White House Claims Obama Didn't Bow to King
Wednesday, April 8, 2009 11:34 PM
Barack Obama's White House says the president did not bow to the Saudi King when they met during the recent G-20 meeting in London.
If you think he did, you're just believing your lying eyes.
So reports Politico's Ben Smith Wednesday.
"It wasn't a bow. He grasped his hand with two hands, and he's taller than King Abdullah," an
anonymous Obama aide told Politico.
The aide made the assertion despite a video showing Obama bending almost to a 45 degree angle as he met King Abdullah.
And Politico notes that the Arab press have reported on the "bow" — with favorable reviews.
The occasion may mark the first time a U.S. president has bowed to a foreign potentate.
Look at it for yourself. Is this a bow, or not? Who you gonna believe, Obama or your lyin' eyes?
