An angry Iraqi journalist covering a surprise Baghdad press conference today by George Bush threw a shoe at the outgoing president and yelled, "This is a farewell kiss, you dog!" When the melee calmed down Bush responded, "So what if a guy threw his shoe at me?" For the first time in his 8 years in office, I agree with the W. Someone threw a shoe at George Bush, who cares?
A stolen election, war on false pretenses, Katrina, Karl Rove and a giant economic crisis and the guy ONLY got 2 size 10 shoes thrown at his head. Not a bad deal at all. I don't understand why the man was even apprehended. If anything, why didn't we think of this years ago? Using shoes as a threat not an uncommon reaction to bad behavior if a child displeases their parent, we should apply the same set of rules to our elected officials. Hey Bush, your doctrine is shit, how would you like my shoe right up your ass? Governor Blagojevich, the senate is not for sale. You better hope I don't catch you, I'll smack you with my shoe. It doesn't have to be anything ultraviolent but just imagine the real violent threats against our presidents going down if we were all promised a sneaker toss apiece for every screw up? There would be a line from Sacramento to DC in anticipation of teaching a lesson to "The Man" but at the end of it, we all move on. So, corrupt officials watch it man, I've got some size 13 Nikes and I'm not afraid to use them.
