Knock It Off, Barack: Obama Bows Again… to Mayor of Tampa, Florida
Posted By Vicki McClure Davidson on February 1, 2010
Mr. President, knock it off… this inappropriate bowing was strange when you toured Asia, but now it is spinning into lunacy and is just plain embarrassing. Will he bow should he meet Queen Latifah?
What was he thinking???
Good grief, Pres. Obama bows AGAIN... to Pam Iorio, mayor of Tampa, Florida
From Nice Deb: The Obamabow Follies – Tampa Edition:
I don’t even know what say about this, except that the latest Obamabow will surely be a returning feature on many blogs for the next several years.
Here, he bows to Tampa Mayor Pam Iorio at MacDill Air Force Base on Thursday, Jan. 28, 2010 in Tampa, Fla.
From Canada Free Press: Obama Bows to Tampa Mayor Pam Iorio:
During Obama’s trip to Florida to announce a high-speed railway, he was caught on camera again bowing to the mayor of Tampa. Who the hell bows to a mayor?
At MacDill Air Force Base, Obama lowered his head to Pam Iorio as he shook her hand. Obama continues to show he is an embarrassment to the office.
From Gateway Pundit, Obama Bows Again- To Tampa’s Mayor… For What Reason Is Anyone’s Guess:
At least it wasn’t a full waiter’s bow.
First the media hacks were bowing to Obama. Now Obama is bowing to dictators, emperors and the Tampa mayor. This is getting weird.
From The Powers That Be: Obama Bows Again, This Time to Tampa Royalty:
It staggers the imagination, but I ran across this at Red State. We’ve seen Obama bow to the Saudi King and to the Japanese Emperor, but the Mayor of… Tampa?
[...]
Excuse me, but… HAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHA! Sorry… had to get that out of my system.
The Tampa Mayor looks Asian, other than that I can’t think of a reason Obama would have bowed to her. Maybe she’s the last remaining supporter of Obamacare and another stimulus package, so Obama was overcome with appreciation and couldn’t help himself.
From HillBuzz:
Previously, when he’s bowed to people, it’s been to the King of Saudi Arabia, the Emperor of Japan, and the President of China.
He did not bow to the Queen of England, when he met Her Majesty at Buckingham Palace last year. Instead, he and our current first lady gave the Queen an iPod (with Dr. Utopia’s own speeches on it), treated her essentially like any other senior citizen, and politely moved her around by the shoulders, positioning her for the best photo ops for themselves.

About the author
How long will it take him to drop to his knees and kiss somebody’s feet !
At the same time dropping trow and showing his a$$ to the American People.
The next three years harbor the possibility of being the darkest days for this Country in Her history as far as leadership.
Where are his handlers?
Are they allowing him to make a fool out of himself on purpose ?
We can only speculate at this point the degree to which he will attempt to demean the office of the Presidency in this once sovereign nation in the eyes of the world.
Great post Vicki, where are your patriotic readers’ opinions?
There has got to be someone out there that reads this post and is willing to opine on this issue.
Could it be that you are too intellectually intimidating?
VF doesn’t attract many comments outside of her loyal followers although I enjoy her post.
Inquiring minds want to know.
Sorry, I digress. Back to thread.
IMO, the third world nations are either cheering the downfall of America, or watching in amazement as we are taken apart by an inexperienced social organizer.
Russia and China are saying YOU GO BOY !!!
