Reporter Throws His Shoes at Bush

December 15th, 2008

Reporter throws his shoes at Bush. Saying that he was angry over the deaths of women and children at the hands of U.S. military personnel, a reporter for a Baghdad TV station hurled his shoes at President Bush Sunday, barely missing Bush, who was in the middle of a news conference with Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki. “This is a farewell kiss, you dog,” Muntadar al-Zeidi yelled in Arabic as he hurled his shoes at Bush. “This is from the widows, the orphans and those who were killed in Iraq.” Al-Zeidi, identified as television correspondent, was wrestled to the ground by members of the crowd. “So what if the guy threw a shoe at me?” said Bush, who narrowly missed being hit in the head. “If you want the facts, it was a size 10,” he joked. He continued with jokes later aboard Air Force One, when he quipped, “I didn’t know what the guy said but I saw his `sole, ” The Associated Press reported.

I’m sorry cecilenoe, but what the hell are you talking about? I’m not trying to be a smart azz but you need to proof read your comments before submitting it or just type something that makes sense. I can tell you were not born in America but these sentences or jibberish or just confusing.

If I was the most hated president in US history I’d probably be light on my feet and have good reflexes too. And I’d sit with my back to the door EVERYWHERE and carry my own personal protection and wear a bullet proof vest. Yeah if I was Bush I’d be real paranoid…like all the other thieves and liars and murderers. Always talking about gang bangers in the hood…we’ve had nothing but gangsters in the white house for the last 8 years.

President elect Obama needs to pick his own security team for him and his family. And carry his own gun and put on his bullet proof vest right over his white tee EVERY MORNING!!!

Buddy Said on

I think that he shouldnt have thrown the shoe at Bush but he deserved it



Tony Said on

The man could use something else than the shoe..At least he got a story to tell his kids and grand kids. I’m Canadian and I still don’t know why canada went to war followin Bush lol



Dreama Said on

At first I thought it was hilarious, however when my mom broke it down I realized it was total disrespect, Regardless of how disappointed or angry we are with Bush, he is still our leader. He should still be respected even though he has ruined our nation and thousands have died and are suffering.
The Secret Service team in charge of protecting the President should all be fired. When the first shoe was thrown, the man should have been immediately apprehended. How will they protect President elect Obama and his family? Will we demand respect for Obama or will we think that it is funny should something similar or more detrimenal happens? Not so funny now is it? We need to give more thought to our responses.

peace!
