I called Tim Russert to ask if Dick Cheney had washed his hands after their interview on Sunday.
"No-o-o," he replied, sounding confused.
Any sort of scrubbing, I wondered? Antiseptic wipe, Purell, quick shower on the way out?
No, Tim assured me, the vice president did not stop at the basement shower at NBC, or even drop by the men's room you pass on the right as you head out to the parking lot.
According to The New York Times' health section on Tuesday, Lady Macbeth and Pontius Pilate were not alone in wanting that "damned spot" out.
"People who washed their hands after contemplating an unethical act were less troubled by their thoughts than those who didn't," Benedict Carey wrote about a new study published in the journal Science on the "Macbeth effect."
"In one of several experiments among Northwestern undergraduates, the researchers had one group of students recall an unethical act from their past, like betraying a friend, and another group reflect on an ethical deed, like returning lost money," the article said. "Afterward, the students had their choice of a gift, either a pencil or an antiseptic wipe. Those who had reflected on a shameful act were twice as likely as the others to take the wipe."
If Dick Cheney didn't try to hose himself down after his outlandish performance on "Meet the Press," he may be so deep in denial he doesn't even know he's ruining America and needs a symbolic moral superwash.

She's just a freak.
This is one bitter childish clown of a cloumnist.
Heck after an interview with the democrat reporter, I'd want to take a shower!
If ever there were a woman so obviously in need of a man ...
Strike that, make it a bottle of gin.

The last sentence posted here makes no sense. None. Can't stand her anyway.
Maybe she's on to something.
I always need a shower after reading any of her tripe.
Considering where Dowd's hands have been, she oughta know...
ICK.
I wonder if Mo gargles after she interviews Bill Clinton?
Looks like MoDo is looking for her very own Plan B pill after being so in bed with the Leftist whackjobs.
Ripple.
Interesting, if repulsive thought...since everything, even making love, is political to the Far Left, does that mean that even doing something as basic as that wracks them with political concerns?
No wonder they're so miserable - if politics dominated every corner of my life, I'd be a pretty grim blighter myself.

This woman needs some meat.
--Catherine is the ultimate anti-MoDo: gorgeous, glamorous, charismatic, charming and interesting. Catherine can probably write better too.--
She is a hot babe, but she's a HUGE United Nations-loving liberal as well.
