Huh!

Have been trying to muzzle myself, but after seeing the video clip of the President bowing to the Saudi King, I have to say something. OK, it's not a huge deal to me that he actually did bow. He should have known better. What gets me is that the White House denies that he bowed. After folks have seen the footage, they have the gall to say that?!???!

Well, to give the President a tiny bit of credit, my husband said that when Bush was President, he inappropriately kissed another leader. Fine. But I'm not sure that they lied about it.

Reminds me of the Clinton years, when something would happen and Bill would blatantly lie about it. I got used to rubbing my eyes, wondering if I was seeing things clearly. Well, yeah. It's not in the interpretation. Shoot, if the President flubbed up, just admit it and go from there. I'll feel much better about the guy if you do that. (Ok, I exaggerate. Can't say as I'll ever feel better about the current President. The US is on a downward spiral in the toilet, if you ask me.) But to say it didn't happen doesn't help one bit. We're not idiots out here. Besides, the Saudis are pleased about the bow. Of course they are. I would be too. But be honest. That's all I'm asking.

Off to crank up the Backstreet Boys CD in my headphones. That'll cheer me. :)
