[QUOTE="chessmaster1989"][QUOTE="Pirate700"]Yes, always true. When it's a sign of greeting, BOTH people bow at the same time to then be at equal level. The leaders he bowed to did not bow back at all for that very reason. You do not bow to leaders of other countries. Period. Not even those leaders bow in those cases. You shake hands.

Meh, go read up on the significance of bowing, I don't feel like trying to explain right now. I'm really sick of conservatives trying to make a big deal out of this when it's really nothing to get your panties all in a stir over.
I know the significance of bowing. When you're just using it to say hello or as a greeting, both parties bow as equals and it's typically little more than a little head bow. And no matter what you don't bow as much as Obama did. Again, there is a reason nobody from the other party bowed back and just stared awkwardly at him.
Please stop...you sound just like the guy from the video....Just looking for a fight and a right to complain...
jesus christ, arguing over the significance of bowing?!? this is exactly why the US is where it's at right now, politicians and public worrying about and upset over bull**** like bowing.

Is there a particular problem with bowing? No seriously, I've heard a lot of conservatives complain about it but never heard why it's a bad thing...

America does not bow to ANYONE Exactly. For as long as I can remember, there's always been that slogan "America's number One!" Well duh. "America is number TWO" just doesn't roll off the tongue:roll:
The fuss over Obama bowing is mind bending.bobcheeseball
It's not the end of the world like some make it out to be but it is a rather large cultural paux pas. Just continues to show how in over his head the guy is.
