Donald Rumsfeld didn't like being asked to rate his job performance, so he flips off the questioner. From Nov. 9th, 2006.

Questioner: "If you were going to give yourself a letter grade for your performance as Secretary of Defense--what grade would that be?"

Rumsfeld: "Oh, I'd let history worry about that."

2. Ooh, That Was Sneaky!
Almost missed it. Plus he has plausible deniability: "I was just adjusting my glasses."

3. Yeah. I saw it!
Not too subtle.
Good riddance. Now that creep needs to be escorted to the Hague wearing a one-piece little orange number accessorized with a bit of stainless steel.

4. Same sneakiness
that pRick Sphinctorum's kid did during Ricky's concession speech on TUE night. Teenager must've thought it was clever; not surprised that Rummy would do it too.

5. Yes, The Finger: an uptight, selfconscious gesture
and refuge of the inarticulate.
