Obama and Putin are odd couple at Beijing summit

....encounters between Barack Obama and Vladimir Putin during an Asia-Pacific summit in China on Tuesday spoke volumes about the chilly state of relations....

"It's beautiful, isn't it?" Putin was overheard saying in English in Obama’s general direction, referring to the ornate conference room.

"Yes," Obama replied, coldly, according to journalists who witnessed the scene.

I've just gotta say: if this were a Republican president, and relations were this bad with: Russia, Israel, etc. the media would be talking about it 24/7.

Obama is a miserable failure domestically and in foreign policy.

The media gives him a pass.

Pathetic.

Note the look on Obama's face... The FSB profilers told Putin EXACTLY what to do, to get under The MEssiah's skin.

Obama prefers to be the deliverer of the controlling gesture.

No they're not.

They're two side of the same tyrannical coin.

Is that why they put OZero with the wives? They didn’t trust him behind the men?

Worse than that, they don’t consider him to be a real man.

Russia has too many white people for Obama's liking.
That's why the pseudo-American that's pResident of the US hates Russia.

Note the positioning. Putin is next to the Chinese Premier in almost every shot, while Obama is relegated to conversing with the wives. “http://i2.cdn.turner.com/cnn/dam/assets/141111065200-obama-putin-china-horizontal-large-gallery.jpg";
