NV Gov Won't Greet Obama After Presidential Snub
FOX News: Gibbons, a Republican, had been at odds with the president over a statement he made months ago in which he warned bailed-out companies not to book trips to Las Vegas. Gibbons claimed the comments hurt the convention and tourism business in his state.
He complained a week ago that Obama rejected a request for a sit-down meeting -- but the spat escalated Tuesday after Gibbons apparently turned down the separate opportunity to greet Obama in Las Vegas.
Gov. Gibbons says it was a "phony" set-up by the administration to "quell" the anger that has come because President Obama spoke ill of Las Vegas.
