I'd say Putin told Oabma things that Obama wouldn't want the world to hear....

He had to take Rice as a witness....coward needed a girl with him.

Putin oversees 140 million people and some nukes of debatable reliability.

Hu Jinping runs the Communist Party of China overseeing 1.6 billion people and the worlds second largest (maybe first) economy.

And they gots nooks too.

Who’s the real power?

Remember Obama told Putin’s aide a while back “not to worry, the Constitution was DEAD”...(paraphrase). I wonder what Obama is giving away now???

'...the president vowed to 'redouble' fight against ISIS.'

The problem with 'redoubling,' the fight is that 2x0=0. He could have promised to quadruple the fight and it would still amount to nothing.

The islamists want the west to burn and Obama is their #1 cheerleader and enabler.

Notice who is staying on his side, and who is acting like the child straining to hear.

Obama is almost half-way to Putin and Putin is just sitting there.

If Obama isn’t bowing, he’s continually finding a new way to look inferior, or at best the subserviant pose to the alpha dog.

Our CIC should hold his own in these exchanges, and Obama hasn’t a clue how to.

And further, 30 minutes? What can you resolve in 30 minutes, and these two have a lot to talk about?
