White House Claims Obama Didn't Bow to King
Wednesday, April 8, 2009 11:34 PM
Barack Obama's White House says the president did not bow to the Saudi King when they met during the recent G-20 meeting in London.
If you think he did, you're just believing your lying eyes.
So reports Politico's Ben Smith Wednesday.
"It wasn't a bow. He grasped his hand with two hands, and he's taller than King Abdullah," an
anonymous Obama aide told Politico.
The aide made the assertion despite a video showing Obama bending almost to a 45 degree angle as he met King Abdullah.
And Politico notes that the Arab press have reported on the "bow" — with favorable reviews.
The occasion may mark the first time a U.S. president has bowed to a foreign potentate.
Look at it for yourself. Is this a bow, or not? Who you gonna believe, Obama or your lyin' eyes?

Obamabi's not getting by with that excuse. The video very clearly shows that the bow occurs as he is extending his right hand and his left does not join it until after he straightens up.
And being as he is so damn tall, why didn't he bow to Elizabeth who is at about eye level with his tie?
Back to the spin room, boys...
Those goons think we're dumb. The arrogance of the Libtards! They live in a fantasy world that we hope will not last long.
Thanks Pasto - they're blockin' Youtube again at the cube farm & couldn't see it to embed it.
Finally Obama displaying his best side.His 'Prime Ass-et' [ the booty gene } !
