(17,984 posts)He has a bidet. The problem is that he fixed it so that the WH plumbing dispenses Diet Coke instead of water. That's why he's grumpy all the time. He has sticky butt syndrome.

I was sent to represent the U.S. Coast Guard at the Torrance (CA) armed forces days, I believe in 1999. We were asked to line up near the entrance and if I remember the layout, there was a row of columns leading into the auditorium. Well we (the Petty Officers with me, and myself), moved to a wall outside the walkway lined by the columns, trying to stay inconspicuous as possible.
Well Cohen gets out if his official car and starts up the walkway, then looks around, spots us, pauses, hangs a right through the columns, and approaches us, looks each of us over (a bit sternly), then smiles and passes each of us one of his official "challenge coins", shakes our hands and moves on.
I was impressed. He seems like a great guy.
