wait...didnt they do a bow before the Queen last week?

where was the outrage then?

The only people I see getting seriously bent out of shape over this are the conservatives

maybe a shoe throw will balance things out a bit

Time's explanation

You want to talk about a real snub?

Obama will not throw out the first pitch at the Nats opener next week as he is 'preparing' for a trip...and is a White Sox fan.

This is a great insult to the "Nation's Team"

two posts above yours

and PhiGam, the white house lies because the white lies

You notice it because it's not your guy in there, so you're more objective now, but soon you'll learn that they all lie.

Thanks as per usual...

And in the article it stated how Bush gave an inappropiate handshake to Abdullah years ago...so...?

What's the problem?

BTW approx 20,000 fewer people applied for unemployment last week

That's cuz people are moving out of Michigan and finding jobs in flourishing cities/states. Our unemployment increases by the thousands. I still don't see anything happening with that, just more foreclosures.

Like I said, people get bent out of shape when they think the President wasn't following proper protocol or tradition. They've done it with past Presidents, and they're going to do it with the current President.

People were all over Bush when they thought he made a verbal gaffe or breached custom in another country....I think you may have even posted in a couple of those threads.

Unfortunately, it just comes with the job.

As for the unemployment figures, that's great; at the end of the day, President Obama will get more credit than he deserves or more blame than he deserves for the economic cycles, just like every other President.

Obama's a White Sox fan? Seriously? For whatever reason I would have pegged him for a Cubbies fan.

No, he did not bow to the queen. But you somehow don't think that he bowed to the King of SA either...
