While I don't fall in the "Bush is an idiot" camp (even though I know quite a few idiots who went to Harvard and Yale and can talk up a room like nobody's business), I have to laugh -- hard -- at "a few verbal gaffes." That's like saying a tornado is a little breeze.

Well, I could say that one does bow to royalty, but one does not typically bow to presidents. Americans don't bow to the president, why should anyone else think that doing so is a sign of respect?
But it's pretty obvious this has nothing to do with your feelings about the bow itself and everything to do with your feelings about Obama himself.
Just be honest about that or get over it already.
