First, that idiotic Obama Imperial "bow" four months ago in Tokyo, now another abject slap across the face of critical Asia by official Washington D.C. (Obama Administration) by a bunch of absolutely useless and hopeless international, diplomatic OAFS.

The Japanese story (per link) is short but actually good. Slams Gibbs and their attitude, and also then, humorously so, gets into good detail for the Japanese people about Obama not being so wildly popular in the United States anymore.

No joke, this is the closing paragraph, written as if they are breaking the news to the Japanese slowly somehow that Icarus has fallen from the sky...which will surprise so many Japanese as they had this Obama out as a God for many months on end both in mainstream Japanese press and mainstream foreign press on which the Japan press often uncritically fed.

Folks, you cannot make this stuff up. They even mention right in the end that Barack Obama now seems to be avoiding the American Press, even more vigorously so than his predecessor, George W. Bush - due to Obama's plummeting public support. (Paraphrasing synopsis-wise in English from the original Japanese)

Thank you for this!

Well hell the Japanese are right.Obama Is Insulting.They're not lying.

[Rocky]

I guess on his upcoming Asia trip, he will have to bow more deeply. In his sarong. Perhaps he should touch his lips to the floor in abject humility and submission.

[fatnotlazy]

He’s just alienating everyone now, isn’t he?

When Obama was elected, Europe fawned all over him. Lately, they haven’t. I think they figured out what a fraud he is. Too bad, more Americans haven’t.

[SmartInsight]

Thanks for translating and posting this.

Obama was supposed to “make the world love us”, and instead he is alienating our friends and makes a laughing stock of the US to our enemies.

[Blood of Tyrants]

He TWITTERED his change in plans instead of having the ambassador to Japan personally deliver his change of itinerary? Jeez, I am an ignorant gaijin and even I know how insulting this is. It is worse than sending the Queen of England DVD’s as a present.

But the world is going to love us if we elect a bi-racial, 1/2 Christian/ 1/2 muslim socialist pig.

[MizSterious]

So glad you report on some of the foreign press, AIT. Most of our press, including some on Fox, still write as though they think the universe revolves around Obama.

Live and learn...

[muawiyah]

They’d eventually find out that Obama despises Asians ~ something from his childhood no doubt.

Drudge might be interested in this.

[Doogle]

...we gotta listen to him everyday, they should be happy they got a small reprieve.

[b4its2late]

I expected no less of this group so the Japanese should not be surprised either, but I’m glad they are calling them out on it.

[Hoodat]

But . . . but Obama promised to restore respect for America throughout the world.

[McGruff]

hubris noun. Overbearing pride or presumption; arrogance:

[PLD]

The whole world is now finding out what we knew all along these Idiots are stupid..

[Marty62]

Do the Japanese understand that we have a bunch of ideologues running the U.S. right now. They are crass, uneducated, and certainly have NO respect for other cultures.

Zeros last trip known as the Bow campaign should have given them a clue as to the trailer trash mentality is in the WH.

[Carley]

Get in line.

Obamao has managed to insult every last one of our allies.

His love affair with muslim countries is fraying as well.

[MinuteGal]

AIT....thanks for the report. I don't know what we would do without the incisive news and updates you report from your FReeper outpost in Japan.

Wow, Free Republic is where it's at!
