The loons at Fox are beating up on President Obama after his bow while meeting the Emperor of Japan...but apparently they forgot their history, because President Obama is not the first President to make such a bow.

Watch a montage of Fox's absurd attacks, along with the video and images they ignored:

As noted in the video, not only did Presidents Nixon and Eisenhower bow to foreign leaders (Nixon to the Emperor of Japan, Eisenhower to Charles De Gaulle), but President Bush actually held hands with and kissed Saudi Crown Prince Abdullah.

Of course, those simple facts didn't stop Fox (including Karl Rove) from jumping in on the Obama-bashing action, once again proving that when it comes to Fox, news has nothing to do with it.
