Reset Button Broken? Obama’s Handshake Snubbed by Russian Leaders? Tough to Determine…
Posted By Vicki McClure Davidson on July 15, 2009
Word on the street is that Russian politicians snubbed Obama by refusing to shake his hand during his visit to Moscow.
I’ve included two slightly different videos of the Moscow “handshake snubbing” to give altered views. Watch Obama’s outstretched hand closely in both and his face in both.
Hard for me to determine. While it certainly appears the first few times I viewed it that the Russian leaders blow right past him, he could be gesturing TO the men in the handshake-receiving line. Not a peep of speculation about it by the liberal mainstream media, natch. Would be great if they did a serious play-by-play as they did with Obama’s “Ass-Gate butt leering” moment in Italy last week. Naysayers claim the video has been doctored and that he wasn’t snubbed. Maybe that is indeed the case, but I’m still relishing the possibility of the opposite.
With all his previous snubs of world leaders, it could be a golden “what goes around, comes around” moment. Bet Nicolas Sarkozy and Gordon Brown are *wink, wink* slapping their thighs while guffawing.
