Why didn't he bow to the Emperor of Japan or the Queen then? They are royalty.

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.

With this logic its not okay for anyone who doesn't like Obama to criticize him. If Bush bowed before the King and then lied about it I would be just as outraged, I assure you. I was upset over the hand holding, and that's nowhere near as bad as this (nor did he lie about it/ deny it.)
