Yes folks Bush derangement syndrome is alive and well. For a time it appeared that Palin derangement syndrome had cured it; reaction to a viral video showing the two ex-presidents in Haiti confirms it still lives. All over the news, you’ll see the headline ‘Bush hand wipe on Clinton’s shirt in Haiti.’ Unfortunately the mainstream media has nothing else on their plate to cover I suppose.
Former Presidents Bush and Clinton traveled to Port-au-Prince, Haiti to oversee the relief efforts that they helped to precipitate. The Bush Clinton Haiti fund has given the International Medical Corp $500,000 dollars to run mobile clinics on the earthquake devastated island.
But let’s not concentrate on that! Bush wiped his hand on Clinton’s shirt! Why in the world would Bush wipe his hand on Clinton’s shirt? Could it be as some leftists believe that Bush simply doesn’t like black people ala Hurricane Katrina? Does the 43rd President of the United States think that the Haitians have cooties? Or is it just possible that his hand was sweaty and Clinton’s soft blue cotton shirt served the purpose?
Let’s not give any deference to the fact that the Bush Clinton Haiti fund has raised nearly $40 million for the relief effort. Why would we? Bush wiped his hand on Clinton’s shirt for crying out loud. Oh who knows, maybe he’s feeling guilty for all of the blood that’s on his hands for the unjust wars he started and he just wants it off.
Please, let’s be honest. If you were Bush, or anyone for that matter, and you wanted to wipe your hand clean; would Bill Clinton’s shirt be the object you chose for cleanliness? Would Bush wipe his hand on Clinton’s shirt hoping to get it clean? You simply have no idea where he’s been.
See the video of the famous Bush hand wipe below and tell us what you think in the comments.

If Clinton has been leaning over, perhaps Bush would have wiped his ass? Poor Mr. Bush. He just does not have enough sense to be discrete. That’s what it means to me. I am sure The Silver Fox taught him to keep his hands to himself. Thank you.

These are deep probing questions.

Sentences like that are the reason I come back to this site. Everyone knows it’s perfectly valid to wipe your sweaty hands all over an ex-president’s shirt… nothing wrong with that. I mean, president or not, if there’s a guy in front of you with a “soft blue cotton shirt” and you’ve got sweaty hands, he’s a bathroom paper towel dispenser. Makes perfect sense.
It’s like, sometimes you need to clean your glasses. If there’s a person in front of you, you can use them. No biggie.
Unfortunately the mainstream media has nothing else on their plate to cover I suppose.
Yeah. I’m glad such a fringe story isn’t carried on any of the more responsible sites, especially the blogs of- oh wait.

Ha ha ha ha ha! You got a lot of nerve criticizing this, seeing that you are the kings of this sort of crap (Look! He bowed to him! He didn’t have his flag pin on! He didn’t put his hand over his heart!).
“Oh who knows, maybe he’s feeling guilty for all of the blood that’s on his hands for the unjust wars he started and he just wants it off.”
Eh what? I finally read something that’s true here.
OH! You were trying to be FUNNY! I see! Thousands of American soldiers dead and wounded! Hundreds of thousands of civilians dead.
HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!

I almost vomited seeing C Ray Nagin here. I have enough of him already and he is soon to depart from our radar. Then again, I suspect he will be the head of the “new Acorn” under another name.

Hardly his first offense:

Let’s face it, the guy is an ill-mannered, uncouth, spoiled cretin.
March 26th, 2010 at 6:31 am
Haha, I mean, here’s the thing. Say he had a legitimate reason to wipe his hand that didn’t involve a general uneasiness about the person with whom he just shook hands. Let’s assume his hand was, in fact, just sweaty.
OK. So why is Bill Clinton’s shirt the place he chooses to wipe his hand? Why not wipe his hand on his own shirt, or wait for a towel? It’s pretty disrespectful to clean yourself off using another person, no matter who it is — and one might argue former Presidents command more respect than your average Joe.
I’m pretty sure most of you would be a little weirded out if I tried to wipe my hand on your clothes, no matter what was actually on my hand. I don’t think W is a racist, I think he’s just a clueless idiot most of the time.

Nice way to spin this one! Fox News gave up trying to put this one in a positive light and just ignored it altogether. Fair and Balanced indeed!
This just proves what a low life Bush is. Regardless of whether or not it had anything to do with touching “black” or “poor” people, what kind of person wipes off their hand onto someone else’s shirt?

“Fox News gave up trying to put this one in a positive light and just ignored it altogether.”
Fox News knows an agenda driven non news story when they see one. Let the lame stream media embarass themselves with this cr*p. Fox News has ratings to maintain by reporting legitimate stories.

Some comedians have proved why Bush REALLY wiped his hand on Clinton’s shirt at http://www.fairshakeofthesaucebottlemate.com – crude but funny.

DID BUSH ONLY SHAKE ONE HAND??? GIVE THE GUY A BREAK. DID WE SEE WHO HAND HE SHOOK? MAYBE WE WOULD DO THE SAME. I DON’T LIKE BUSH BUT THE TROUBLE WITH THE MEDIA IS THAT YOU HAVE TO REPORT SOMETHING EVERYDAY!!!!!
March 27th, 2010 at 1:54 am
must not have read any fox news lately, mr monkey
March 27th, 2010 at 2:10 am
No, I haven’t. I don’t like any news media websites.

Former President Bush is an idiot that didn’t even have enough sense to wipe his hand on his own clothing.That was very disrespectful what he did to former President Clinton…and Clinton did notice what he was doing.Clinton was a better choice to have there (he really cared).Bush should have stayed his phony racist a** home.The way Bush held out his hand after he shook hands with those people..was like he rather have that hand cut off,lol.It is a shame.Next time he has to touch a “dirty black hand” as he most likely was thinking..maybe he will learn how to have some manners and be patient with wiping the dirt off his lily white hand.No wonder he’s not respected..and this is just a small example of his true self.

Your Bush Derangement Syndrome is showing Michelle.
March 27th, 2010 at 2:25 am
Wha…wah…wah..wah…whats that sound…why thats the sound of leftist nut jobs who have missed making fun of Bush so bad they found a reason…this was pointless and not newsworthy. The guy is down there on his time raising money for the “black people” he so called does not like. I’m so sick of this liberal racist calling crap. Do you know the relationship the two presidents have created working together and joking around…maybe Clinton had done the same earlier…
While your making a big deal about that… Regardless of your political views, this wk we saw a great American do something many said couldn’t B done. Yup, Buzz Aldrin did the cha-cha on Dacing with the stars!!!! HAHAHAHAHA!!!
March 27th, 2010 at 3:28 am
and you just need to go FLY AWAY..(MONKEY).I don’t care how you people try to take up for Bush he was wrong.
March 27th, 2010 at 3:46 am
It was not so much a hand-wipe as a bonding.
Don’t you realize that they are both alcoholics.
Bush was possibly trying to steady himself by holding on to his drunk companion.
March 27th, 2010 at 3:47 am
Thank you David for making some sense. All the problems America has and this is a big deal?? It speaks volumns that these two have come together for this worthy cause.
March 27th, 2010 at 3:51 am
I think imagination has run amuk. I watched the video and it looks like he patted Clinton on the shoulder and his hand trailed off. It did not look like an intentional hand-wipe. Give us a break!
March 27th, 2010 at 3:54 am
Get a life, I do not like Bush, never did, but this???? get a life people, he has better things to do, come on.
March 27th, 2010 at 4:12 am
Guess the sting of the leftist media has upset the right here. hahaa!
March 27th, 2010 at 4:14 am
Who cares!
March 27th, 2010 at 4:21 am
It’s crazy to me that people get paid to write babble, I wouldn’t even want my name on this article. Go cover squirrels water skiing at least that’s amusing
March 27th, 2010 at 4:21 am
I am happy that Mr. President Obama picked former president Bush for this mission with Former Mr. President Bill Clinton. The Bible clearly stated that you cannot hide the truth. Mr. Bush showed his true-self. I forgive him.
March 27th, 2010 at 4:31 am
we have to tolerate each other
