Well I don't really know what he's doing...

but I'm sure he's not bowing.

I think he threw his back out when he missed trying to use Rahmbo as a launching ramp for a slam dunk.

Jeeez, how does Sanity (with or without a cap) connect that image with a thread on the freaking deficit? But yeah, I just noticed. Sorry for the duplication. Who would have guessed?!

Hmm. Why not read the post, and find out?

Reading the post is what convinced me there's no connection. You need to listen to Ron on this one.

It was a joke that got RMLs panties in a bunch and resulted in a total thread hijack. Not the first time, wont be the last.

Its a good idea to switch over to your thread, but I had a point to make and I had no way of knowing nor did I intend that it would become a full hijack over there. I'm not taking mnot off of ignore again though...

Really?

I hijacked it? 

Well, I admit to contributing, but I wasn't the source.

By the way, I would greatly appreciate if you have something to say about me that you say it to me.

Quite a stir over there, eh? But yeah, a hijack to be sure.

Bowing is a fine Japanese custom which I have learned to respect, but it depends very much on how low you bow relative to how low the other person bows (or not). Obama either has no fucking idea, or else I don't want to go there. I did think it was cute that RML jumped on Bush lowering his head to receive a medallion as a "bow". We can probably chalk that one up to a panty problem, but you gotta admit Bush's hand-holding and kissy stuff was no less over the top.

Just out of curiosity Kirata, are you guys ever man enough to talk to someone's face?

You remind me of gossipy schoolgirls.

I didnt say that. And I would greatly appreciate it if you would stop lying about what my posts say. Until then, c'est la vie.

Lots of overreaction to go around, will.

I'd not jump so quickly to "lying" in an intentional sense.

Either way, surely we all have better things to debate. This thing is pretty well beaten dead.

Sorry, but it is so consistent and so obvious that even I wouldn't attribute every instance to reading comprehension.

There, I said it.

Now respect is called subservience.

If you want respect, you have to give respect. We, as a nation, havent given respect for a long damn time, unless it was for a damn barrel of oil.

bowing is a civility thing in Japan.   While he seemed unpolished/clumsy- the intent to show respect is the right thing to do.

How would it have been if he snubbed the Japanese?  When a guest - one is to go by the customs of the host country.  I don't think Obama did anything wrong on this one.

Bowing deeply before someone who does not bow back is an act of subservience. Its showing more respect than is due. Orion bows to his Master Chen to show deference, but deference isn't due to other world leaders because respect isn't a one way street.

And nobody knows more about respect than Sanity.

Look...

I'll never get this arrogant "We don't talk to..." "We don't bow to..." "We're America" rhetoric.

People cooperate better with people who aren't assholes. Doesn't mean we do things they want. Just means we can talk.

We can't just bomb everyone. We don't have the money.

Except the part where, I actually saw the video of it, and he did bow back.  But that's facts, and not spin one can put on something just from one picture.  Sorry.  I'll take those pesky facts back on out of here.  My bad.
