Obama: Who You Going to Believe, Us Or Your Lying Eyes?

B.J. Clinton denied the plan meaning of the word sex.   Now the Obama  admminstration has denied the plain meaning of the word bow, Ben Smith, Politico [1]:

The White House is denying that the president bowed to King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia at a G-20 meeting in London, a scene that drew criticism on the right and praise from some Arab outlets.

“It wasn’t a bow. He grasped his hand with two hands, and he’s taller than King Abdullah,” said an Obama aide, who spoke on the condition of anonymity.

Memeorandum [2] has a lot of blog reax, some quite hilarious.   None that I have found that actuallybelieve the explaination:
