When I was in college in Iowa - back in the early '70's - I actually skipped an American History class to go to Cedar Rapids airport and see Spiro Agnew. Little did I realize - until the next morning - that a newspaper photographer snapped a picture of me shaking hands with Agnew and it appeared on the front page of the Des Moines Register.

I walked into my American History class and the professor (staunch Democrat), sniffed the air noisely, and looked at me and asked me in a loud voice if I had washed my hands good after shaking hands with Agnew.

I would not have walked across the street to shake George Bush's hand. That man lied to the country and cost the lives of over 4,400 soldiers for no reason at all.
