He's just showing something we don't see enough of now days, "RESPECT."
-
Yes, but he's not taking it upon himself to give 'shoulder rubs', like the last guy.

Suppressed news WTF! It is only a sign of respect,just like us shaking hands. She is an older person to My God what the fuck are you talking about. When in Rome do as the Romans do. You don't shake hands in Japan that is it. Its not the sign of be as you said "LACKY TOAD"

This news was not suppressed in any way. The pictures is on the front page of the Huff Po.
But more importantly who gives a shit?

You cannot say that a news story has been suppressed when it shows up with a count of 194 stories in a google search.
If it has not been shown on TV news (which it may very well have) it is becuase it is a non-story. The President shwoing respect to figureheads and leaders of other nations in a manner that is consistent with their customs is not a bad thing.
You are grasping at straws.
Try again.

@funnicus
It is not badgering you to comment on a story YOU posted nor is it badgering you to point out your fiddle fart of an analysis of that story is misconstrued and misrepresented in order to further your ideological opposition to the POTUS.
I will tell you the same thing I tell the rest of the nitpickers. Get back to me when you have something substantial to complain about and I will be glad to discuss it and may even agree with you.
But if all you want to do is complain about the man's choice of ties, well that is just petty.

Wrong again JollyGoodColon
To not bow would be like their leaders coming here and not shaking our President's hand.
It is a matter of customs of different cultures. When in Rome and all that.
Understanding different culture may be difficult but if you read a little you might figure it out.

So even though bowing to YOU may seem a sign of weakness that is not what it means to them and that is all that matters.
