Our Radical Progressive President, Barack Hussein Obama, bows yet again. This time he bows to Tampa Mayor, Pam Iorio. Yes the President of the United states bows to a mayor! There are no words left to say. I’ll let the pictures speak for itself.

All this bowing. If he wasn’t such an arrogant prick, I’d think he had an inferiority complex.
Seriously, I think he thinks you’re supposed to do that with Asians. For him, race is everything.

and moslems too, apparently.
@ Kirly:
Well, isn’t Muslim a race?
That is just positively weird. It’s like some dom-sub fetish with him.
Bush bowed too!!!

It’s Bush’s fault!
He’s showing her where soros attaches the puppet stings.
Wanker
Notice the look on the face of the officer. You can tell that he’s thinking “WTF is this rookie doing???”.
Is it photoshopped? Everyone looks stiff in the picture to me.
She is Italian American. Not Asian. Iorio.

I think you may be right. He’s playing a role — big dummy (channeling Fred Sanford).
He is taking that phrase “Your humble servant” too literally.
Ms. Orio, looking at the top of his head is thinking, “999, now what could that possibly mean?”
You say he’s bowing. I say he’s checking out her Ferragamos, on Michelle’s orders.
Maybe he think he’s surrendering.

Just set it in place, start it up, and it keeps on bowing!
Damn, the little ™ didn’t come out.

1) Mistook her for a foreign leader.
2)Bows to all women (Based upon orders from Michelle).

Ok, now does Drinky Bird have any relation to WindUpBird?

Well, maybe not quite, but close.
Maybe she is doing that finger crushing hand shake grip and making him crumble.
@ mjazz:
+1 – made me laugh
He just likes to bow!
It’s projection-he wants everyone to bow to him so he bows to everyone.
@ Rodan:
Obowma!
I think Obama needs a medical checkup.
He clearly has prostrate trouble.
@ Iron Fist:
Snowcrash’s is pretty good too.
This wouldn’t have happend if Obama had a teleprompter with protocol instuctions with him.
snowcrash wrote:
No matter what the event, this White House can never seem to find a pro to call.
I just can’t see how he could make so many errors of basic protocol.
Unbelievable.
wolfie wrote:
Wait’ll the protocol office convinces him that it is customary for the President to receive a wedgie on all state occasions.
@ buzzsawmonkey:
Bowing to a Mayor? Just when you thought it couldn’t get anymore ridiculous!
@ wolfie:
Why is it (almost) a reflex that he bow to some people, but not others? A mayor but not the Queen? This is why he seems so different and out of touch. It is not his race, it is stuff like this. Weird and yes, IMO, his “otherness”.
@ snowcrash:
Maybe it was his years in Indonesia?
snowcrash wrote:
That is a great puzzlement. I assumed that his gauche treatment of Elizabeth — Michelle hugging her, no less!—and his obsequious groveling before the Saudi and Japanese monarchs was simply a reflection of his hatred of “Eurocentrism.”
But this mayor thing is just plain bizarre.
That is one funny picture though. Everyone except him appears normal.
wolfie wrote:
Maybe he needs a protocol czar?

“Hey, Queenie! How ya doin’?”
Remember the first weird bow of this administration? I mean when Brian Williams bowed to Obama.
The left has gone balmy in the head.
Well, balmier.

There’s that AGW we’ve been hearing about.
Maybe she reminds him of his teacher back in Indonesia.

This is the face Obama saw up close and bowed to. Go figure.

The previous administration’s protocol office always stays until it is gradually replaced. That way new presidents have expert help following the rules immediately.
I don’t think Obama believes that he needs help. He thinks he can do it his way and it will automaticaly be better because he is an Enlightened One.
Idiocy or hyper-narcissism?
The latter, I suppose.
@ buzzsawmonkey:
They practically knocked Prince Philip down pushing him out of the way whilst trying to get that photo with the Queen. It was mortifying.

@ buzzsawmonkey:
You’d think that the All-Knowing-One President of the World would have some interest in or at least some form of curiosity about protocol.
Who can photoshop Palins face onto Iorios body?
@ Urban Infidel:
Maybe he thinks it’s a bunch of Eurocentric, deadwhitemale rules.
Maybe he believes the hippiesque notion that Pure Souls don’t need formal manners, which in any case are stilted and “hypocritical.”
RE: The KSM trials. I am still amazed at the reversal on holding the terror trials in NYC. I never thought it would happen. I thought they would cram that through like they are trying to do with everything else.
Good job to everyone who fought this!
@ Urban Infidel:
Amen!
Next move: force Obama to return the case to the military by refusing to fund any civilian trial. The GOP is working on this and let’s hope they put heavy pressure on their Dem colleagues. Make them take a stand before the election.
In a moment of clarity, Obama acknowledges his inferiority to the maker of the Teleprompters.
@ wolfie:
Forget about the implications with our ability to successfully detain and interrogate enemy combatants, it was a logistical nightmare for lower Manhattan. Every day people would have to got through several checkpoints through the course of their day if they worked down there.
Amazing that Bloomberg finally stood up and said something and it wasn’t just up to a bunch of ‘crazy teabagging islamophobic rightwingers‘ who protested this.
You folks got it all wrong.
Obozo is just checking his shoe top mounted teleprompter.
(His new cuff link teleprompter should be ready any day now.
)
@ buzzsawmonkey:
I thought the same thing!
@ snowcrash:
I thought the same thing about photo shopping Sarah in!
In this case it’s not just a bow, he goes completely limp.
The blogmocracy mind melding is taking place.
@ snowcrash:
Is NOT bowing to the Queen any tackier than giving her an i-pod with HIS speeches loaded on it?
or GMTA
@ mfhorn:
Or the DVD collection to Gordon Brown. LOL. There was some question about them playing on the different DVD format in the UK. Hilarious.
What’s all the fuss about, Bush did a lot of bowing too.
Bow wow

@ Beltfed:
Fortunately, Bush’s head never went below THEIR head level. Obama would have bent double to bow properly to the kids.

Michelle met Queen Latifah ?
She asked him how the Rogaine was working.

I’d say the answer is Yes.
I dunno. Maybe he’s a submissive? Maybe he’s intimidated by women in general.

Why doesn’t Hillary intimidate him?
@ snork:
Ever seen Michelle with that scowl? He’s more afraid of her.
He really is socially such a dork. He has no idea what is appropriate.
And he is President of the United States. I just wanted to spell that out to show the gravity of the situation.

LOL, that’s very good.
Remember after he took possession of the White House, when the fawning media was interviewing him about getting settled in and he mentioned he found the weight room on the second floor? I think he stopped exploring after that and never ran across the Office of Protocol.
@ Opilio:
That’s good, if you could find Sarah smilling, it would be perfect.
Oh my goodness, I killed the thread!
The Admiral,
“I have to take orders from this wimp.”
The Tampa paper tried to cover for him, saying he was leaning in to hear what she had to say.
Like we won’t see that it is obviously a bow.

That’ll work, for chas anyway.
This is what the terrorists did to me — and why they should be tried at Gitmo Warning – graphic photo.

“My own intellectual vanity made it easier for me to reject the notion that some errant feline could know more than we as medical staff did,” Dosa writes. “I felt strangely elated by the notion that I could be completely wrong.”

Appropriate??

He’s not bowing, he uh… dropped his contact! No, he saw a little bird in distress. tjhat’s it. A little bird sweaking away because an evil teabagger stamped on it, and looked down just when the cameraman took the picture. The cameraman probably works for the heartland institute too, and he’s a nazi! Bush bowed!
Narcoleptic. He’s asleep. Why isn’t my avatar wearing any pants? :-[
