A few days ago, B.E.V. did give a kudo's nod towards Obama for doing the 'right thing'. Kinda. While we here in the USA have had our tither over the Obama bow, most of us feeling he did it again to 'apologize' for America being the Super Power in the World.....by default, not by choice as most of us see and know it to be. Bowing to a Japanese is acceptable.....but what Obama did was not in the manner he did it. Again, B.E.V. says he should've consulted Hillary first....but that's another story as we all know.
What was brought to my attention a few minutes ago was the reaction in Japan. The Japanese were totally embarrassed and did not print nor show that deep bow on their front pages. What was shown mostly was the short head nod by Obama, again, why out of protocol or tradition.
So, what was it dear reader....another example of the lack of experience showing, the over self confidence, or rules for radicals being applied to another of America's long time allies in order to destroy decades/years of friendship.
