Floor-cleaning or genuflecting?

Ed Morrissey explodes the meme that the left is trying to make reality that President Obama was just trying to pick something up off the floor when he bowed before Saudi King Abdullah. He notes that, throughout the bow, Obama’s right hand is engaged in a handshake and his left hand remains in view.

A bonus item from Ed – Arab News, the English-language mouthpiece of the House of Saud, dismissed Obama’s new Afghanistan/Pakistan policy while praising his fealty to the followers of Islam.
