US President Barack Obama (L), Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi (C) and Russian President Dmitry Medvedev
"LONDON (AFP) - - Russia's Dmitry Medvedev hailed Barack Obama as "my new comrade" Thursday after their first face-to-face talks, saying the US president "can listen" -- even if little progress was made on substance.
The Russian president contrasted Obama as "totally different" to his predecessor George W. Bush, whom he blamed for the "mistake" of US missile shield plans fiercely opposed by Moscow.
Obama agreed to visit Moscow in July after his talks with Medvedev on Wednesday on the sidelines of a G20 summit in London aimed at fixing the battered world economy.
"I believe that we managed to establish contact. But Moscow lies ahead. I cannot say that we made much progress on the most serious issues," he told reporters, adding: "Let's wait and see."
"I liked the talks. It is easy to talk to him. He can listen. The start of this relationship is good," he said, adding: "Today it's a totally different situation (compared to Bush)... This suits me quite well."" Link (http://sg.news.yahoo.com/afp/20090403/twl-russia-us-g20-diplomacy-missile-7e07afd.html)
Yeah, who would have guessed that Medvedev wanted a US president that is willing to kowtow to other world leaders. :banghead:

I'm sure they're all happy now that they've met President Doofus in person. They know what a push-over he'll be.

Everyday, Comrade Obama disgusts me a little bit more.

The whole picture is so weird looking when I first saw it I thought it had to be a Mad magazine parody. I still think it might be. Just something creepy about it.

Its takes a commie to recognize another commie.
It's just like gays and lessys - they can identify another one just by the look or moves.
