It amazes me how some people can be when certain things occur. The above photo is from President Obama's trip to Asia. In the photo he is bowing while shaking hands with the Japanese emporer. As some if not most of you might know, bowing is a sign of respect in the Japanese culture and is something that is done when talking to your boss or when CEO's of different companies meet each other. Basically, it's a hightened form of "Pleased to meet you."
Why is it that the conservatives are getting thier underwear in a bunch over something as simple as this? Also, why is Fox putting so much emphasis on this? Hey guys, remember that recession that is happening? Why don't you go do something about that rather than spend time criticizing the President for showing his fellow man some respect? As can be seen, the Emporer is bowing back, but since he is a tad older he can't bend as far.
Did he disrespect America? I don't think so. But the media really can cover better things. Now excuse me while I go and take back my country from being invaded by Canada
