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)

Obama is nothing more than a rank amateur idealist.

I was hoping he’d go and they’d keep him.

Just wait until the PM’s movies-on-dvds [wrong format] arrive and the Emperor gets an iPod of Obama’s greatest speeches.

That’ll smooth things over.

I’m not sure what this change in plans entails, but I understood that the main purpose of this trip was to take a vacation in Indonesia, where he expected to be worshipped by all the Obama worshippers there.

Instead, there were photos yesterday of Muslim Indonesians protesting the visit by jumping up and down on portraits of Obama that they had put on the ground.

In other words, the standard bottom-of-the-shoe Muslim insult. I don’t think he was expecting that, narcissist that he is. He was expecting to be idolized and worshipped by his Indonesian buddies.

The shoe shine boy in the White House was raised by parents/grandparents who came from the lowest rungs of the social ladder. Then he was exposed to Chicago gangster-politics. Do you really expect him to exhibit class and grace? Those two virtues are foreign to him.

What do you expect from an idiot who thinks an iPod is an appropriate gift for the Queen of England?
