Bush cleans his hands after greeting Obama
“Obama!”Bush exclaimed… “Come here and meet Laura. Laura, you remember Obama. We saw him on TV during election night. Beautiful family. And that wife of yours — that’s one impressive lady.”

Really? That’s nuts. Does Bush have a squirt of anti-bacterial cream after shaking Jeb’s hand?

It just goes to show!! What happened during his term in office to New Orleans? Somehow that attitude didn’t come as a mistake; cleaning his had, is this for real? Some statesman!!!

This was NOT racism!
This was at an event with a lot of people where politicians — such as Bush and Obama — have to shake a lot of hands. To keep from contracting colds and other minor ailments caused by the transmitting of germs through handshaking, many politicians will use hand sanitizer to kill the germs.
Comprende, so far?
So, Bush did not sanitize his hands because he had just shaken the hand of now President-elect Obama, it was out of habit.
Obama said it as much in his book (but that part was “somehow” omitted from the quote above.”
Thanks for the explanation, Whispering Inn. They really do that?
