I first became aware of this at the DUmp, where it is naturally causing a ruckus. The more I think about it, the funnier it is. I had to share. Hope I'm not duping anyone.
While Meeting Haitians, Bush Wipes Hand on Clinton's Shirt

Former Presidents George Bush and Bill Clinton clasped hands with residents of one of Haiti's massive tent cities yesterday on a tour of its quake-devastated capital — and BBC footage of the meet-and-greet seems to catch Mr. Bush wiping his sweaty hand on Clinton's back.
The move came right after Bush shook hands with an unidentified Haitian man.
The two former leaders were tapped by President Barack Obama to spearhead U.S. fundraising for aid and reconstruction in Haiti after January's magnitude-7 quake, which killed an estimated 230,000 people. Another 1.3 million people are homeless, with many living in camps and temporary shelters prone to dangerous flooding in the April rainy season.

<yadda yadda lots of praise for Clinton's relief efforts...>
The money shot is at about 49 seconds.

First of all. Never use the phrase money shot in any way to do with Bill Clinton.
Secondly, it looks like GW was patting him on the shoulder as to let him know that it was time to move on. But if it gets the DUmmies panties in a wad, then yes, he did wipe his hand on Bill Clinton.

Why does GWB wave like a little girl?

He was probably waving at a kid. I wave like that at my daughter a lot.

Yea...that does bring on the regurgitate reflex.

I have heard it said before that President Bush is very mindful of germs, and is a fan of constant Purell usage - but I do suspect this was an attempt to get Clinton's attention.
Though I do find the thought of Bush using Clinton's shirt as a towel hilarious.

What the other side will say against Bush is too funny

That was pretty much the way I saw it too.
Another thought too....by now with these two traveling around together, and both with a sense of humor...
I could see me in the same situation with M and wiping my hand on his shirt, then laughing about it. Just as if I had on a pair of jeans...in the same situation...and he swiped his hand on my tush....and then try to pass it off and he wanted to give me a "love pat"....
We've both done the above to each other when out fishing and having put our hands in the water or on a fish.
People need to lighten up and stop reading so much into what is probably an innocent act....

I would think you'd need the sanitizer AFTER wiping your hand on Clinton's shirt!

Ya, whatever "newscaster" I saw when this was on TV called Bush a germophobe. Never heard that before.
Indeed using Clinton as a towel is hilarious. :cheersmate:
