It could reveal a good bit about health, diet, and drug use.

Hmm..."What did you do in the great Cold War, Daddy?"

"Well, son, I shoveled sh*t in Louisiana."

Patton was right. (Cue Twilight Zone music)

I suppose they may have been able to figure out what foreign leaders had for dinner. They may have consumed more than their "fair share." (Stalin was a Socialist)
Not sharing is justification for war to a socialist.

If fortune tellers can see the future in tea leaves, perhaps Stalin got his first glimpse of obama or sanders this way.

I’ll bet Mao ate a LOT of Chinese food! (And I’m not even a KGB agent!;)

I believe the same was done by the CIA when Khrushchev visited.

Mao Tse Dump?

His Little Red Book was really TP.

Ya know, there was a Huffington article on Texas tough guy Chuck Norris: he sure passes some tough excrement.

Chuck’s poops flex their muscles in the bowl, refusing to be dismissed, unwilling to be flushed.

And Chuck Norris’ dog picks up his own waste, because Chuck Norris doesn’t take **** from anyone.
