Video: Obama's Bow To Japan's Emperor: How Low Can You Go?
By Robert Paul Reyes
If pictures speak louder than words, then videos speak so loudly that they simply can`t be ignored.

There is a video posted on YouTube that shows President Barack Obama bowing so low before Japan`s Emperor, that it looks like he is servicing the foreign potentate.
The emperor doesn`t reciprocate; traditionally he bows to no one.
Obama then turns to the Emperor`s wife, and repeatedly bows before her, the president looks like a chicken picking up crumbs.
Obama is the Leader of the Free World, and he shouldn`t be subservient to any foreign leader. The president has a very unflattering track record of humiliating himself before foreign rulers.
The President of the United States should stand tall when representing America overseas. I am outraged over Obama`s penchant for bowing before kings and emperors. The president of our great country shouldn`t give undue deference to corrupt dictators like Saudi Arabia`s King Abdullah, or figureheads like Japanese Emperor Akihito.
Watch the video and make up your own mind! Did Barack Obama embarrass himself, and the United States?
