Sage2, Sorry, Sgt. Crowley is most likely a fine person and a good police officer. But the POTUS he is not, this is all "mountains out of molehills" crap. Get over the pic of the President & the Saudi King will you? I looked at the same pic and I saw a much taller man leaning over and down to shake the hand of a shorter man. Shall I now make a big deal over George Bush kissing and holding hands with the same man? You need to grow up.
