You used foul language, tip—that’s why I deleted that comment. Can’t you express your opinion without bad language?

Um, one problem for ‘the bow’ defenders is that he screwed up the bow.
It’s one thing to be culturally sensitive in Japan (precise bow with hands at sides, sort of at a 45-degree angle), it’s another to deeply screw it up with a 90-degree bow *plus* handshake.
Frankly, I’ve never seen *anyone* bow in Japan like Obama bowed to the emperor.
I think the bow could actually be a metaphor for his entire Presidency thus far — good intentions, screwed-up execution.

Keep it up, and I’ll delete more of your comments.

No problem – I expect TC.com to be blatantly right wing and censor opposing opinion.
I’ll continue to post as I wish for as long as I can, realizing that TC.com wishes to remain the Free Republic of the Tucson area.

Ask nicely, Leftfield. This is my blog, not yours.
Ms. Judy, I’d appreciate it if you’d not use insensitive language like that. It allows other commenters to focus on the specific words you choose to use, and ignore the substance of the points you’re making.
If President Obama is making a specific point, or statement, by bowing, I’m sure he’ll explain it to all of us real soon.

No, left, I’m not trying to rehabilitate Nixon. Frankly, I don’t think HE should have bowed either.

But, I think there’s a big difference between Nixon’s eye-to-eye bow and Obama’s supplication.

Wax on! Wax off!
