    The Little Red Hen
    Hooray for a good work ethic! The little red hen asks but receives no help in her efforts to put bread on the table. Yet all who wouldn't help would like to eat. In a refreshingly old-fashioned triumph of moral consequences, they don't get to!

Obama bows to Emperor Akihito

This is just idiotic:

Keep in mind how casually he and Michelle greeted Queen Elizabeth, with the FLOTUS rubbing the queen's back with inappropriate familiarity.

But then, Obama has made it a point to diss our allies and pay unwarranted homage to political scoundrels.

This is his second bow - guess he didn't get the memo after the one below to the Saudi king:

It's just ridiculous. Where are his protocol people? American Presidents DO NOT BOW. It's really pretty simple.

It's like every day he finds a way to be less presidential than the last.

Barbara, first of all I love reading your web site!!! This behavior is truly frightening for me and I wonder what will happen to our country. I pray constantly for God to intervene.

I wish we could impeach Obama. I really want our country back to the way our Founding Fathers initiated it.

If Obama can get a Nobel for what he "might" do, why can't we impeach him on the same concept?

I don't care if it's a cultural thing or not, the U.S. President, by virtue of the fact that we are one of the most powerful nations in the world and he's supposed to represent us, does NOT bow to anyone.
