TOKYO – President Obama bowed to Japan’s Emperor Akihito, much to the dismay of America’s Republicans!

President Barack Obama is on a week-long tour of Asia, meeting with national leaders and discussing international policies. He spent Saturday meeting with Japan’s Emperor Akihito and Empress Michiko.

Upon arriving at a private lunch with the couple at the Imperial Palace, Obama did what some are considering the unthinkable: bow.

Obama critics are up in arms over the gesture, with descriptions ranging from “embarrassing” to “treasonous.”

There seem to be two common criticisms,  one being that Obama was displaying fealty to a foreign royalty, which goes against the foundation of America. The other opinion is that Obama lacks a general understanding of customs in other countries.

This is partially due to an earlier bow this year to Saudi King Abdullah.

However, others have come to Obama’s defense, saying that Obama had simply been observing protocol. “I think that those who try to politicise those things are just way, way, way off base,” said a senior administration official.

A Republican student group put together a video of other officials greeting the Emperor from the past three years:

I’m madder than a geisha in a tanning bed!

So now the Teleprompter Kid is going around bowing to our old enemies!

I know the Japs go in for all that bowing stuff, but the Communist-in-Chief is (allegedly) an American. AND the President, God help us! He’s not supposed to prostate himself to some foreigner king – especially not the offspring of that bug-eyed freak we had to nuke TWICE to get his mind right.

It’s like I always say: we didn’t nuke the Japs near enough. They’re still half-crazy, with their nutty game shows and used underwear vending machines. These people eat raw meat with sticks, people! They watch naked fat guys jump around in jock straps! Does that sound civilized to you?

I don’t care about that peace treaty we signed with ‘em – I still hate the Japs!

OK, so maybe O-Bow-Ma kissed the Saudi King’s ring because they’ve got all that oil, but what do the Japs have that we need? Will they cut off our supply of comic books and Godzilla movies?

O-Bow-Ma can’t be bothered saluting the flag or saying the Pledge, but he bends over to the slant-eyed sun king, and some camel driver in a turban?

We don’t have a President – we’ve got one of those plastic water drinking bird toys with the little hat.

The Teleprompter Kid spends more time bent over than a Hanoi hooker!

My fellow Americans: will we survive until 2012? I don’t think my old ticker can last that long!
