Ovagina is afraid because behind closed doors Putin keeps putting him in a headlock and giving him noogies and atomic wedgies.

I’m guessing Putin already canceled his meeting with the Mack daddy and is just giving Obama an opportunity to save face. Putin leads, the dumb POS follows.

Remember when we had a president that relished the opportunity to meet the Russians?
