At a 2006 prayer breakfast, Bono made some significant effort to avoid a photo op embrace sought out by President Bush.
The sidestep worked, and just about nobody in the audience knew it happened — though it was all captured on camera.

But — there was one sharp-eyed Senator in the bipartisan crowd who saw it all.

"When I was sitting down I was beside Sen. Obama, the star said the future President whispered to him, 'Nice work with the hug dodge.'"

  • I wouldn't dodge a hug with anyone Bono! People need those tiny shows of affection and its such a gift to give it to them, even when someone may not deserve a hug... You behavioralist!

    If I were to start denying hugs though W would be right up there on the list
