the mother of all spin – obama didn’t bow
By American Girl in Italy on April 8, 2009 at 9:45 PM in Barack Obama, G20, Saudi Arabia
I have heard and seen a lot of spin the past couple of years, but this has got to be the mother load of all spin. Can they actually be serious? *It wasn’t a bow, it was a double handshake for a short guy.* (I’m paraphrasing.)
Did they not see the video? It wasn’t even a double handshake! And you know what?
It WASN’T a bow. It was a curtsy!
(One of our readers said that on my previous post, *obama bends over for the saudis*) and they are RIGHT!)
A bow is a bend at the waist. This was a full on knee bending curtsy.
That was the most ridiculous spin, ever.
The left is working overtime to defend Obama, deny the curtsy, and talk of it’s irrelevance. However, Bush holding hands with the King was apparently news and snark worthy.
Bush: Holding hands with the Saudis for nothing – Seattle PI
Abdullah-Bush Stroll Strikes Nerve – Images Of Leaders Holding Hands Doesn’t Sit Well With Americans – CBS News
David Letterman mocked Bush on his top ten, calling him gay. (But Dave can find NOTHING to criticize about Obama?)
Barbara Walters on 20/20 asked King Abdullah about holding hands with Bush, and he explained it is a sign of friendship. His comments on bowing are interesting, though. “KING ABDULLAH: I have tremendous distaste for such matters because I believe that one only bows before one’s God, not before another human being.” (when he said *that one* do you think he meant Obama?)
Brian Williams was still talking about it in 2007.
The New York Times wrote about it. Newsweek. Time.
So I guess, when a Republican does something (that is actually actual protocol), it generates negative news coverage, but when Obama does something that is out of protocol, and according to the King, distasteful, you only hear about it on FOX.
Camille Paglia from Salon.com chalks it up to staffing issues. (that would sure fit in well with Obama’s habit of blaming his staff for everything…)
“Obama’s staffing problems are blatant — from that bleating boy of a treasury secretary to what appears to be a total vacuum where a chief of protocol should be. There has been one needless gaffe after another — from the president’s tacky appearance on a late-night comedy show to the kitsch gifts given to the British prime minister, followed by the sweater-clad first lady’s over-familiarity with the queen and culminating in the jaw-dropping spectacle of a president of the United States bowing to the king of Saudi Arabia. Why was protest about the latter indignity confined to conservatives? The silence of the major media was a disgrace. But I attribute that embarrassing incident not to Obama’s sinister or naive appeasement of the Muslim world but to a simple if costly breakdown in basic command of protocol.”
While I agree with Camille’s comments that these events were tacky, and the media has been disgraceful, I am not sure if the problems can be blamed soley on the lack of a protocol officer. I don’t have a chief of protocol and I knew that the gifts were tacky, the appearance on Leno was the wrong place, wrong time, with very wrong comments, and I know not to be so touchy feely with the Queen (and I wouldn’t have blocked Prince Philip out of the photo either, especially if I towered over him – how tall ARE they?). And I wouldn’t have kept my back to the press pool either. But that’s just me… (I don’t want pictures of my behind!)
And I highly doubt I would bow to the King of Saudi Arabia. If I bowed to anyone, it would have been the Queen. So, this just sounds like yet another round of excuses for Obama.

It was a bow and scrape – the right leg going “scraping” backward…
But isn’t it interesting that no reporter would even think of settling the controversy by asking Obama himself!
It’s a bow.
Just how stupid do they think we are?
He was just checking out the Kings belt! Hemmmm does the King wear a belt?
Here’s how stupid. Have you all seen this piece in Time Magazine….this is amazing, discussing how the O’s team of experts aimed to shape the sheeples’ behavior.
http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,1889153,00.html
OMFG…I can’t even look anymore. The MSM in this country should be hanged.
I have a serious problem with being “re-pro-grammed”
Beyond sickening.
This goes hand-in-glove with the previous report we saw on Obama’s use of a form of hypnotism in his speeches.
There is absolutely no reality to the man. It’s all image.
Apparently, stupid enough to have elected BO POTUS.
He is a flake (among other things). When he does idiotic things like these, his handlers do damage control. Imagine all the other idiotic things he does that does not get reported.
ROFL!
Definition I just found (but he didn’t do the arms correctly: to bow and scrape (third-person singular simple present bows and scrapes, present participle bowing and scraping, simple past and past participle bowed and scraped)
to make a deep bow with the right leg drawn back (thus scraping the floor), left hand pressed across the abdomen, right arm held aside.
(figuratively) to show excessive politeness or servility.
A curtsey (also spelled curtsy) is a traditional gesture of greeting, in which a woman bends her knees while bowing her head. It is the female equivalent of male bowing in Western cultures. The word “curtsy” is a phonological change from “courtesy” known in linguistics as syncope.
He didn’t just bow his head, he bent his whole body over, so I vote for “bow”/bow and scrape.
And the White House must really think we’re stupid. The Queen is much shorter than this King, so this meme about Obama’s height making it *seem* like a bow is ridiculous. This same logic would mean he should have been 3/4 bent over for the queen.
It is a bow! Probably from his childhood conditioning to show reverence for Saudi Arabia’s titular head of Islam.
I wonder what it would take for America to wake up.
i think that’s exactly what it was. at least when bush held hands with the saudi king (or whoever it was), it certainly was not his own (bush’s) idea; it was a saudi custom and bush just went along with it. ozero’s bow seems to be something that he truly felt, and he simply acted on his instincts.
I ran the phrase “President Barack Obama” through an anagram generator. One of the anagrams that came back was “an arab backed imposter.”
Which could mean nothing.
Or explain a lot.
The torso remains straight, or only slightly lowered, in a curtsy ; it is the knees that are bent, and one leg is normally overlapping the other, back and to the opposite side of your body. Hands are also either clasping the skirt in front, or behind at the waist.
So, how stupid do they think we are, really ? The White House claimed Obama was shaking the kings hand with both hands. Only problem is, the double handshake, lifting his left hand to grab the king’s hand, comes only after he straightens up. Hunched over, there’s absolutely no doubt the president has his left hand down his side while the king takes his right hand to shake it.
What Obama did was a big, low bow/scrape. You have to be blind not to see it.
(I was poking fun, not actually defining the bow as a curtsy.)
Well, he IS always breaking protocol.
So he kept his left arm aside…bowed…..and then shook hands with his right hand and then the left.
Breaking both the American protocol and the Saudi King’s protocol at the same time he was blending them.
A world class tool….lol….who doesn’t seem to think he is really President. Can now offend twice as many people on both sides of the ocean.
Didn’t the constitutional law lecturer get the pamphlet that US Presidents don’t bow to royalty?
I agree with the WH. It wasn’t a bow. 0bama was merely giving the saudi king a “Larry Sinclair”.
Dubya may have been coy with old Abdullah and just held hands like an old fashioned “nice” girl but B. Hussein(that shameless hussy) showed the saudi he can go “all the way”.
omg…LOL
Political spin doctors are not what they used to be.
The TOTUS is the one with the smooth talking skills, and its boss is BO. Maybe TOTUS has a cousin who can work for the White House spokesperson, and it can come up with better excuses!
I would bow to Queen Elizabeth as a mark of respect to her even though it would not be required as I am not a British subject.
In watching 0 and Meeechelle I feel as though I am watching them in their own fantasy adventure that confirms the view they have of themselves as special people because of their special qualities. They aren’t special.
As far as Meeechelle’s fashion sense, it is a reflection of who she wants to appear be whereas with Jackie Kennedy it was a reflection of her and her values. The 0s are not in the same league.
I don’t think I would. I would show her respect in my own way, like nodding my head, or speaking politely, or using a formal term of address. But in almost 50 years, the only time I’ve ever seen people bowing or curtsying is on the old movie channel in stuff from the 30s.
I hear a lot about cultural competence, and it usually means us doing things the way someone from another culture wants. But I’m starting to feel that other cultures should start becoming culturally competent, themselves, and let us be ourselves, not just them being allowed to be themselves….
lorac, I agree with everything you said above except not recognizing other cultures when we are visitors in their countries. However, bowing isn’t part of Saudi culture and they weren’t even in Saudi Arabia. Looking at the video, it would appear those around him were bemused by his bow also. When I first saw it, I thought he was kissing the King’s ring and as far as I know, that isn’t done for anyone other than the Pope.
And I had so much hope he would amount to something. Sigh.
Most of us hoped he would govern from the center. I even thought he would have to do that. I think now, that theory is that the far left feels they can “buy” 52% of America with handouts and promises of handouts and the rest of us be damned.
I guess the WH missed the part where his left arm was at his side during the “not” bow and he didn’t take the kings hand with BOTH of his until after he stood up from said Non bow
Also the Queen is about a foot shorter than King of Saudi but he managed to shake her hand with BOTH of his and only had to bow at the neck, amzing isn’t it.
Did Bagdad Bob become DC bob?
Exactly AGI. The disgusting silence of the enabling media is deafening. What a bunch of cowards, traitors to their profession and the American people.
And the WH? Who are they kidding? Is it arrogance they can get away with whatever given the fawning media? Maybe but I am tired of they treating the public as stupid:
If it looks like a bow, bends like a bow and scraps like in a bow, then it’s a bow.
The two videos here tell it all (by the way look closely at PBO’s left hand hanging while bowing and shaking with his right hand, only).
http://hotair.com/archives/2009/04/08/white-house-bow-what-bow/
Yep he offers his left hand AFTER he is done Not bowing and stands up.
It was no bow to the Saudi King, Obama just wanted a good sniff of the camel sweat between the Saudi Kings thighs, is that so wrong? After all, camels are on Obama’s list of enviromental programs for the American fools who elected him as messiah.
If you listen carefully to the prior talk between Obama and the Saudi King, the King mentioned how his camels leave a scent like fine Mercedes leather on his thighs!
So stop attacking Obama for his constant seeking the right things for the American people!
You know, if it wasn’t a bow then he was trying to show his hard ass to someone else behind him. Choose one PBO; which one was it?
Honestly, the White House thinks we will buy into anything they put forward, since Obama is just a product being marketed. How long will it take the public to figure out they are being served a load of crap. People need to trust themselves-if it looks, like crap, smells like crap, tastes like crap, it must be CRAP! Thank you FOX for covering this. Apparently, the rest of the media is still in coverup mode. A total bend at the waist when greeting someone is a bow, period, end of subject!!
Well fortunately FOX gets more viewers than CNN and MSNBC combined.
Fox showed it over and over and over last evening. Ben Smith had it up on his blog but suddenly it is ….. poof! I guess even if there are those occasional truthiness lapses they resort to erasing the remnants?
I have admired Camille Paglia’s ability to assess situations without emotional attachments. She also said many years ago she listens to Rush because he has interesting points. She has a truly open mind.
I’m sorry but I just have to comment on that video with the Queen–Michelle’s outfit is so unflattering and ordinary looking. I can walk into any department store in my town and find at least 10 appropriate looking suits–why can’t she? And learn how to walk, Michelle! Why can’t they get Tim Gunn in there to help?
Double handshake? Well the Saudis don’t generally touch each other with their left hands… it is considered unclean. To do so would be an insult. Can this crew do anything right?
O’Reilly had Miller on tonight..
Obama can’t bow for the Queen who is a decent woman but Obama can sure suck it up by bowing to the sexist misogynist pig of a sheik.
Hey Seattle, I went off forums last night… doing research on solar vacuum tube water heaters. Congrats on the garden. I extended mine larger over the weekend. At least there will be vegetables… right.
I’m glad you read my comment
I’m expanding to use almost the whole back yard.
We have officially gone into the land of pathetic.
From Wikipedia:
So double handshaking with the right and left hand would also be an insult.
Interesting! That must be where the old expression comes from: “Never let your right hand know what your left hand is doing . . . ” Of course, O is left-handed . . . hmmmm–is there a stigma to being left-handed “among Muslims”? I was joking, but now I’m wondering. . .
Interesting thought. I was of the understanding, you would not be completely left handed in Muslim countries because you can’t eat or drink with the left hand. It is believed that “Satan eats and drinks with his left hand”.
It is believed that “Satan eats and drinks with his left hand”.
Ouch. And, presumably, signs bills, treaties, and pacts as well. The President’s left-handedness doesn’t bother me. I sure hope it doesn’t bother people in the Middle East.
I noticed the other day, when jizzbrain was signing yet another document he never read, that he is left handed. Okay, I’m not a religious type but suddenly that Anti Christ thing makes total sense.
Which is weird that he lost all thought about that as a leftie with a Muslim background.
And in that one meeting, he came off more naive about Muslims than the Bush Family.
Wasn’t he the world traveler who wouldn’t step on their toes? Naw…he just wiped his tp hand on the King…..ugh.
And asked about speaking Austrian? Where is that in the media??????
Well, if the press didn’t criticize Obama’s decades long membership in Jeremiah Wright’s church and his decades long friendship with Fr Pfleger, then I guess bowing and scraping to the Royal Saudis is no big deal. How else can Obama unite the world in one gleeful song of joy, if he doesn’t have his nose up everyone’s.
Oh, and I thought Camile Paglia was supposed to be a sophisticate sublime. Obama’s protocol people are probably doing exactly what Obama’s handlers want them to do. It’s all image Camile. People see what they want to see, hear what they want to hear, and block out the rest. There aren’t very many of us who even try to think. Don’t make excuses for this clown…this New Millenium version of that sanctimonious idiot, Jimmy Carter.
And that doesn’t mean there should not be justice for the Palestinians.
I posted this same thing at Riverdaughter earlier today, because it was so patently absurd. Politico posted it WITH the video, and then included the denial?! So now, we have gone way beyond spin, lying, and even common sense. We have now crossed into (well, not us, but the delusional ones) blatant denial of reality. It just gets stranger and stranger.
I am not sure if the problems can be blamed soley on the lack of a protocol officer. …
Not to mention that any grade-school child knows that ‘America bows to no king but God.’ And going to grade school in other countries is no excuse. My husband grew up largely in Indonesia and Malaysia, and he knew that one.
Neither does the flag. Ever. This from Wiki..I remembered the story, but not all the details, and went to find a copy of it. Here it is..
Do you think Obama bend down to look at the King’s shoes and gave him a compliment? Just wondering….
These are all square dance moves. Look at the picture at the top of the page. The guys in suits and the guys in dresses are arranged in a square, and O is performing the “bow to your partner” routine, and is getting ready to “swing your partner” and “promenade” holding hands (like W did), but then he remembers the damn paparazzi and how they’ll make a big deal of it back home.
I’d give anything to see Obama & Abdullah doing the doe-see-doe!
That excuse is right up there with the “But, I didn’t inhale.” defense.
My take: Obama accidently drooled on the King’s shoe and was bending down to wipe it off before anyone noticed.
It’s as good as, if not better than, the lame spin from the WH.
I love this thing. You guys give me goosebumps. O the wonder was only showing that he doesn’t have a stick up his yanker danker and that he can ask anyone to dance he damn well pleases. Hadn’t you seen that in the Johnny Ford Flicks? My O’ My. “May I write my name on your card?” The little feller is a sayin’. You know how it is. He’s not only color blind, he’s gender blind, too. Just see him after the dance back in his little aeroplane telling the Missus what a cod he was.
Smiley, what’s the protocol for this: “Your Highness, may I have this dance?”
I almost expect to see him wearing bow ties any day now. This is absurd.
Well he always wears white shirts and the rest of the outfit.
It really bad and VERY scary when you dont feel your our country’s president if looking out for the country’s welfare.
Everyday Obama is in office he seems to put down and destroy what is and what was America.
Obama said he was for change but I dont think this is the change the majority of his supporters expected.
Does anyone else get the feeling that we’re all witnessing the governmental amateur hour whenever Obama is in the media?
It’s eerily similar to watching a high school student body pres on the public access channel.
Either Obama is just a really big blockhead or his staff is trying to tank him with sloppy slacker information.
*shaking head in disgust*
You mean like one of those spoof movies. Like Leslie Nielsen movies; Airplane and Naked Gun.
Yes it does seem like Obama is making a mockery of the office and our country. I dont think I remember any other president making America and the Office of President so look so bad and stupid in such a short time. Most presidents take a year or two to show their stupidity, but not Obama.
I guess I have to do some spin for Bush. I’ve watched the hand holding incident many times and I never gotten the impression that Bush was being servile. Just the opposite. His body language clearly shows that he was actually the dominant and more vibrant figure that was lending assistance to a frail and unsteady elderly person. It’s much the same way that Boy Scouts help little old ladies to cross the street. Reading more than that into it is silly.
0bama’s movements clearly showed submissive behavior; he rolled over and showed his soft underbelly, and showed the World that we have a spineless wimp leading our country.
Bush was a tough guy and someday we may regret the way he was treated in light of the fact that we haven’t been attacked again.
In England they treated Churchill the same way
Hero’s become villains by those that forget who saved them…
Obama reminds me of the wussy wimp at school always being the teachers pet and allowing bullies to give him wedgies with a smile.
I don’t know, Moss…. he may be passive with our foreign enemies, but he has certainly stabbed lots of people here in the back…. Edwards, Richardson, others…. So I’m not sure he’s a “wussy wimp” across the board… he gets people back – he just doesn’t do it in a fit of rage, or to their face… he waits, and then gets them in the back…
Dodd, Daschle…..
Revenge of the nerds?
Passive aggressive behavior, exactly right. Like touching a Muslim king with your “unclean” hand? Most anybody watching the clip is talking about the bow. What is missed in discussion is the left handed touch of the “unclean” hand to the king’s “clean” hand. Don’t say he did not know exactly what he is doing. I have been torn wondering whether this couple are the biggest rubes we have ever had occupy the White House i.e. inappropriate touching of the Muslim king or the British Queen as an example… or whether they are just uncontrollably passive aggressive.
You’re right about your spin — leading an old, frail man by the hand. In eastern cultures with age comes certain obligations for others toward that person no matter what. Showing respect and care with explicit gestures like this are among them.
I think he was looking for his teleprompters…
What the hell is a “double handshake?” A two-fisted shake? Shake with the left hand, and then the right? What about the man to his right. What was that a bunny-hop?
Please, the video from the side clearly shows Barack Obama, POTUS, bowing, nearly falling to one knee before the Saudi King. Why? I don’t know. It was bizarre, embarrassing and a huge gaffe.
And now the explantions become as ridiculous as the action itself.
You cannot explain it away. We’re stuck with this image. And it’s not pretty!
Maybe he was trying to have a “Monica moment” with the King.
Sorry, could resist. Hehehe.
Dont forget the Larry Sinclair moment. Srry I couldnt resist either
We know a damn bow when we see one, for Pete’s sake they must think we’re all brain dead!
The only people that will believe it wasn’t a bow are the Obots, and they will believe anything, anything but the truth that is staring them right in the face.
The gutless trolls are MIA on this one because they can`t defend Hussein on his non-bow.
Maybe this is why we’ve had soooo many of the walking dead posting here in the past few days.
*”It wasn’t a bow, it was sexual advance, hoping the tease would excite him in to agreement”.
AND
I got news for you, the King SURELY LOOKED UNCOMFORTABLE WHEN OBAMBI did that bow. He even looked around like “what the f@ck is this?”
Forget the fork, he’s burnt, just toss him in the trash!
Uncomfortable yes, the President of the United States just put his poo hand on his hand. You would think that Obama would know better. Either this was some passive aggressive action, or maybe we don’t know anything about this man at all?
The king was probably uncomfortable because he outlawed bowing a while back, saying men should only bow to god. No one bows to this king.
Except Obama.
I guess “everything you need to know about foreign policy and relations” he learned from ages 6-10 n Indonesia….. too bad it’s outdated….
It was either a major HUMMER or we’re in major trouble.
Everything I could say on this would be excessively scatological, even for this site. So craft your own, based upon and crafted around the term, “Reach-Around.”
Please King…..we promise not to drill for oil in America anymore and only buy oil from you….what a pathetic sack of shit this guy is ….right bots?
For the love of God…anyone who still supports this loser isn’t human. Stepford Bots is what I say.
PS LMAO Harp (as usual). I think OFraud’s energy plan (if you’re ignorant enough to call it that) is worse than Carter’s and will shoot oil to astronomic highs. Oops, I guess that’s what he wants since he’s sucking off the Saudis.

HARP,
Thanks for that story,
Pamela Geller is another woman I admire!
The king held his hand high for Barack – Barack took it and then lowered the king’s hand and proceeded to bow.
Funny the WH is now lying – they must be a little worried.
You think??
The explanations are ridiculous. When will politicians learn to tell the truth? You know, like okay guys I made a mistake. Just once, the truth. It would be so refreshing.
Oh no, we get–he bent over to pick something up, it was a curtsy [strange], a double handshake [whatever that is] or my favorite [though the Obama folks didn't use it] from Andrew: the Saudi King was wearing shoe mirrors [that jokester] and Obama couldn’t resist looking at his own reflection.
That still makes me laugh.
These people need to get a grip. If they can’t handle this, God only knows what surprises we’ll have around the corner.
I know. The fact that the White House has to NOW totatlly LIE about the bow shows how bad it actually is.
Instead of saying he did it out of respect or whatever, they totally LIED!!!!!!
THAT means he really f’ed up.
Obama bowed. The world saw him. He embarrassed America.
It didn’t appear to bother him one bit. “What? Me worry?”
He is a disgrace.
AGII ~ You’re one of my favorites of all time and I know you don’t mean it this way but I’d caution the use of the headline with “Spin” in it. We have become so conditioned to never use the term LIE in politics, it’s astounding.
This is not spin. Spin is nuance, argument over a phrase and it’s meaning.
Saying a goose is a cow is not spin.
Saying the POUTUS didn’t “bow” in this case, but rather bent over from the waist with head down until he was in a supplicating posture is not spin. It’s not semantics. It’s a bald face falsehood.
See, even I shy from it.
It’s a lie. And a sham. We have to stop giving someone credit for the mere act of being willing to say something. We much prefer to “disagree” on things. That sound politic. When we go to the “lie” we have to question motives and basic honesty. We don’t like doing that. We don’t like to believe that public figures will actually, flat out, lie if it suits their purpose. That shakes us to the foundation of our belief in our system of government.
Yet, politicians have been lying for centuries.
We need to get over it and call a duck a cat, I mean, call a duck a duck and a cat a cat. This is a VERY hard habit to break.
yes, you are right. it was a bold faced lie.
BOW WOW.
What’s the old saying: don’t believe your lying eyes?
With Pravda as the new American MSM you’ll just have to pretend you didn’t see it!
Exactly — and our MSM hasn’t been forced to be propaganda machines — they took that role on themselves. Very sad and spooky…
funny comments….I saw Miller last night on O’Reilly and he was PISSED. It is obvious he feels strongly about women being disrepected.
By the way…this was a BOW WOW by Obama. Yep, no Bots here on this one.
Yep, no Bots here on this one
- Exactly.
why wouldn’t he bow here then:

hell, he even bowed more for the king than this guy
http://www.the19thfloor.net/images/obama.jpg
He bowed and she touched the queen. Both no-nos. So that’s makes them both imperfect which is what is probably tormenting obama the most, mr. overachiever/perfect god that he is. Again. both no-nos no matter what spin you put on it.
Only a Muslim should bow to the Saudi king.
The King says otherwise. He says one should bow only to God. And he has said it publicly, and often.
find it funny Ben smith shows a pic (AND so of course ALL the Bots are running around saying it) …lookie lookie Bush bowed too, (you know whenever Barky is doing something wrong, his first defense was but… but.. Hillary… then but bt McCain (or Sarah) and Now they “moved on” to but but Bush)with a still pic of what “looks” like Bush is bowing to the king , (slightly altho it’s more of a bend from the neck and not full bow from the waist)BUT totally ignores the fact that if you click on the picture to watch the video, Bush is bending so the Saudi King can place a medal around his neck, since Bush is taller too. but they pretend it is the same as Barky’s full bow (with his left hand at his side, not in the Kings hand) and “I” don’t even like Bush and NEVER voted for either Bush http://www.politico.com/blogs/bensmith/0409/About_the_bow.html
and the other big talking point, when the world is LAUGHING at this lie, was it wasn’t and “official” statement from the WH so it doesn’t count.
they are simply idiotic.
i dont like what obama does one thing he changed the white houses tennis court and turned it to a basket ball court.Tennis is for whites and blacks and all genders.And why did he not bow to the Queen of England, i know why he bowed to the Arab king but why not the Queen she haves blood of royalty too.He haves no respect to the Queen.
