In a slight breach of etiquette, GWB skipped the triple dare and went right for the throat:
U.S. Rep. John "Randy" Kuhl, R-29th, doesn’t know if President George W. Bush has given him one of his infamous nicknames, but if he has, it might involve "lollipop."
Kuhl, who traveled with the president to the Rochester suburb of Greece Tuesday, said people generally try not to embarrass themselves in front of Bush. Unfortunately, Kuhl said he, along with congressmen Sherwood Boehlert, R-24th, and Thomas Reynolds, R-26th, couldn’t avoid it.
According to Kuhl, after lunch frozen raspberry fruit bars were served up. Kuhl, Boehlert and Reynolds all licked their treats, but the president bit into his.
"That’s when I realized it was very cold, too cold to lick, and my tongue was sticking to the lollipop," Kuhl said. "I don’t know if it was intentional to slow down the conversation, but here we were with the leader of the free world and all our tongues are stuck to lollipops."
"Holy cow, it’s the cops. Look, it’s the fire department" 🙂

I just figured Bush was tryin’ out ways to stop the filibusters.
