As baleanoptera put it ever so nicely, this looks like some version of a comedy. :D

It looks like a still from a comedy or something. And yes, Medvedev is tiny, tiny in the picture. But not as tiny as Queen Elizabeth (http://www.google.com/hostednews/ap/slideshow/ALeqM5g2sXbw3n0PKVN50IBSKqYDoWobAQD97AAADG0?index=0), who looks a bit like a grumpy fairy next to Obama. Or maybe it was Prince Philip who was the grumpy one? ;)

Ha-ha-ha-ha!!!!!!!!! Obama tries to lean to one side ever so slightly to compensate for the size difference but this doesn't help!!!

Medvedev had a most hilarious picture last year too, with Bush :

Ouch! Poor Medvedev- he looks a bit like an eager school boy due to the stairs.

And yes, Obama does the gentlemanly thing, bless him. Hee.

He is like a boy who came to see his granny whom he is slighty afraid of.

Heee! Neither the queen nor Prince Phillip really looked like they knew what was going on!

And I had no idea Medvedev was so wee. Heee.

Queen is a rather strict-looking old lady. And Obama is "I am so happy! I am very happy!" .

And I had no idea Medvedev was so wee. Heee.

He is 162 centimetres (5'4") ! Gosh, this is 2 inches less than me!

Though you have to give Prince Philip props for having the "grumpy-old-man" look down to a pat. He looks like all he lacks is cane and in a squeeky voice mumbling something about "getting of his lawn". ;P

*dies a bit*

I had heard the one about the Scottish driving instructor and one not mentioned here about his reference to "darkies in India", but I had no idea it was so extensive!

I love the journalists statement that: "He's insulted everyone from literally dozens of countries, so it's certainly not focused on one group of people, including himself and his own family,"

That's adorable.

...I think my brain might just crash at the idea of having a giggle-worthy, adorable President.

It looks like something one of them would post on their facebook page.

I know! I expect Barack Obama to have a Facebook page already. :D

He also does such poor figures during international summits, he makes me feel ashamed to be Italian :-\

Berlusconi is really short too - I feel like he and Medvedev are both standing on big boxes :P

** laughs ** They must be. This can account for the dorky smile Medvedev has. 162 centimeters is very very tiny.
