Bowing? That's just WRONG. Holding hands, that's fine. Kissing, also good. But never a bow.

When is a bow not a bow?



White House: No bow to Saudi (Politico ^ | April 8, 2009 | Ben Smith)

"It wasn't a bow. He grasped his hand with two hands, and he's taller than King Abdullah," said an Obama aide, who spoke on the condition of anonymity.

1. I'm not sure we're that much better in our reactions
DU's tantrummed out about bowing quite a bit as well, lots of makeshitup babbling about subservience to foreign despots and etc etc etc.

Of course, either side freaking out over it is silly.
