It looked to me like he was introducing the guy behind him LOL. Not good and poor form on the Russian part I would say.

To me it looks like Obama is introducing the ppl to Medwhatsamacallhim.

On another board there was a talk that maybe this is the new embassy staff or something like that meeting the russian president.

EDIT: Besides, you really think the mainstream media would just pass this one if it really was the russians ignoring Obama?

He didn't want to get the swine flu.

The last time I checked, Russia was done with Tsars, and since obama is hooked on czars like a 70's SNL star on cocaine, weel what can you say?

Yeah, I think that's Medved. I don't know about the others, but if Obama was trying to shake the hand of the last guy then he must think he's Stretch-Armstrong...

Yeah, that last one was clearly "and this is Mr...." handmotion, not an invitation to a handshake. My guess is that this is the case with the other ones too.

Really?
You don't think it would have been exposed as a non-story by perhaps the second post when someone might have noticed that.....
