white "people" are criminally insane that's why they can not respect and get confused when others are respectful ...don't worry humans their waking you up to this reality slowly but surely ...now what are we going to do about it?
I'm pretty sure its just part of their culture. Its how they show respect, similar to how we shake hands and look one another in the eye. America is so damn uneducated, its a fucking shame and makes me mad. Obama knows what he's doing. Leave him alone. Shiiitt!
Streets are nice rudeness excluded off with that we should all say no to any sponser that cant say Rudetube is rong wite red blue black we want to get rid of that CHASH BULLY. His time taints ares not enough to be effective in these dark ages. Serial killers mind sets might be due to TV induced illness and Derick Bird proved that these weapons exist !NRA need a much Tighter reige over there weapons!
It's weird how he bows to people that are NOT helping with there little missions but when it comes to people who are he has no courtesy this is the reason i am not joining british army, atleast until they stop helping you yanks out.
Kevin Jennings praised Harry Hay, the founder of the Mattachine Society. Harry Hay was one of the early leaders in Gay rights and advocacy. Kevin Jennings was praising his early work in Gay rights, not NAMbLA.
It may be customary to bow in Japan, but it is not customary for American Presidents. This is established precedent for a couple plus hundred years.
Also, the bow that Obama made was not the proper kind of bow for the situation. It was far too deep and would more appropriately be used when the person bowing is abjectly apologizing or even groveling.
The Japanese find the whole incident embarrassing and Japanese media have suppressed the photos and videos of the bow.
Did they attack you or anyone you know on Pearl Harbor?
Besides we got them back worse than what they did to us. On Pearl Harbor 2350 Americans and soldiers died. Which is terrible don't get me wrong. My regards go to their families, but the Nuclear bombs dropped on hiroshima and Nagasaki had a death toll of 140,000 people(mostly civilians) in Hiroshima and 80,000 people(mostly civilians) in Nagasaki. IMO mankind is the most cruel and barbaric creator on God's green earth.
All of you idiots asking why the Chinese and other Asian leaders didn't bow were obviously asleep during world history class. Most Asian nations are still bitter about what Japan did during the war and with just cause in many situations. I'm surprised that representatives of the South Korean or Chinese governments woulld even be in the same room as the emperor.
ROFL The President Of China, The President of Vietnam, the President of South Korea all greeted the Emperor with a handshake, but Our President bows like a complete moron. If anymore people say he did it cause in the Asian culture you do it, you are retarded,..cause why didn't the Chinese, South Korean, Vietnamese and many other Asian countries bow. THEY ALL SHOOK HANDS ONLY. Never leave each others eye sight. Obama breaks both rules...he's a dog basically, lesser then the Emperor.
So what do you think Obama was saying when he bowed, what was the significance? Was there an underlying meaning or was it just a social faux-pax that spiteful people who are angry they couldn't steal and fake this election are blowing out of proportion because the opposing party is now in control. You fucking people make me sick, it's not about what's better for the country, it's about who's side is going to win every years. Look at what the republicans have done to our economy and life...
State Dept Guildelines state US Presidents never bow to anyone. All Heads of State are equal. What do you think wars are fought over. Do we bow to the German Fuher? No, we don't bow to anyone cause we crushed Hitlers world wide advances. If we lost, you would be bowing to our German Fuher you get it!
Out of 46 Heads of State only 1 person bowed, President Obama....not any of the President China, South Korean, Vietnam, etc, none of them bowed and they are ASIAN!
Obama love clouds your vision. You even argue when 46 people do something and Obama does the wrong thing. We have video of each Head of State doing it, and you still agrue with facts..with a video right in front of your eyes...lolllllllllllllllllll
Answer my question. What was the significance of the bow? Was it something more than an awkward misunderstanding of cultures or was there some ACTUAL SIGNIFICANCE to the gesture. What was so horrible and shameful of it all? You say my love for Oboma clouds my vision, you know nothing of where I stand politically. You only know that I'm defending him over this specific incidence. (contd.)
"Was it something more than an awkward misunderstanding of cultures or was there some ACTUAL SIGNIFICANCE to the gesture. Are you asking physical about the bow? If so, first of all it's not how you bow even. He's completely Embarassed everyone there do you realize the Emperor was embarassed.YOU DONT CARE THOUGH, you only love Obama. Do you know the biggest Japanese Newspaper didn't print the photo of Obama. Why you might ask? They said it made him look weak...Now tell me Japan is wrong too.
lol, so basically how he acts is his personal life is more important to you than how he runs the country, :) I think you've proved my point. This things you've listed are nowhere close to the blunders Bush had, and beyond that, do not in any way affect how he has ran the country and started to clean up the shards of a democracy your people destroyed. I consider this resentment the retaliation of knowing your time is up and someone is correcting the mistakes YOUR PEOPLE made.
You are a Bush hater and Obama love come on, you think we are 10 years old. You don't even remember past presidents probably. Just repeat Bush Bad, Obama good.
You back Obama up without defending 1 thing I said, cause that's just it, you're just a sheep that follows Obamas command. The second someone says something bad about Obama, it's what did Bush do, well Bush did this..lollllll You got caught, you're overcooked, you're fried.
(contd.) I'd say that it's your will to "win" over the other party that clouds your judgment, it's not about whats right or wrong for the American people, it's about which side can look the best at the next election. You take something so fucking insignificant and run for the hills because that's all you got. This whole theasco is beyond transparent. You are the cancer in our government system, people like you are the reason we will never be as great as some would love to believe we are.
4. Obama bows to Japanese Emperor embarassing the Japan and US. It embarassed Japan worse says Japanese headlines across the country. They wanted a strong President...also he actually touches the Emperor which you are never supposed to do..so anyone talking respect Obama nearly did the worst sign of disrespect you could do. That of couse came after Mrs. Obama patted the Queen of England on the back....she was scolded bigtime for doing that, I'm sure you didn't read any of this.
BTW, you automatically assumed that my defending this man made me an Obama nut... I'm listed as independent and I did not vote for Obama for this election. The world is not all-or-nothing, it's not about "Oboma is not in my party, therefor he is always wrong." This is why you people have done so much damage to the country, there is no temperance of ideas or balance. You hop on a bandwagon and ride it till it pulls the country off of a cliff. Sickening... the stupidity is fucking sickening.
The fact that you think I said, anywhere in my previous comments, that I voted for Obama lets me know you did not even read what I typed. I said quite the opposite...That response seemed really strange too, almost prepared. Like you got it from someone else...
Stop trying to fight the other team and think about whats best for your country. Rationalize, and compare what damage your party has done to America in the 8 years of Bush, and the job the person who took over was taking on. (contd.)
@kajes5 kajes5 Obama has a czar in charge of school safety, this czar wrote an introduction to a book that was written by the founder of NAMBLA, Nambla thinks it is ok to have sex with a child as young as 6 months, this is not a joke, and it is very easy to check out
philly when you actually dig just a little bit deeper you find out that Kevin Jennings did not write the forward for a book written by the founder of NAMbLA.
You have two completely different stories interwoven into what we call sensational reporting. Not fact based reporting.
Mr Jennings wrote the forward for a book called "Queering Elementary Education:Advancing the Dialogue on Sexualities and Schooling. A book decrying anti-gay violence
(contd.) Do you honestly feel this man is doing a far worse job? You talk about others being blinded, I think you yourself are speaking like a person who is not seeing clearly.
hahaha omg! You are about to pass out aren't you? hahahaha! I can SEE the progression! This is even funnier than watching David Hasselhoff downing a hamburger!
You are a complete moron who can't answer one question. Why did the Chinese President Jintao shake hands with him, and didn't even bow? You're love for Obama clouds your mind. Turn on the light, turn MSNBC off.
I understand you hate Obama and all, but you're going to have to find better things than bows and dijon hamburgers to change anyone's mind about anything.
Goofy, Not one Asian Leader bowed to the Emperor..I guess Obama is more Asian and more respectful then all the other Leaders then 46 to be exact.. All shook hands except Obama..lollllll Man you are too funny, Obama lovers are so easy to agrue with, they just say Obama good, you bad...lol
Wow, dude, when did I even say I like Obama? I think YOUR (the correct way) hate for Obama clouds your mind. Im just under the impression that bowing is a sign of respect! Its not like Obama is sucking his dick... Chill
Hmm then why didn't the Emperor bow back? Then why didn't the Chinese President Jintao bow to the Emperor...or the South Korean President...or any other Asian country....or next you're going to say you only bow in Japan?
Why do you think stating a general fact means being a know it all? Everyone knows that Japanese people bow to each other. I didnt really say anything that makes me a "17 year old know it all"......
but seriously, did you read my other posts? I said I dont like Obama, but you guys are just blowing this out of proportion... Its just a bow.
I think sucking a single dick makes you a queer, whether it's obama's or not. Don't worry, next election you'll be old enough to vote for him, if there's a country left for him to preside over.
By now, I know that you are saying idiotic things just to piss people off. And no, I dont. That guy hasnt done anything for us, why should we like him?
What's the big deal? Even in karater we bow before a fight. You know what is worst? George Bush, Bill Clinton, George W., Colin Powell, Norman Swarzhkoff kneeling down to the Queen of England and letting her place a sharp sword by their necks. Treason!
agreed! they dont know the word respect because white parents don't teach their kids anything, because they are too busy at work or drinking a bottle away. What obama did is in accordance with the situation he was in showing respect and admiration to the emperor and his wife.
they have fought and won freedom throughout europe and asia. But that government is not the same government we have today. Back then they actually cared about the people, now they just care about money
omfg y do ppl take every bow serious its fucking culture look at bush he held hands with a saudi king its in there culture over there near india to do that and u didn't c all dems saying its horrible what he did its not like the nation is bowing to jap its JUST one guy doing it if u kno what i mean yea he's the pres. So what no big deal he was being respectful ppl need to get over the fact that he won and mcain lost ok what's next he didnt use his pinky while shaking a person omg what a disgrace
It's controversial because the most powerful man in the world isn't supposed to go around bowing to foreign potentates. It's not only controversial, it's a violation of over 200 + years of established Presidential protocol. American Presidents aren't supposed to go around bowing to foreign kings!
LMAO who in the world is going to take "0bamaWartFaceNigger" seriously. keep doing your thing u big ole lovable keyboard warrior you, lmao what a joke.
and for this Obama wartfacenigger...sorry 2 inform u but u r a nigger..look it up in da dictionary..read for once since ur a redneck and prolly dropped out of school at da age of 11..smh...I feel sorry 4 ur momma!! :D asshole
Why are all the countries of the world rich? Because America has been buying there product forced on America through NAFTA & GAT thanks to Clinton & Gore.. If we did not buy there junk. They would still be using carts being pulled by an Ox. All the worlds countries should give thanks to All Americans for buying there junk.. Of course we all could just stop buying it and Only Buy America.. Boy oh boy would that take the smirk of there stinking face!
I argee with dumbovoy..its called RESPECT....I c we have a lot of egocentric dumbasses on here...smh..sad 2 c how dumb ppl r to the many cultures of the WORLD....geesshhh ppl..open up a damn book and read...if u ignorant ppl. know how!!!
o ya it is when she smirking at him like i wanna see him kiss my feet he a dumbass and im not redneck btw but anyway name one president who hasnt traveled as much been on t.v. and been on tonight shows like jay leno etc. he a celebrity not a president
Boy you must have been furious when president Bush bowed to the Pope. Or when Clinton bowed to the same emperor. Or when Reagan bowed to Queen Elizabeth.
just because obama isnt a fucking moron like bush and b/c hes black ppl rip on him but if he was white / rep and doing this he would be a fucking hero im white and 90% on USA is filled with retards and racist
When will these people realize that showing signs of RESPECT to othe cultures in NOT a sign of weekness on the United Stated part. If anything it show that we want to be taken serious.
He could of just shaken the Emperor's hand and gave him a head nod, but a full bow makes him look submissive to the ruler which is why it is controversy. 2 sides of this: 1. Tolerance view he is just being nice. 2. Fully bowing shows weakness from our President. I say meet in the middle he could of been just as nice without fully bowing to him.
USA Isnt the only place in the world you retard in japan bowing IS RESPECT as in USA hand shake is RESPECT 90% of you retards prob think GWB should be president for life when we wire tapped phones and took away rights morons
A sign of weakness? I don't think so... A sign of respect? Yes! What the fuck is wrong with America?!?! Controversial?! Stop being so fuckign arrogant!!!!
alot of americans that comment here are really stupid and dont know shit about anything outside usa. and even thing inside usa they dont know shit about.
in japan they bow to show respect and its not a negative thing to do that even if u are president. its a nice and respectful thing. Im not from japan so maybe some japanese can explain to u losers this stuff.. and plz u fucking morrons are u still living with the racist thought??
Jamzkangster no one wants to join your fucking KKK world...fucking rednecks! Don't go crying to the Japanese when your American car start breaking down! LMFAO!
what the hell... the to the, japanese (or most of asia for that matter), a bow is the equivalent of a handshake. to them, a bow doesn't necessarily mean you are expressing your inferiority to them or anything like that. amazing how so many people get pissed off when they don't know jack shit outside of their little perfect america.
And im discusted to be a cityzen, of hussein obamas regieme, and just forget the men who died.. who fought and lost that right for me, cause we gladly stand up and deny that god had put us here today. there aint no doubt this land has changed... God show mercy on the USA!!!
OBAMA WAS JUST BEING RESPECTFUL....plus he wants to kiss ass 2 get more companys in the usa and m ore JOBS 4 us dumbasses a bow to them = more jobs for us
Controversial? LOL. Silly, pathetic right wing nuts make everything he does controversial. It gets to the point it's funny. Now had they carefully chosen 1 or 2 issues it would seem more realistic. But no. Everything he does becomes controversial or wrong etc, hehe.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
The odd thing is that a Japanese person would look at this and think that Obama made a really idiotic gaffe, or actually two or three of them, no because he bowed, but because a) he did such a sloppy job of bowing, b) he tried to bow while also doing a handshake, and c) he touched the emperor.
Japanese people bow neatly with (for men) hands at their sides. There is none of the diving forward with a step into the bow, and one never shakes hands while bowing. And never touch the emperor!
Obama is so arrogant he would probably slap the Emperor on the back, like Mrs. Obama did to the Queen of England. The queen turned and was like WTF. lol.. she probably wanted to slap Mrs. Obama.
You're a idiot. Shut the fuck up. Bow neatly? What do you know about bowing neatly since you fucking redneck don't know what bowing is. Get off that trailer and travel yah douche bag.
Being nice by calling me a asshole? Wait until your balls drop then come talk to me dipshit. You can't even vote yet! LOL another boy being brainwash by the RepubliKKKant.
funny how after 911 happened everyone wanted to get back the terrorists for what they did to our country. and now because the media leads everyone to believe we have failed over seas bush has fucked the country. what has obama done?
He hasn't done anything to fuck this country up thats for sure...it is the RepubliKKKant fault for screwing everything up! You guys DID FAIL because we're still here aren't we? Where the WMD? Where Osama Bin Laden? ANSWER ME!
But the "thou need not bow" commandment from the State Department's protocol office maintained a constancy of more than 200 years. Administration officials scurried to insist that the eager-to-please President had not really done the unthinkable.
white "people" are criminally insane that's why they can not respect and get confused when others are respectful ...don't worry humans their waking you up to this reality slowly but surely ...now what are we going to do about it?

As an American citizen and self-professed Japanophile, I have no clue as to why this is so controversial.
I, for one, am quite proud to have a president that is aware of/respects other cultures.
All this malarky about his bow "being executed poorly" is just that, junk.
The very fact that he bowed is a significant enough gesture for the emperor.

agreed! they dont know the word respect because white parents don't teach their kids anything, because they are too busy at work or drinking a bottle away. What obama did is in accordance with the situation he was in showing respect and admiration to the emperor and his wife.

No American bows down to anyone, and particularly don't bow to foreign leaders, especially when they are a monarch.
So what the heck is does the President of America think he is doing?! Even more disturbing is those he bows to, aren't bowing back.
If anything, he should be walking up to them and going:"Tha world is mine get back

He could of just shaken the Emperor's hand and gave him a head nod, but a full bow makes him look submissive to the ruler which is why it is controversy. 2 sides of this: 1. Tolerance view he is just being nice. 2. Fully bowing shows weakness from our President. I say meet in the middle he could of been just as nice without fully bowing to him.

If only I knew more about the Japan culture, I could post a reasonable response.
Instead, I will simply state that it was my assumption that a bow is customary to greet people with, or to show respect or thanks.
Perhaps the bow was a little low for a man of his status, but if you think it's a big deal, then IMO you're a fool.
Honestly, it was just a man trying to abide by the proper cultural etiquette.

The odd thing is that a Japanese person would look at this and think that Obama made a really idiotic gaffe, or actually two or three of them, no because he bowed, but because a) he did such a sloppy job of bowing, b) he tried to bow while also doing a handshake, and c) he touched the emperor.
Japanese people bow neatly with (for men) hands at their sides. There is none of the diving forward with a step into the bow, and one never shakes hands while bowing. And never touch the emperor!
