bow: to bend or incline (the knee, body, or head) in worship, submission, etc. Yeah, sounds about right. The world apology tour continues... posted by

Back in 1994, the NY Times was ready to jump Clinton for *almost* bowing to the Emperor. There was this war fought in 1776 so that Americans would no longer bow to royalty. But last fall you all voted for hope and change, so start practicing your bows and curtsies. posted by

Dick Cheney greated him like a man.
So did Putin.
Hell, even the prime minister of Slovenia didn't bow.
