The White House is dangling that option over the Russians as Moscow considers a temporary asylum petition from Edward Snowden, the American accused of leaking information about classified U.S. intelligence programs. But officials have privately signaled that scrapping the bilateral talks would also be retaliation for other areas of disagreement with Russia, including its continued support for Syrian President Bashar Assad's attacks against civilians.

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.

Putin should declare Barry persona non grata base on Russia’s recent homosexuality laws.

I thought Barry told Pooty that he’d be “more flexible” after he fooled the idiots into electing him a second time. Maybe Pooty just wants to see how “flexible” he is. Shut up Barry and eat your Borscht.

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

Maybe Pootie could sequester Obama in that Moscow airport holding area indefinitely...
