US President Barrack Hussein Obama bowed deep down before King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia at the G20 Summit in London. While meeting of G20 has given Barrack Hussein Obama the opportunity to speak with leaders of other economically strong or rising countries, he only bowed to Saudi King Abdullah like that. Not even British Queen Elizabeth II got a bow this deep from Obama.
I understand the hate mail I keep getting from all of you nice people who are offended by me constantly bashing on Barack Obama. I swear I spent whole day today trying to find something positive to write about him, but it was all in vain. From my standpoint – as a Canadian who is still subject to British Queen, I understand what bows to the royalties mean. However from reactions of Americans, I understand this is unacceptable. Americans fought in the American Revolution to set themselves free from the British monarchy – so they don’t have to bow to the kings and queens. Things have certainly changed since American revolution and common courtesy is not necessarily a bad thing. So if Barack Obama bows a little before the Queen Elizabeth II, no Americans would get outraged. But when he only mimics the bow with her and then goes deep down to bow before Saudi King Abdullah – what the heck is that all about? Perhaps if British queen started executing her own people in the middle of public square by decapitation with a sword – perhaps then Barrack Hussein Obama would deem her worthy a deep bow like he deems Saudi King Abdullah worthy of it.
Former US president Bill Clinton said in 1994 when contemplating bowing to the emperor of Japan:
Canadians still bow to England’s Queen; so do Australians. Americans shake hands. If not to stand eye-to-eye with royalty, what else were 1776 and all that about?
Yep. Nothing’s changed. Whether US president’s name is Barack Hussein Obama or George Walker Bush, they are all the same and all big buddies with the Saudis. Remember the outrage the picture of George Bush holding hands with King of Saudi Arabia stirred?
Yeah… Are the same people who have been outraged over this affection towards Saudi Kings going to demonstrate the same outrage towards Barack Hussein Obama for his bow to Saudi King Abdullah? Chirp, chirp, chirp… Yeah, just as I thought!
While the picture of Barrack Hussein Obama Bowing to Saudi King Abdullah posted above doesn’t quite look like a bow, it’s pretty apparent form the video below.

For the record, the first thing I said walking out of Fahrenheit 911, as a certified liberal, was that the montage of Bush holding hands with various Saudis was despicable. I don’t know of any remotely serious people on the left who are bothered by that picture. Meanwhile, the response to Obama’s bow is deafening. I guess no one’s noticed that Bush did the same thing as President – http://alchemytoday.com/2009/04/03/obamas-bow-is-bushs-bow/
You asked for a comment, here’s what i’ve got.
“What’s wrong with this picture? Americans do not bow to royalty. In my view, when the royal is the ruling tyrant of a despotic regime, the wrong is compounded. Putting aside the breach of American protocol, it is akin to Jimmy Carter succumbing to Brezhnev’s infamous kiss at the signing of the arms accord in Vienna in 1979. It is a disgrace. As in Carter’s case, Obama’s supplicant attitude signifies his spirit. In this respect I distinguish it from George Bush’s otherwise embarrasing handholding with the the king.”
Well, I agree with you on one point, and it is of very high importance to me.
As a Muslim, I will never bow to any person even the Prophet Mohamed (Peace Be Upon Him), not because I don’t respect him, but simply BECAUSE HE WOULD NOT LIKE ME TO BOW TO HIM.
We Muslims, we bow only to Allah.
