Here's the start of an article on Obama's arrival at Saudi Arabia. Apparently, none of the royals wanted to soil there hands by shaking hands with Obama:
(From the Washington Times)
"Saudi Arabian officials delivered a snub to President Obama Wednesday as he arrived in Riyadh to reassure the anxious ally about his nuclear deal with Iran and to seek more cooperation in the fight against Islamist extremists in Syria and Iraq.
Stepping off of Air Force One at the airport in the Saudi capital, Mr. Obama was greeted not by King Salman but by a lower-ranking royal, Prince Faisal bin Bandar Al Saud, the governor of Riyadh. Ahead of the president’s arrival, Saudi state television showed the king personally greeting senior officials from other Gulf nations arriving at an air base."

What a nincom-twit that Obama is. At least he's getting the disrespect he deserves.
This comes at the same time he just kowtowed to Iran and Cuba, and both are now treating him like a coward and an idiot. Iran is violating Obama's treaty flagrantly, thumbing their nose at Obama, and calling him the enemy. Raul Castro just called Obama's visit to Cuba "an attack", and referred to the United States as "the enemy". Nice job there, Barack!
