LOL! That's great. That's exactly the spin the MSM will try to give it.
No, to his own cabinet.
It's not spin if it's true. I don't give a rat's patootie what the MSM does; I just call them as I see them. And I just don't see clear evidence of a snub here.
Probably a better question would be, when haven't I seen other presidents gesture in a similar manner, because I'm sure they all have extended their arms while introducing people, at one point or another. It's a common gesture, after all.
Yeah, they really hate black people in Russia.
Thats an outrage actually, I think they not only disrespected Obama, they disrespected the USA, but maybe thats just me. Very unprofessional.***
Americans disrespected themselves by voting for him.
from what I’ve been reading there’s a huge amount of prejudice on skin color in Russia no matter what office of the land you may hold -I’m not surprised, and it’s something that’s not really talked about over there either.
Come on now, he is introducing the man walking behind him to the people that are shaking the mans hand. Obama already knows these people, it is obvious. Of course this is IMHO.
I love it!
I do not care who insults this impostor. I would not show him an ounce of respect. Why should anyone else.
So he's being snubbed by his own people then. ;)
That’s what it also looks like to me ... he’s introducing them to medvedev.
Supporters of the Soviet Union were profoundly antiamerican, almost by definition. Arguably the Soviet Union was more pernicious than Nazi Germany. The Russians just had better press in the West.
Also, I note this line of folks are likely waiting to take their seats at the table. If that is the case, then it is likely that they are standing near their own chairs --- and at the end of the video the Kenyan Clown is shown seated on the opposite side of the table.
My experience with two party meetings is that each party generally occupies one side of the table, much as one would expect from the common formulations of "meeting across the table" and "face-to-face meetings."
There was a video a while back showing people in an official receiving line snubbing -7bama in Germany, too. He would put his hand out to shake and they would ignore it. Time after time. It was blatant.
The One doesn't seem to be igniting the world with mutual love-fests.
Agree with you.
And where was the media on this?
I have not found that one, yet. But here is one of 0bama being snubbed in a Saudi receiving line. Deliberate No Hand Shake To Obama Video
Maybe his failing to shake the proffered hand of Argentina's President Cristina Kirchner is coming back to bite him. Cristina Kirchner , Obama
It could easily be that this Saudi snub is the one I was thinking of. I knew there was something like this. My memory just ... what was the question?
I would not shake hands with Odumbo either, for he possesses zero moral character.
