The bow was America's finest hour

"I think it's fundamentally harmful and it shows in my mind that this is a guy, a president, who would bow, for example, who doesn't fully understand or have the same perception of the U.S. role in the world that I think most Americans have" — Dick Cheney on Obama's bow to the Emperor of Japan

That seals it. I was wavering for a while back there — maybe the bow was too low, too deferential — but if Cheney thinks that, it can only mean one thing: the bow was Obama's finest foreign policy hour — maybe America's, too.
