Like I always tell my kids: don't touch that, how do you know where it's been?

PS - GWB look like he's put on some weight? But looks much better than the day he left the WH!

WV: anticute. Really.

ha ha !

i think Bush was using as cover that he was trying to get Clinton's attention that it was time to go, and really gave a looong wipe of his hands on clinton's shirt to wipe off whatever was feeling not so clean on the hands of that last person who reached for him.

too bad the camera's didnt follow him to find out how long it took him to get to some hand sanitizer. i bet it was as soon as they walked away.

Payback for all the stains that Bill Clinton's made on other people's clothing over the years.

Unknown said...

LOL, Palladian ! very nicely done.

So, did "W" wash his hands afterwards?

After what he did to Monica's dress, I don't think Clinton's got any cause to complain.

I am sure George Bush and Bill Clinton get along great. They share experiences that few of us can truly appreciate. I would bet this was an inside joke between them.

But I am not surprised that some of the Althouse Hillbillies here are willing to make President Bush look small in order to take gross swipes at Bill Clinton.

Till now, I thought they were the same guy. Those Clintons are tricky like that.

Must be Clinton's fault

Damn, Palladian beat me to it!!

After it was wiped on Willie's shirt, I can only hope the medics disinfected poor Dubya's hand (presumably, up to the elbow).

I noticed you ran with the Bush video, but didn't run with the video of Hillary Clinton wiping a booger on a child.

Both were linked in your comments yesterday.

Interesting.

Will Cate said...

Is he not just caressing Clinton's shoulder (in a manly sort-of way)?

Jason said...

If Bush didn't ejaculate all over Clinton's face, I say no foul.

Sigivald said...

If that's "wiping his hand" on the shirt, he didn't do a good job.

Not enough pressure or motion to really wipe anything.

Danielle's preemptively deployed "cover" story looks like the most plausible and parsimonious explanation.

Which explains why someone might want to try and derail it ahead of time.

Chennaul said...

Oy.

This stupid thing was doctored.

Look at the tape without the stuttering.

It's here at Breibart-

Link to video

If you pause the tape at the :14 second mark you can see that the hand is "disembodied".

Someone in their comment section spotted it.

Chennaul said...

Actually it starts-the fake hand-at the 13 second mark.

You have to be an artist that's interested in drawing people realistically and proportionally perhaps to see it.

Sabinal said...

If people are STILL this desperate to make W look bad, maybe Obama is really bad

Chennaul said...

Oh shoot me now-ABC has better footage and it does look like Bush did this.

aaaargh.

(that's what I get for trying to taunt Palladian into taking a second look at it.)
