Obama insults Russia
Permalink  

Obama, in a trip to Russia ostensibly to fix bad relations between our two countries, decided to insult them instead. It's all over the press in Russia and Ukraine that Obama call Putin president of Russia, instead of Medvedev who is currently president.
This isn't a first for Obama. Shortly after taking office he sent a letter to the President of France. Only he put the previous president's name in the letter.

Here's a video of people declining to shake his hand on that trip to Russia.

It's pretty amazing that people would snub any head of state like that, but especially unsettling when it's your country's leader.

There's a picture of O and Medvedev that was featured on Drudge -- I'll try to find a copy and attach it.
