No I'm not mocking you, I'm mocking all of the crazies who took Obama's bow to the Saudi king as "evidence" that he is a closet Muslims and was submitting to Islamic rule. Just thought it was sort of funny that no one was making the same ridiculous conclusions when he bowed to some Buddhist royalty.
The objections that I have seen have been based on the objection to the so-called Obama apology tour. That is how the bows have been taken. Those who still believe he is a closet Muslim are pretty much a minority.

Does this mean that Obama is a secret Buddhist and/or is submitting to Buddhist rule?!
Just having some fun. I am not too upset about it.
Where is your sense of humor?
