When is a bow not a bow?

Apparently, The White House is denying that the now famous bow by Obama to King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia ever took place. According to their explanation, Obama was simply bending over to grasp the king's hand with two hands because he was taller than the king.

Kind of sound vaguely 'Clintonesque' to me, but you be the judge....Notice how Obama clearly does not offer his second hand until after the bow...

It was so obvious a bow that I don't understand why the administration just doesn't admit it and move on. Having Gibbs go out there and specifically deny it is just pathetic
