On his trip to Cambodia, a country he claimed didn't deserve a visit due to its strongman government, first lady Bun Rany greeted Obama with a traditional "sampeah" pressed-hands greeting reserved for servants, a little dig that was probably lost on him but not to Asians.
LOL! The Cambodian First Lady pwned nobama.

This is a typical Buddhist Greeting:
Generally, two palms together at the heart level, and with head lean forward as though giving a small bow or nod (further the body lean forward the more respect you are displaying.)
Note: she is bowing also. If you don’t know any Buddhists and don’t know what’s going on, ask around.
This is not the same as what Obama did in Saudi.
Don’t we have something else of substance to get on him about?
Happy Thanksgiving!

"But he also undermined his supposed democracy mission, first by telling the Burmese leaders that he too wished he could govern without opposition, calling into question whether he himself believed in the representative government he was advocating."
Sounds like the mask more than slipped. He took it off completely for a foreign audience.

My apologies. Here's the pic that belongs in reply #1:
Notice that nobama parrots the demeaning gesture back to her. LOL! Complete idiot.

Has any of his foreign trips produced anything for this country? I can’t think of anything.

Deceptive headline, no style either.

Obama repeatedly referred to the country's Nobel Peace Prize-winning leader Aung San Suu Kyi as Aung Yan Suu Kyi, an astonishing error given her global fame. What is astonishing is he pronounced every part of her name incorrectly, including the only part "san" that is pronounced phonetically, thereby achieving a 100% error rate.

The Asians deserve better and so do the Americans
Do the majority of the American electorate that are fools and freeloaders really care?
That's the real problem.

The schmuck doesn't know how to do substance- substances perhaps, but not substance.
