Iraqi shoe toss

Anyone not see the video yet? If that Bush security detail isn't fired en masse for doing nothing until well after journalists took the guy down I'll be shocked. Even then his bodyguards in the front just stood up and did nothing except stand... behind Bush. Guess nobody wants to take a bullet for the guy eh? Heh.

Now... imagine if that was McRage up there? I bet he'd do a summersault dive off the third rope into the crowd to get at the guy and make the it look like an episode of Cops.

Must see TV.

LOL

I saw the video, and I thought Bush was rather enjoying it. Sort of like a snowball fight. He was sure grinning ear to ear.

He has good reaction time. I wonder if he has any idea how severely he was being insulted with that and the "you dog" comment.

When are we going to get a Indian tomahawk toss video featuring Bush?

Shoe-hurling journalists are like focus groups.

It was the shoe heard around the world.

You can't make this stuff up. Bids for the shoes are into the millions.

Bush is comedic gold. Things are going to get boring once he's out of office.

I thought that Bush handled that really well and his reflexes surprise me. I'm pretty I would have taken that first shoe straight to the face, had it been me up there.

And I agree about his security looking like a complete bunch of dicks.

I never thought I would say that Bush handled something really well.

Best is how the Iraqi guy uses the second shoe as excuse to slap Bush in the face.

Great reflex's. Im sure I would have been nailed. I wonder if that journalist would have tried that stunt with Sadam six years ago?
