This is amazing. He just kept his cool and used some solid dodge moves. He is such a Texas bad ass. You couldn't get any sense of fear in him. He would make 10x the international man of mystery that Austin Powers made. Austin Powers couldn't dodge a shoe, Bush can.
 
Can you imagine if they did this to a Middle Eastern man? All hell would break loose!


Civil war is a-comin'

That's a great Johnny Cash song.

Civil war is a-comin...comin round the bend..

On a serious note. Top notch security they got there though.
 
Nice deflection of the second shoe by Iraqi PM Nouri Maliki.

Quick hands.
 
Where was the Secret Service, or maybe it's Blackwater now? :dunno:
 
Bush totally went into bullet time there and dodged that footwear.

Can you imagine how embarrassing it would have been if

-- the shoe hit him right in the forehead, without him even moving to dodge it, or
-- Bush ducked down behind the podium, immediately lookling cowardly (although, to be honest, I wouldn't blame him for hiding)

Overall pretty funny, along with Bush's quip that all he can report is that they were size 10.

Maybe my two favorite moments of the Bush administration were athletic feats.

This, and his perfect strike off the mound in Yankee Stadium right after 9/11.

People can question virtually every aspect of his presidency, but no one can question his coordination.
 
Bush kinda laughed lol.

"So what if he threw a shoe at me". What a fucking G.
 
Damn, I have to give W props on the sweet reaction time. I felt sorry for him as well.

Can't really blame security for that one. They probably weren't suspecting homie was going to chuck a Hush Puppy at the Prez.
 
The Iraqi Prime Minister doesn't even react to the first shoe thrown.
 
This is a perfect illustration of our victory in Iraq. If that guy had thrown a shoe at Saddam Hussein, he would have been excecuted 5 minutes later. Long live democracy in Iraq!

Yes, this is clear illustration of our victory in Iraq. Ever since we introduced American football over soccer to the Iraqi people, their throwing has improved hundredfold. Yes, this guy's accuracy wasn't the best, but this guy was a gunslinger. His arm strength is good was good. Back in the Iraqi soccer days, that shoe would have fell way short.

:smiley-jakov:

Exactly.
 
This is a perfect illustration of our defeat in Iraq. Iraqis used to throw shoes at Saddam Hussein, now they throw them at Bush. GTFO of Iraq!

Further, he would have used both hands in an overhead throwing motion, and it would have taken too long to reload, so he would have only got one shoe off.

This is why I wouldn't vote for any of them. If I were President, I would have called off the Secret Service and went toe to toe with the guy. Throw a shoe at me and IT IS ON MOTHERFUCKER! Like Donkey Kong bitch.
 
Interesting audio piece on NPR:
http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=98293176

The reporter says that he's become something of a "folk hero" in Iraq. She also says that she had "trouble finding anyone who condemned his actions" and was a "national hero."

Depressing to think that after all the money we've spent and lives we've lost, there doesn't seem to be any outrage at all in Iraq that our President was treated this way. I don't like Dubya, but he's the United States President. It's sad as an American to see the leader of our country, the leader of so many Americans who have sacrificed for Iraq, so disrespected, not just by a guy with a shoe but by a whole region.

The best anyone can spin this is, "hey, if somebody tried that on Sadaam they'd be dead!", as though it's some great accomplishment to institute a government that's an improvement over that regime.

Oh, and, "I think he was a size 10." That's got to be really ironic. If somebody said, "Go fuck your mother," would you retort, "With a 10 inch dildo?" Of course not. The insult doesn't merit a pithy retort. It should be answered with a raised chin and a cold stare. It just shows how completely out of touch our president was to this insult, and this culture, that he'd reply like he did.

LOL

Moron couldn't even hit an old man from point blank range. No wonder Iraq isn't an area known for athletes. Plus Bush was smiling at him.

Best thing Bush has done in his second term IMO.

Your commentary on the size ten stuff tells me you are a future Dhimmi. At least until they try to saw your head off, eh? Because I thought that was also an "insult", at least in the Daniel Pearl video.

Did NPR mention this insult while glorifying this Iraqi coward? I mean, at least strap a bomb to yourself and kill some innocent people.

Wonder what would have happened to that journalist had he thrown a show at a podium that had Saddam standing behind it?
