also, I voted for Bill Clinton in 1993 because I thought he was the best candidate at the time, and in this same vein, I would have gladly voted for O-bow-man if he would have been the best candidate. He wasn't!!
I now vote entire Republican party line based on the single philosophy that THE WORST REPUBLICAN IS STILL BETTER THAN THE BEST DEMOCRAT!
BTW, the only thing this man has a grasp on is the American People's wallets!
Word in the Rotunda has it that the POTUS also bows to his Chief of Staff, in private.
And now, because of these gullible voters, we can all hope we have change left when he is gone.
Oops, he must have dropped his contact lens again….
Good luck finding it… magnifying glass and tweezers someone?
He's not bowing, he's checking his fly because he misunderstood her comment,, "It's getting cold down south.".
We can fire him in the next election, but that takes too long. I vote we impeach him, it's faster!
He can't help it. Michelle has him trained to do that to her.
This little kid is really pitiful…as stated and proven many times – give a fool enough rope and he will hang himself. Hey, throw in some more, pile it ON!!! We ARE the laughing stock of the world, and it is very sad that this little scrawny cigarette-smoking ttwerp, pushing 'healthkill'' and abortion is in our government to begin with. He was pushed to the front by our mentally challenged minority group of entitlement receivers across this land, along with the coerced elderly and fraud votes. It is not difficult to understand WHY he keeps shoveling more benefits and money their way, because he is of that culture of know-nothing, do-nothing, take-anything you got! Just a clan of bums! Wipe out the UNEARNED entitlements and the illegal immigrants, and our deficit goes to ZERO!!!
Can't comment right now, I need to go PUKE ! Ok now, He's so respectful and sweet to everyone—uh isn't that how Ted Bundy was able to capture his victims???? just wondering…..
Refer to William March column in Tampa Tribune, June 11, 2009: "Iorio has claimed "CAIR Day" each day since 2005". The story goes on to say she will discontinue the practice of recognizing "CAIR DAY". You think the natives were sending smoke signals to he honorable mayor and she reconsidered rather than look for other employment?
James
Sorry, should read each fall. OOOOOPS!
James
hmmmmmm…… I guess he is thanking her
“By virtue of the authority vested in me as mayor of the city of Tampa, I do hereby proclaim November 15, 2008, as ‘Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) Day’ in the city of Tampa, Florida.”
Tha't what muslims do, they bow. You don't really expect them to look you in the eye and try to sell all that stuff do you.
Ha! Now that I think about it I originally got it online as well. Prob grabbed the same pic. See ya~
Obviously this Kenyan douche-bag with rather large ears is simply paying homage to his superiors, as he should.
Did ya hear the mayor on Fox this AM? He is such a wonderful kind man ….
whatever – so lets spend millions to get from tampa to orlando – WTH ????
Surely this is photoshopped!
Jeff, Your response has to be the funniest; however, after I am done laughing I'll return to my state of "2012 CANT COME SOON ENOUGH". By the way – would love to see him BOWING TO SARAH PALIN!
I like your comment…but 57 states??? Ummmmmmmmm………
I think he has his long Johns buttoned wrong
Actually the teleprompter (out of picture) fell over again after a brief gust of wind from that carbon-free Air Force 747 jet Nobama flies all over the globe in, so he is really just reading his lines for the greeting from the ground.
Actually I may take that job myself. Not only do I admire her position on most issues, she is really a good looking woman.
What ties does this woman have to the Muslim religion??? Why does he bow??? Official act by mayor iorio:
"By virtue of the authority vested in me as mayor of the city of Tampa, I do hereby proclaim November 15, 2008, as ‘Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) Day’ in the city of Tampa, Florida.” — Mayor Pam Iorio."
Is the the evidence of deep seated Muslim beliefs that obama so adamantly denies? democrats better wake up???
What about him putting his left hand over his heart. In eastern religions, of which Muslim originates, the left hand is the hand of cursing. Is he cursing the USA and the constitution and all that it and our flag stand for??? or is he just an idiot?
wake up america!!! speak up america!!! don't lose what our forefathers fought and died to give us
Reckon the bow has any association with this from the Mayor? http://www.americansagainsthate.org/Mayor_Iorio_C...
ACORN
Recall? What a great idea! Let's all say he was made by Toyota!
Is he clicking his boot heels together when he does these bows ..a la Third Reich ….
Let's not be racist about this. After all, Reid, Pelosi and Biden are idiots all and they are WHITE!
To One and All,
Someone said we have to put up with this low life (no pun intended, ha!) until 2012, well, I disagree. Please subscribe to this guy, he's great and there is a lot to be said about being great, unlike our bowing puppet master:
Floyd Brown (ImpeachObama@floydbrownreport-news.com)
This guy is so obnoxious, he would bow to a fire hydrant if he thought it would make him look good!
Obama's goal is to systematically destroy our country and one of his methods is to destroy the office of president. Nooo president has ever bowed to any person; bowing is not the correct behavior of any leader and it only shows a sign of servility. Clearly, if Obama does this enough to the people he meets, the world will (correctly) see him — as the president — to be nothing more than a boot licking wimp and so will act accordingly. How seriously can an enemy country take us when our own president acts like some cowering fool.
When a new president takes office in 2012, God willing, he/she will have the unenviable task of trying to undo the damage to the office of president that Obama has created.
He's just trying to start a new thing. That Heil Hitler hand salute has too much of a bad rap.
Remember — that's how many Obama thinks we have!
I only said she looks Asian.
She's not from Sicily.
So much for being an independent… welcome to the Republican party.
How very disgraceful and disrespectful you all are.
and when you bend to listen, you LEAN….I don't see him leaning, just bending. Maybe if you LEANED a little to the left you might HEAR what all of us right wing AMERICANS are trying to tell you above all the noise of the chatter!
Does anyone recall this clown offering his hand to foreign dignitaries and they not even shaking his hand? What a hoot!!!
What a moron! He wants to appear humble….. That's false humility. Maybe he heard someone say " all those who hate the U.S. Constitution bow to oppose it" He has become the freak and entertainment of the world. I can almost hear everyone laughing.
