Obama the world leader

 Daily CallerUN debacle another blow to Obama Doctrine  
  "Today the Palestinians will poke President Obama in the eye with his Nobel Peace Prize. And he has no one to blame but himself.
"Even before Mr. Obama walked the red carpet in Oslo, he believed he was his own best foreign policy advisor — and he knew how he wanted to manage the world."....
"Here, in a nutshell, is the Obama Doctrine:"....    

Barack's Presidential Protocol Bloopers  "Barack Obama has bowed to the wrong people, forgotten to put his hand over his heart for the national anthem, and snuck out of the White House without the press corps to go to his daughter's soccer game. The Commander-in-Chief shook hands with a Marine while boarding Marine One, and he met with the Dalai Lama against China's objections and then had the holy man leave out the back entrance, in the dead of winter, shod in flip-flops, past questionably stained snow and garbage bags full of rotting potato peels." Jeannie DeAngelis

All true; Obama is pretty inept on the world stage with consequences both comic and tragic. But I'm reluctant to place as much emphasis on the waving group photo as others do. For one thing, I doubt it is the formal portrait because many were joking around and out of position. If you see the video of the session, Obama's wave was a quick up and down interaction with someone off camera.
I'd say let it go; there are enough serious issues with Mr. Obama not to have us dismissed as trivial gossipers. Lets not be Rosie O'Donnells of the right.  TD
