I don't know why this is a 'shock' to the general public as this is only customary behavior between two Muslims, especially when one of them is a king and leader of millions of other Muslims.
Did you ever wonder what training Obama got in his first 14 years in Kenya, living with Muslims and being taught by Muslims? Why would anyone think Obama would become a Christian while all of his childhood, and most of his adult life, was infected with Muslim doctrine?
If he was a real Christian, why would he sit through twenty years of Rev. Wright's sermons of hate and bigotry? And what about all those hoards of sobbing and fainting worshipers? Oh, wait, I guess when you sit in the front pew of the church of Obama you don't have to have any thoughts about reality, only thoughts that fit the agenda that is in the hymnal or the sermon from preacher. You will happily, willing and mindlessly do or say anything that you are told. It's so easy and makes live simple and uncomplicated.
Soldiers of Marxist socialism. The grave yards of history are full of them. But the grave yards of history are also full of those that put them there.
Keep the faith - many are joining the battle.
Obama Bow to Saudi King Labeled 'Shocking'
Wednesday, April 8, 2009
By: Jim Meyers
In what's been called a "shocking display of fealty to a foreign potentate," President Barack Obama bowed to the King of Saudi Arabia at the Group of 20 summit meeting in London.
"The bow was an extraordinary protocol violation," The Washington Times observed in an editorial on Tuesday.
"Such an act is a traditional obeisance befitting a king's subjects, not his peer. There is no precedent for U.S. presidents bowing to Saudi or any other royals," the editorial said.
Obama offered King Abdullah a deep and prolonged bow from the waist when he met him at the summit, which brought together the leaders of the world’s largest economies on April 2.
The story about Obama’s unusual gesture has gotten scant media coverage in the United States, but a Spanish TV broadcast was picked up on blogs and has created an Internet stir.
"No Americans of any station are required to bow to royalty," the Times stated. "It is one of the pillars of American exceptionalism that our country rejected traditional caste divisions."
The Times editorial also opined that Obama’s bow "to the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques does not help his image with those who believe he is secretly a Muslim, and why he chose to bow only to the Saudi king and not to any other royal remains unexplained."
For instance, Obama did not bow to Queen Elizabeth when he first met her last week in London. Subjects of the crown may bow to the monarch but are not required to do so.
First lady Michelle Obama also broke protocol during the Obamas’ trip abroad when she put her hand on the queen’s back. The move caused a bit of tempest in the British press, but was quelled when the queen put her hand on Michelle in what a Buckingham Palace spokesman described as a "mutual and spontaneous display of affection and appreciation."
