January 8, 1992: President Bush becomes ill on a visit to Japan and vomits on Japanese Prime Minister Miyazawa Kiichi.
While the footage was widely seen of Bush recovering from having emptied his stomach contents on the leader of his host nation, the actual moment of puke was only shown once on US television, on ABCNews. And somehow I ended up with a copy of it on VHS.
Here's what's on this tape: 1. Brief news story about the vomiting. 2. The complete footage of what happened. 3. Slow-motion forward and reverse footage of the projection in progress 4. Brief exceprt from a Saturday Night Live sketch parodying an Oliver Stone recreation of the vomit conspiracy.

Why don't you take it up with the Bushes Senior and Junior? All they did during their "presidencies" was grease up their chutes for the Arab oil powers.
When you're at another Man's house, you greet him in the way he is accustomed to, not the other way around. Obama's bow was not a sign of any servitude, it's a return of a greeting that the Japanese use frequently.
And lost in all this retarded arguing is why Obama's in Asia to begin with.
Yes your are right thank you for the constructive critisim he is there to sell America out further and thats just the facts. I bet I get a bad bad thumbs down for this comment but hey like I said its just the facts. Anyone can find em
Criticizing Obama for bowing would be like the Japanese criticizing the Emperor for shaking Obama's hand (which they do not). I've talked to several Japanese people about this and nobody even noticed that he bowed (because it's normal). The people here didn't think anything of it. It's complete arrogance to think that we should be above respecting other cultures.
I'm American and I live in Japan. Bowing is a way of life here. It's like shaking hands when you meet someone (since people here normally do not shake hands at all). I bow to the old lady who lives next door when I see her. I bow when I meet someone for the first time. I sure the hell would bow when I met the Emperor of Japan no matter how important I thought I was.
When you go to a foreign country, it's common courtesy to greet the host in their own customs, not the other way around. America's strength comes from understanding other people's culture and showing proper respect to the world, not by acting like a dick.
