Michelle Malkin Said It Best,"Emetic Alert!"
Well it seems that leading up to the visit of President Obama with the Queen of England there has been much speculation if he would bow to her as others do,as that is considered traditional protocol.As you can see if you watched the news or on the internet instead of bowing he nodded his head slightly.
From the Queen of Englands website which applies to her own subjects this is what it said:
The Queen meets thousands of people each year from the U.K. and overseas.Before meeting "Her Majesty"many people ask how they should behave.The simple answer is their are no obligatory codes
of behaviour-just courtesy.
However,many people wish to observe the traditional forms of greeting.
For men this is a neck bow{from the head only}while woman do a small curtsy.Yea,I could just picture Michelle Obama doing that!{Which she didn't}.Other people prefer simply to shake hands in the usual way.
Americans do not bow to foreign monarchs because that act signifies the monarchs power over his/her subjects.
Also given the fact?one is a Christian neither the Queen,Pope or any King will get my bow except the one true King,the King of Kings,Jesus Christ.
So I wonder why President Obama made a deep full waist bow to the King of Saudi Arabia?As I have read this is not protocol for
heads of state it makes him look like either a bufoon or worse yet,a subject of the King.
For those who claim this is not a bow check out the footage on
Michelle Malkin,Obama deep bow to the Saudi King.
My,my,just what is this world coming to?
