Yikes.
Originally Posted By Mr X Didn't seem very subtle to me Daannzzz...more like after he tried to shake his hand dry he found a convenient place to, well, dry it. Yuck. Like I said though, if that's how you and others see it I'm more than happy to consider myself crazy for thinking so......

Originally Posted By davewasbaloo Lol Jer, that crossed my mind too. It was a little creepy. I have to say though, respect to these two for working together on this and trying to get people from both sides interested.
Originally Posted By CuriouserConstance lol It looked like he tried to shake something off his hand real quick before he did it too. Quick someone tell me something vile and seedy about Bush, because I always feel bad for him when I see him trying to act normal in public.

Originally Posted By markymouse That's what it looked like to me. If you really want to disapprove of him, notice the scenes of Clinton reaching out, literally, to people in the crowd, followed by Bush standing around with some handlers with "when will this be over" all over his face, followed by the "one touched me, ewww" scene. I know Bush1 is getting too old to do walkabouts in Haiti. But I sure liked the original Bush-Clinton team a lot better than having this uncomfortable looking guy trying to step in and look so much like all he wants to do is get out.
