GASP.

OBAMA USED A CULTURALLY ACCEPTABLE GREETING WHEN MEETING WITH A FOREIGN LEADER.

HOW DARE HE RESPECT JAPANESE CULTURE. DOESN'T HE KNOW THAT HE SHOULDN'T ACKNOWLEDGE ANY CULTURAL NORMS BUT AMERICA'S? OF COURSE, HE'S PRACTICALLY FOREIGN HIMSELF.

AMERICA DOES NOT DEFER AND IT DOES NOT RESPECT.

HOW CAN WE GET THOSE FOREIGNERS TO DO WHAT WE WANT UNLESS WE INTIMIDATE THEM WITH OUR SUPERIORNESS?

AMERICA IS EVERYTHING.

RWAR.

Yeah, exactly. It's like the idea that America isn't the coolest, most awesomest kid in the playground is completely foreign to them.

And ditto on Cheney, too.
