Charles,

Regarding Bush, and the Saudis, Bush was a complete horse’s ass, groomed to be so by Daddy Bush’s long, and lucrative association with the Magic Kingdom. He was lead around by the nose, willingly or not, time and again, and it may be justly said that he FIGURATIVELY bowed down to the Saudis, but he did not, publicly, ever bow to the Saudi King, as did Obama. To use this particular episode to state that he ACTUALLY did so, is, I believe, an uncharacteristic error on your part.

We all make ‘em, now and then.

Well, you go ahead and believe that a bow is not a bow, because he’s accepting a medal from Abdullah.

Because that’s so much better than what Barack Obama did.
