O-bow-ma Finds Someone To Bow To In Copenhagen December 18, 2009

Posted by seeineye in : Politics , trackback

After his brief, listless and cliché-ridden speech in Copenhagen “time for action, not words,” “we should live in the future, not the past”] that aired live on Morning Joe today, Pres. Obama makes the hand-shaking rounds on the podium.

He continues the glad-handing off the podium, until he spots someone and breaks into . . . a bow [screen cap after the jump]. With all the mulling around, it’s hard to determine exactly what’s going on. It looks like he might have been exchanging bows with a man in the scrum surrounding him. But PBO’s bow seemed to go beyond the perfunctory head-nod that in the circumstances surely would have satisfied, say, Japanese etiquette.

What is it with our head of our state and Commander-in-Chief that sends him diving toward his shoes whenever a foreign dignitary hails into view? Will the MSM cover this latest installment in the adventures of Pres. O-bow-ma?
