Take A Bow… Again – - Obama… Remember Pearl Harbor, Bataan and REAL TORTURE of POW’s?

Dear Barack,
Unlike you, my father fought in World War II. I remember growing up in the ’60′s hearing about the horrors of the Japanese in the Pacific. I had a next door neighbor who spoke of the kamikaze attacks upon his ship in the waning days of the war. Of course to our generation (and we are the same age), it is beyond silly to hold those grudges. I really don’t
However – to bow to the Emperor of Japan is a sad thing. You do not respect American sacrifice. This picture from the LA Times is beyond sick. It shows you are not worth of the office you hold.

My Dad was in the Burma jungle ( the White Man’s Grave ) for 2 1/2 years during WW2. He was with 40 Americans and 200 Gurkah troops. I never once heard my father say the word Jap; he always said Japanese soldier. He did have respect for the soldiers , since he was one. But, they never took a single prisoner; and if they did, the Gurkah troops were in charge of prisoners ( so, no prisoners ). My father would vomit at the sight of an American president bowing to ANYONE.
Oh Yeah;; as far as National Security goes; my Dad, his men and the Gurkah troops were in Burma for nearly a year before the president told America we were in Burma.
My father was a Navy pilot in WWII. He flew PBYs out of a base in the Phillipines. He was the most honorable, civilized, generous human being I have ever met.
He had more courage and patriotism and integrity in his little finger than B. Hussein Obama has in his whole family tree. I can’t imagine what Dad would think of all this, but I think most of the “Greatest Generation” had to be gone for this horrific election result to have taken place.
Here is a slightly different take on the “bow”:

Embarrassing an Ally
Over the weekend President Obama declared himself the first Pacific president. I’m not sure if that was before or after he bowed to the Japanese emperor while trying to shake his hand at the same time. Unfortunately, that’s not exactly how the Japanese perform their customary bow.
ABC’s Jake Tapper reports that at least one Japanese newspaper is not printing the picture of the president’s mortifying bow because the Japanese are embarrassed by his behavior. A scholar of traditional Japan tells Mr. Tapper, “The bow… did not just display weakness in Red State terms, but evoked weakness in Japanese terms… The last thing the Japanese want or need is a weak-looking American president.”
