This makes me really proud of my President.
No President Has Ever Bowed to a Foreign Leader…Until Now
President Barack Obama’s bow to the Japanese emperor Saturday following his bow to the Saudi Arabian monarch in April is creating a humiliating new precedent. Until Obama, no president of the United States in the more than 230 years since the country was founded in 1776 had ever bowed to a member of royalty.
Maybe we need to get used to this whole bowing thing. They way Obama is selling out the United States, who knows, we might be forced to bow to foreigners someday. At least our president is setting a good example of submission for all us Americans to follow.

Okay, so I’ll bite. What’s the big deal if a president bows to royalty or not? Isn’t it just showing a form of respect? I know it’s not one of our customs in the USA, but wasn’t Obama bowing on their soil anyway? Am I missing something here? Please correct me if that’s the case. I certainly don’t defend president Obama very often, but c’mon, what’s the big deal?

In the bigger scope of things, I would say I am proud of our president. At least when compared with most of the other world leaders. As a republican though, I am not too pleased at all. I am certainly not proud of many of the “big government” and “anti-Christianity” moves he has been implementing. Furtermore, I won’t be very proud of President Obama when I have to tell my kids why they are starting out their adult lives so far in debt.
