Obama's Russian handshake snub

[Lucrum]

I watched the video several times.
I counted five instances BO extended his right hand. The first arm extension was cutoff in the video. So we can't see the results of that one.

The second and third times I think he was clearly expecting to shake hands and he was definitely snubbed. Watch how his right hand lingers waiting for reciprocation, watch his eyes and facial expression. He's clearly surprised and flustered.

The fourth and fifth times he is making more of a greeting gesture as if to direct the others to shake hands with the men further down the lineup. Hard to know for sure, but he's likely trying to save face at that point.

The important thing is that it gives "real" Americans a warm feeling all over. I trust you're all wearing your patriotic smirks.

You don't know the meaning of the word "American", much less
what it feels like. Based on the comments on this site, canadians
are in no-man's land." Global citizen thunderdog.

The clown shoes suit you. You and Giggles should consider sharing footwear.

So you're making fun of my appearance?

Just a few days ago you claimed to be above that sort of thing.

Clothing, like behavior, is a choice. Must I really explain everything? Really? Or do you just play a moron on the Internet?

So you dressing in woman's cloths and polishing knobs is a choice? And not some mysterious gene?

Thanks for clearing that up.

Hey why do they call you Thunderdog anyway?

Is it because you bark like a dog when your butt pirate buddies are pounding your ass?

That's quite a visual you have constructed, Lucy. You must have put a lot of time and thought into it. A lot. Whatever floats your boat. And, once again, the Internet doofus, true to form, confuses orientation with choice. In this case, demonstrably your own.

Quote from Ivanovich:

You don't even have to look carefully. It's rather obvious he's introducing them to Medvedev and that it's Obama's delegation.

That's bullshit. You can tell by the pained look on Obama's face he felt slighted.

This is so pathetic. Obama snubbed?

Watch the last few handshakes - when Obama is closer to the camera - OBVIOUSLY he is introducing people. He extends his hand and Medvedev immediately shakes the hand of the person whom Obama motioned to.

Unless of course, you think Medvedev is shaking hands WITH HIS OWN PEOPLE?

IDIOTS

(If you right wing nutjobs want to criticize Obama - there are A LOT of other reasons/legitimate grievances out there.

Focusing on Race, "birthplace/birth certificate", and stupid videos only make you guys look like pathetic sore losers.

BOTH PARTIES SUCK. Wake the F up!

It's really quite simple, as I only have one guiding principle. When idiots wear clown shoes, I merely point at them.

is that an original quip?

if so, it's quite lame.


Here's a principle, when discussing idiocy, and pointing it out, best not sound stupid
