How embarrassing. I thought that button was "reset"?

And this, after he gave them the store in nuclear disarmament.
LOL the racist bigots on Ed Hale's Plains Radio forum fell for this too!

Why do people who attack Obama always need to resort to tabloid tactics that take images out of context to tell a completely false story?

It's as if these people are completely unable to think for themselves and just consume whatever the right-wing propaganda machine churns out.

I've always heard that conservatives are supposed to be morally superior, yet all I continuously encounter are lies ... sinful lies.

Just the other day that image was posted of Obama supposedly checking out a woman's ass at the G-8 Summit. Come to find out, he was helping a woman up the steps and looking down at the step.

Lies...lies...lies. What a great president we have. Couldn't ask for a better representative of our nation.

Sorry, that video showed exactly that - him checking her out.

Fact: When you introduce your delegates to a guest (Russian President Medvedev happens to be that in the video in the OP), you don't shake hands. Now that things have been spelled out in simple words, you (and others like you) should know better.

I can assure you, NO world leader is going to refuse to shake another world leader's hand. The political repercussions are simply too great, even if one is at war with the other nation.

These situations that happened to Bush and Obama are protocol - perhaps they should rethink it for it never looks right.

Sorry, the video has been widely debunked--and not just by FOX (which originally aired it--go figure).

Neo-cons are such pathetic and transparent Neanderthals.

Either way, it goes beyond FAUX PAS.
