Popebama's been snubbing Hillary all day...
Sen. Barack Obama refused to make himself available to greet Sen. Hillary Clinton before the speech.

When members of the Senate entered the chamber, Obama came in before Clinton. He went out of his way to greet as many House members as possible and walked halfway across the chamber to greet members of the Supreme Court, the president's cabinet, the military joint chiefs.

That made what happened next even more striking. Obama returned to stand by his seat next to Sen. Edward Kennedy who endorsed Obama today in a widely watched event that reverberated across the political world.

As Clinton approached, Kennedy made sure to make eye contact and indicated he wanted to shake her hand. Clinton leaned towards Kennedy over a row of seats and Kennedy leaned in towards her. They shook hands.

Obama stood icily staring at Clinton during this, then turned his back and stepped a few feet away. Kennedy may've wanted to make peace with Clinton but Obama clearly wanted no part of that.

The sense in the press gallery was that Obama didn't cover himself in glory. Someone even used the word "childish." (Not this writer.) Judging by how much conversation there was about this brush off in the press gallery, Americans will be hearing a lot more about this tomorrow and in coming days.

7. Typical exposure time of a decent digital camera, indoor lighting: 1/60th of a second
You are concluding all these nefarious things about Obama based on 1/60th of a second?

That is stupefying.

5. "Judging by how much conversation there was about this brush off in the press gallery"
It seems like whatever happened had a number of witnesses. This is a pretty detailed account by one of them.

24. That's the thing....
more than one person witnessed it...and it was totally childish for him to do that. Totally. Obviously, he's holding a grudge.

27. He's got one hell of an arrogant attitude.
"The sense in the press gallery was that Obama didn't cover himself in glory. Someone even used the word "childish." (Not this writer.) Judging by how much conversation there was about this brush off in the press gallery, Americans will be hearing a lot more about this tomorrow and in coming days."

Good, I hope they play this snub over and over until Super Tuesday.
