Don’t worry, he just dropped his basketball.....it musta rolled under the king’s robes....

And we’re only a couple of months into Junior’s fantasy camp.

Heaven help us.

Okay, so I am just signing in and found this thread.

First, I must ask, what Obama did, the bowing and kissing of the ring (he did kiss the guy’s ring, right?) has NEVER been done before? been done by an American president, or any American official for that matter?

If not, this will just infuriate the American people. This should soon be on Drudge then all over Fox news at best.

How on earth could Obama have been so mistaken? If it was intentional, why on earth would he do it?

This is just the worst....

Well well well. Looky there Barry is a sunni dog.

“don’t heads of state only do that to other heads of state at the moment of the unconditional surrender of their country?”

DING, DING, DING!!!
We have a winner, folks!!!

[Girlene]

I take it as a sign of Submission, 4wb.

[Beckwith]

It looks like one and I say we exploit it to the hilt.

Best comment in the thread.

Remember, Alinsky's Rule 5: "Ridicule is man's most potent weapon."

There is no defense. It's irrational. It's infuriating. It also works as a key pressure point to force the enemy into concessions.

Harry Obama with his own tactics.

I’ll have to look at the video at home. Do they have anyone competent in the protocol office??

Who the hell is running the protocol office, Sunny Davis?

Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, that's who...

The O' is just making some Change in our "customs". Its the change we all have been hoping for.

[manc]

seems not

he and his wife have acted with such ignorance and they have showed they have no class.

they have slapped our best ally in the face while this man nearly gets on his knees.

I wonder if the media will report this and I hope Drudge has this up

Well, let's ridicule Obama then....

Drudge isn't touching it.

[Beckwith]

I mean it sure looks like he’s going down.

He'll do that tonight. It's frowned upon at a formal event.

[Beckwith]

I wonder why no other pics of this, “bow or greet” (Getty and AP captions), anywhere?

There's a video out there. Go find it.

[Electric Graffiti]

“Are there any other views that show it clearly?”

Not that I’ve seen.

[YourAdHere]

Bow down before the one you serve. You’re going to get what you deserve.

[plangent]

Since Zero is the representative of the American people, he bowed and kissed for you, also.

I wonder if there is video of Merkle, Brown Sarkozy, etc kissing the ring. Haven’t seen it yet.
