Obama is giving Putin the cold shoulder

http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2013/08/08/obama-cancels-meeting-with-putin-amid-snowden-tensions/

"President Obama is giving Vladimir Putin the cold shoulder, canceling plans to meet with the Russian president next month amid tensions over the decision to grant NSA leaker Edward Snowden temporary asylum. "

Although it can be said that the Snowden incident is the last straw on a series of  disagreements between the leaders of the 2 most powerful nations. Being the support the Kremlin has given to the Assad regime in the Syrian war  on the top of the list.

Kudos to Mr. Obama for this decision, a line had to be drawn, and he just did that.
