Does George Bush Dislike Shaking Hands?


Hmmm...I wonder if George Bush got dissed by the world leaders at the G20 Summit. In this video,Rick Sanchez,of CNN,says that may be the case. He could just be a germophobe,though.Remember that Bush reportedly used hand wipes after shaking Obama's hand at their first meeting.Here's an excerpt from the New York Times:

"Perhaps Mr. Obama will remind Mr. Bush of that when he sees him on Monday. Or perhaps he will remind Mr. Bush of another encounter, at a White House reception in January 2005 when, according to Mr. Obama’s book, the affable president offered a dollop of hand sanitizer — “Not wanting to seem unhygienic,” Mr. Obama wrote, “I took a squirt” — and then pulled him aside for some unsolicited political advice.(END OF EXCERPT) Read the whole article here:

So, what happened at the G20 Summit? Was George Bush snubbed or is he a serious germophobe?
