During a White House Correspondents Dinner, Cheryl Crow, who, with Laurie David, is doing a Stop Global Warming College Tour, went up to Carl Rove, hoping to discuss the environmental issue with him.

Carl didn't seem overly pleased with the subject matter.

Unaware of just how toxic his response might be, Cheryl touched his arm to soothe his irascible behavior.

"Don't touch me!" he barked at her, provoking some discussion as to the stability of his psychological state.

Cheryl beat a quick retreat, never suspecting that later in the evening her arm would fall off.

She was rushed to the hospital, where it was reattached, and she continued her environmentally correct tour.
