Bush: Who Throws a Shoe? Honestly!

An Iraqi reporter who hates your guts, that's who.
Bush: Click to view!
During a news conference in Baghdad today, an Iraqi reporter launched two Nike missiles at President George Bush -- but he didn't quite have the accuracy to record a strike.

61. Obama will fix our country's problems, but that's no reason to hate George, he tries.

63. Jason,
I have a lot of friends/family that have been on tours.Unlike some of the people on here, I hope you know that a lot of us respect people like you and the courage and sacrifice you and the rest of our military has and continue to show.

65. Hey Carriss, I have been through a divorce because of the so called "Deployment Syndrome" Guess what, my ex knew I was in the Army and knew I would DIE for my country. If you can't handle the fact you husband believes in freedom and it's cost. I will use your words "SHUT THE F@#K UP" and move on.

66. George Bush has 0 respect anywhere in the world and 80% of Americans think he is a dumb ass. The Iraqi people have good reason to hate G.W....too bad the guy missed. What is also funny is that Dana Perino got a black eye when they tried to arrest the shoe thrower.

67. He also laughed in the guys face, because you know what, he refuses to be phased by some D-bag ungrateful Iraqi reporter

70. 9. why don't these goat humpers stay in their sandholes in the middle east. I bet they throw rose petals at O's feet a fellow muslim.

Posted at 3:02PM on Dec 14th 2008 by no you aren't
==============================================
They do stay in the middle east where they live. It's BUSH who is sticking his nose where it doesn't belong and putting our troops where they are not wanted trying to force our ways on other countries. We are hated all around the world because of the Bush policies and lack of leadership. President Obama will restore respect to this country something the Republicans failed to do. If you hate Obama you must be a Republican and enjoying the state of affairs this country is in after the past 8 years run by a bunch of incompetents!

71. Were the heck was the Secret Service?! As an RCMP officer, I have had protection detail more then a few times for royalty and the G.G., and each time I've done it it would of been impossible to even get one shoe off. The sercret service is a joke, that could of easily been a gun. I'm sure a few officers lost jobs today. You should all be glad that Bush is o.k.

72. Every single Secret Service Agent there is now, I hope, FIRED! No more jobs for ANY of you worthless human beings!!! How could they let this happen?

73. The International "Incident" that would have ensued had one of those shoes connected with President Bush is staggering to ponder. And it proves that the United States presence in Iraq is unwanted and despised. George W. should have proclaimed that ALL (every single man and woman) will be withdrawn from the country-effective immediately and let the Iraqi people fight their own civil wars. We've wasted too many American lives and money in this Third World, barbaric nation.

As much as I dislike the current President, I'm glad he remains unscathed and was able to make a joke about it.

74. I wonder if the guy who threw the shoe will get any offers from Major League Baseball. I think he's got a pretty good arm but he needs to polish up on his curve. But seriously, it is kinda scary to think that if one of those shoes hit our President squarely in the nose, it could have possibly killed him! One thing that could have made this situation far worse is if this sole attacker had lit his shoes on fire before launching them towards the intended target. I didn't see any Secret Service guys carrying squirt guns.
