what a poor puppy dog... http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/11/20/world-leaders-dont-shake_n_145141.html
It almost looks like it was planned that way. Bush didn't look like he was looking to shake hands and vice versa. Weird.
Ya that was strange to watch. He just looked down like he only cared to find the X with his name on it.
What part of that video was edited to "hype" it? Because unless Bush wasn't shunned by world leaders live on the world stage and unless Bush wasn't shuffling his feet with his head down like a scorned puppy dog, I'm missing your point. I read in a few places people trying to debunk this by saying that Bush met with all those world leaders before this and that's why they didn't shake his hand...... But look at the body language in that video and use you own common sense please.... And ask yourself if you really believe they had a prior meeting and decided they were all going to shake everyone's hands but George Bush's and shun him in front of the world because that just seemed like a good idea. World leaders are always fully aware that every time a camera is on it's a photo op and they take full advantage of it to make a statement, whether that be with words or actions. In fact in a multi-lingual world such as ours actions sometimes are far more effective than words. No translation required
when Obama becomes pres they'll be fist bumping and high fiving. I'm looking forward to the time when the world leaders start chest bumping!!!! If Jesse Ventura had become pres he'd have been wrasslin with all of them.
As are we all sir. As are we all... It looks like, as rob posted, I was wrong to just go by appearances. http://www.cnn.com/video/#/video/politics/2008/11/20/moos.bush.not.ignored.cnn?iref=videosearch
Yeah but it's still strange man! I mean he looks like a little kid in line for the water fountain...especially when he stops and just kind of sways for a second.
