Personally I don’t get giving the president or his motorcade the finger.

When bubba was in Sacramento during his tenure I waited in a group to see if his motorcade would stop to shake our hands. He did stop and even with my intense dislike for the man, it never entered my mind to give him the finger. I shook his hand and well, it was pretty cool that I got to shake a presidents hand.

Compare your story with that of baseball legend Joe DiMaggio. He was in attendance in Baltimore in the 1990s when Cal Ripken Jr. was breaking Lou Gehrig's record of playing in 2,130 consecutive games. Bill Clinton was also there, and sent his staff over to DiMaggio's seat to bring him up for a photograph with the president.

DiMaggio steadfastly refused to go anywhere near the guy.

Hope you remembered to immediately wash the filth because we don’t even have to guess where that hand of his had been........

Hmm. I shook Eisenhower’s hand back in the mid 50’s. As a kid, that was pretty cool.
