This Time Obama Bows to Tampa's Mayor Tuesday, 02 Feb 2010 07:49 PM Article Font Size By: Dave Eberhart Tampa Mayor Pam Iorio on Tuesday brushed off the brouhaha over an AP photograph that showed President Barack Obama bowing to her last week at MacDill Air Force base in Tampa, saying the president was only being “gracious,” according to a Fox News report. Obama stopped by Tampa to announce $8 billion in federal stimulus for high-speed rail lines, with $1.25 million earmarked for Florida. But the announcement of the latest stimulus package was to some extent overshadowed by another episode of Bowgate. The president weathered a storm of controversy last year when he bowed to Japanese Emperor Akihito and tipped over again at the waist before Saudi Arabia's King Abdullah. This time with the Tampa mayor, the President bent at a 45-degree angle when greeting the woman, who is about his same height. The caption to the AP photo that captured the moment read: “President Barack Obama bows to Tampa Mayor Pam Iorio.” Iorio told Fox News, “It's hard for me to believe that this is such a major issue. It is an unusual photograph, but ... I wish people could all meet President Obama face-to-face, but he is a kind and sincere and gracious individual and you really see that when you meet him.” Iorio added that the presidential gesture did not rate “the kind of analysis that's been going on.” Over the weekend, the photo was flying around the blogosphere, often appearing alongside pics of other presidential bows. © Newsmax.

Keep defending, we all might be doing this one day..... I might try this at the next union meeting. I might try this when I shop at Wal-Mart passing all the other customers. I might walk into a biker bar and introduce myself this way to everyone enjoying a cold one. Gotta fit in ya know.

Next time we have a contract modification meeting with International I expect everyone to address your appointed and elected members this way. Walk up shake hands and take a bow. Start showing some respect. If that don't work just appoligize. That works all the time. Hey you never know you might be the next on the list to get the Nobel Peace Prize.

I'm not "defending" anyone. Just pointing out it is "much ado" about nothing. It has happened many times throughout history, there just wasn't as many "Media cameras" to catch it.

Walmart's people probably bow to all of the slave labor using overseas producers after they pay them a little of nothing. Then they load their shit up on their very own ship and bring it over here to shove up all you sucker's asses who shop there. |

In most martial arts you bow to each other before you fight. So maybe he is getting ready to roundhouse kick em.
