The Obama Administration has its moments.
Obama bows to Muslim leaders of other countries.
Obama bows to Japanese Emperor Akihito.
Obama bows to the Chinese Leader, and apparently just about everyone.
Then there's the obvious understanding of other issues of diplomatic protocol.
The Queen of England receives an iPod with pictures of one her visits to America, and incidentally loaded with copies of the Best of Obama Speeches.
And then there was a gift of classic American movies for England's Mr. Brown, apparently purchased in America, that aren't compatible with English DVD players.
Now there is this. It is a photo taken at the Open Government Partnership, and it's another (hilarious) example of this Administration's "seventh-grade schoolboy" approach to diplomacy. After all, iPods and old movies? Amazing.
And the world thinks we elected this guy because of his genius, leadership, and experience? Amazing.
Of course, they gave him a Nobel Peace Prize practically before he even uttered a word as President, so I guess we aren't the only ones who should be embarrassed.
Just smile and wave, boys, smile and wave.
