An excellent comment on proper bow technique and Barack Obama’s attempt at it:
Foreigners are not expected to bow, as they lack the requisite knowledge of the elaborate etiquette governing this for at least 1000 years.
This BHO bow, because of its degree of declination and the shamefully rounded back, is in Japanese eyes the bow of a crippled toilet attendant to his supreme master.

“[Mohammed's] goal in the legal system is not to beat the rap. His goal is to use the legal system as a forum for his own ideas and to embrace martyrdom through that system.”
I hope I am wrong on how this plays out, but I suspect that “Judgment at Nuremburg” this will not be. Holder and Obama gave KSM a hell of a last request, a chance to play (granted KSM’s own sick twisted version) of “A Man of All Seasons” or “Braveheart.” Take your choice.
Now it is clear…

Ron Kuby is right about this:
“[Mohammed's] goal in the legal system is not to beat the rap. His goal is to use the legal system as a forum for his own ideas and to embrace martyrdom through that system.”

Just remember “…meet the new boss, same as the old boss!”
I guess Lincoln was right about “some of the people”.
