By now, you may have heard that an Iraqi Journalist threw his shoes at President Bush during a press conference in Baghdad: Though Bush's ninja-like reflexes thwarted this evildoer's plans, I can't help but wonder how the president would have...

This sort of says everything. BBC: “In the Middle East, the sole of the foot is unclean, so pointing it at someone is insulting: when Iraqis vented their fury on the deposed Saddam Hussein in 2003, they beat his statue with their shoes.” BBC: “”Going into someone’s house or a mosque, you would always take your shoes [...]

by Eric Kohn The media has been brutal to George W. Bush for the past 8 years. But, until today, no journalist had ever gone so far as to remove his shoes and throw them at the President. You have...

Via POMED. I won’t point to all the shoe stories out there, which mostly point out the obvious: “shoe incident highlights cataclysmic perception of Bush administration,” which doesn’t even begin to do justice to this strange little grinning man who decided he would wreak havoc thousands miles away from where he lives and whose country (or [...]

“Who Throws a Shoe?”, Austin Powers Thanks to Michelle Malkin for this one. The radical Arabs could not defeat President Bush in Amerian elections or on the ground in Iraq. So, they throw shoes and celebrate. It REALLY shows how PATHETIC these folks are. Technorati Tags: George W. Bush, Iraq Bookmark/Search this post with:

Stupid people never cease to amaze me. That is nearly the sole reason for producing this blog. But, if you want to generate lots of interest and FUNDS for your footbaw program, don't you think that sending out an e-mail three days AFTER an event is sorta stupid? Yes, I received this e-mail from my alma mater, We Suck, YESTERDAY. Good Lord, let's take a gander at who these people are. Publicists or...

Shoe is the new pie. An Iraqi man in Prime Minister Nouri-al Maliki's palace threw two shoes at President Bush during a joint press conference with Maliki. The president had to duck to avoid the shoes but he was not hit. The man was grabbed and dragged out screaming. Bush joked about it and said, "that was a size ten shoe he threw at me you may want you to know. " Iraqi police have released the following...

It seems there are some places where the credit crunch hasn't hit. I've seen reports that shoes have been thrown at Downing Street. ( BBC News: UK protests over Gaza air strikes ) Naturally this is in imitation of the one thrown at George W. Bush but I'm reminded of this classic movie moment: Still it's freedom of speech and anything that keeps an industry going is to be welcomed in this day and age!...

Not to make light of the shoe attack on Dubya yesterday, but you can't watch this... Without following it up with this... Austin Powers : That really hurt! I'm gonna have a lump there, you idiot! Who throws a shoe? Honestly! You fight like a woman!

Leave it to Chris Webber and the rest of the Inside the NBA to deliver the best parody of the Bush shoe throwing incident. Admittedly, I've never really been the biggest fan of George W. (but I'd love to have a beer with him, right!) Still, I have to say I didn't find the shoe throwing incident to be that funny. Even though Bush made light of the situation by saying, "I saw that man's sole" (hilarious...
