World leaders refuse to shake Bush’s hand during G20 photo-op.

CNN’s Rick Sanchez highlighted yesterday that during last weekend’s G20 Economic Summit, leaders from around the world refused to acknowledge or shake hands with President Bush as they walked on stage for a photo-op. As Sanchez explained, everyone was “greeting each other and shaking hands, but Bush walks with his head down like the dejected most unpopular kid in high school.” Watch it:

Update

CNN later said Sanchez’s report was inaccurate and that Bush had already greeted each leader earlier in the day.
