#1 IIUC Asians bow to all. Barry's got his own weird custom going on. He refused to bow to Queen Liz but bowed to King Fahd and to Hirohito's spawn and to a latina mayor from Florida. Joker.

#2 Well I suppose we should be thankful Barry doesn't left the tails of his coat and curtsey as well.

#3 In Japan you bow to a superior. The superior makes only slight head nod.

#4 Courtesy to the female of the species, perhaps?

#5 Where did he learn this? It isn't taught anywhere in the country. What used to be taught was that a free man bows to nobody.

#7 What's the big deal? Bush also bowed to the mayor of Tampa. In fact, this is all Bush's fault anyway. Bammo has to bow to restore US credibility in this, uh, region. Bammo is also a tall man, and has to bend over to shake hands with the mayor. So you guys are just trying to make something out of nothing. Besides, you are all racists for even bringing it up.

#8 Geez, last time he bowed I was going to make a snarky comment along the lines of: "Stop me before I bow again!" - but I figured it was over and done. The guy's beyond parody.

#11 He's probably just trying to minimize previous bows.

#12 Just getting Americans used to bending over...
