CBS reports that when Barack Obama and Vladimir Putin met with the press after their long private discussion, "The two men barely looked at each other. You could just feel, sort of, the tension between them. And the body language really represented how far apart the two leaders remain on the issue of Syria."

“....and unlike our president, Putin does what he has to do to look out for the interests of his country.”
.
And that is the crux of the matter — Putin LOVES his country and Bambi has contempt for America.
This is just a little lovers' spat.
Barry must have torn his pantyhose or something so he was pouting and was refusing Pooty-Poot's advances, so of course Pooty-Poot was becoming a bit cross and impatient.
Later on, once Barry assumed his normal submissive role, all was back to normal. Nothing to see here...
...and I bet it was caught on camera. Just optics.....they're buddies dontchya know.
Obammy undoubtedly deserves it, but I get tired of Russian leaders lecturing American presidents.
Krushchev lectured and threatened JFK on their first meeting in Vienna. Evidently it shook Kennedy up pretty thoroughly, and left Krushchev with the impression that JFK was a weakling.
And that seems to be the genesis of the Cuban missile crisis.
Obama wouldn’t last five seconds in the Outfit. He’s what they call a Rush Street commando - a bustout, a fraud. But he managed to spread his camel shit all the way to Pennsylvania Avenue.
I can hear Colonel Jessep right now:
All you did was weaken a country today,
Obama. That’s all you did. You put
people in danger. Sweet dreams, son.

Sounds like a goodwill tour from the Reverends Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton is in order.
Putin looks out for his own interests and the interests of his friends. He is not and never will be a benevolent leader of his people. He is a ruthless and calculating man who will work to improve the economy of his nation because it will enrich him and his friends.
You don’t make it far in the KGB without understanding power and the need to constantly gain the advantage in every way. There are very few Americans that would understand this, but it is truth. Putin likes Obama because he is weakening his main adversary, but he will never respect him. Given Obama’s past associations I would speculate that Putin probably knows far more about the real Obama than we do.
Say what you want about Bush, but the Russians respected him because he was resolute in the face of adversity. You don’t have to be a KGB ironman to gain their respect, they just have to understand that you mean what you say and will follow through no matter what.
Obama is weak and his support of the Arab Spring has created dangers that Putin understands. Obama weakened U.S. interests in the region and I wish that Obama understood radical Islam like Putin does. Putin will never like or respect a community organizer. Putin is taking the new chessboard of the Middle East and positioning himself and his friends to profit from it. Never forget, Russia makes money when oil prices are high and they profit selling arms and ammunition to the Arab regimes that oppose Israel. This is a game the Russians have been playing for years.
Putin is all about Putin. I am certain he views Obama as a chump.
“....I would speculate that Putin probably knows far more about the real Obama than we do.”

I would speculate that you are wrong on that point.
The sad part is that there are plenty of people in high places in the MSM and in government, PUBs and RATs alike, who know everything there is to know about Obama but are not willing to take action because his presidency benefits them personally today and in the future.
Long before 0 made a run for the presidency, our national security agencies had fully identified him and identified everyone in American politics. If they didn’t, they would not have been doing their job.
Obama's weakness is altering the correct path... he needs to look out for the interests of the United States - his view needs to be clearer.
'Doting court eunuchs' of the New York Times and Washington Post have failed to notice...
Note how set Putin is holding his mouth in the second photo. "What I have to do for Mother Russia"
Most world leaders have no respect whatsoever for our spineless panzie president. Gee, who would think that if you go around apologizing for your nation all the time, it would lead to mockery from all of your allies and enemies. Obama gets no respect from anyone, deserves no respect.
That goes 100 times over for a bad ass like Putin. I hate Putin but he would eat Obama’s lunch in every conceivable way if the two were left alone for any length of time — physically, mentally, verbally, charismatically.
Obama looks flat lost up there. No clue what he wants to achieve.
I like the way Putin kept sneaking glances at Obama as if thinking “WTF are you doing here? You are wasting my time.” Like he was looking for the remotest sign of fight from Obama and seeing nothing but the empty suit he is.
Yes, Obama wants a radical Muslim Syria, just as he wanted Egypt and Libya to be fundamentalist Muslim. But unlike the way he can browbeat the spineless Republicans, Putin owns Obama and you can see how he just withered beside Putin.
Obama is used to having massed groups of union thugs and Chicago strongment do all his heavy lifting. He is just a front man for the massive strength of Soros’s union/mob army.
On his own, Obama is a 90lb weakling and against Putin, he really looks it. Putin looks like he wants to kick Obama’s ass just to watch him cry like a girl and beg him to stop.
Not even close. Putin knows how to use Obama. Putin wants to be Obama's bestest friend when Obama is promising to reduce US nuclear arsenals. Not so much, when Obama wants Putin's close Syrian ally to step down and allow Syria to be ruled by the Muslim Brotherhood. Nope, Putin is NOT going to allow that.
Putin doesn't play with Obama. He knows how to use him. Obama is a clueless dupe perfectly suited to be manipulated by a master like Putin.
We need a Reagan and we have a arrogant black Islamic Carter. Still hopelessly weak on foreign affairs and dealing with strong international leaders. Just a weakling.
A look of absolute contempt in Putin’s eyes. It is like a college professor being interrupted by an unruly Freshman.

New Axis of Evil.........SYRIAIRANRUSSIACHINA PLAN WAR GAMES (on The Drudge Report!!!)
On FoxNews this morning they touched on the economic aspects of the G20 summit. Soon the discussion turned to who is leading out in the West on economic matters.
They mentioned Reagan and Thatcher, and lamented that nobody is leading out in the West. They mentioned Merkle but didn’t see her as an elevated individual.
If they even mentioned Obama, I don’t recall them doing so.
Oh sure, it was on camera. The interesting part is that it was Obama sliding his chair over to Putin, not the other way around. It’s my take that Putin has studied his enemy, and has him pegged to a tee. He can walk all over this guy, and he knows it. I may be a little off base here, but I question if Romney is all that much better. He may in fact be. I don’t have a reference on these matters when it comes to him.
President stands upright while his Gorb reaches out to shake hands.
