President Barack Obama was intent on getting the upper hand as he greeted Russia's Vladimir Putin at the G-20 summit on Thursday, according to body language experts who watched the frosty exchange.
From a jacket-buttoning pause to a hard-pumping handshake, Obama displayed tell-tale signs of dominance after he alit from a limo in front of St. Petersburg's Konstantin Palace, where Putin waited to meet him, communication experts said.
There was no outright hostility, but the chill between the two world leaders at loggerheads over NSA leaker Edward Snowden and a strike against Syria was evident in clenched-jaw smiles and lack of eye-contact and touching, the experts said.

The fact is Putin has been slapping obomber about the head and shoulders for quite some time now.

By what demented and delusional measure could that limp-wristed, pencil-necked pansy ever be considered dominant?I could mention how, but it involves lots of oil and restraints...

Probably to bypass the meet-and-greet reception. He’s running short of allies.

Those pictures of Hussein in that little car just freaks me out - if I didn’t know him, I wouldn’t talk to that little wimp. Putin, on the other hand, yes, yes, yes.
Let’s put it another way, which one would you want protecting you? Sissy boy or macho man?

Nothing worse when being a wallflower than to have the world’s press take notice of that fact.

Great link ... off to read.
BTW, compare that video to the NBC edited version. Notice NBC edited out the portion where Obama seems afraid to touch Putin’s arm.
