Reporter Throws His Shoes at Bush
December 15th, 2008Reporter 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.

This man is reasponsible for the deaths of close to a million people. Because of greed and the arrogance of power he has turned the world against us. He asked our kids to fight, something he wasn’t willing to do when he had the oppurtunity. He then sends our children back on the street broken mentally physically and spiritually and does nothing to help them. He has traded the lives of our children for the wealth that only he and the chosen of the world will enjoy. Wake up America we’ve been raped for eight years by Bush and his oil buddies and there is nothing we can do about it. Let’s hope there is a price in the afterlife for greedy murderers.

fefe, if you say something that “dumb” again I’ll throw a boot, shoe, houseshoe, tennishoe or what ever I can get my hands on at you. Are blonde by chance? You should of been standing up there with Bush and maybe one of the shoes would of knocked some sense into you. Lynn you’ve got to be just as “dumb” to even want to get to know “blondie” personally.
I think David maybe a Black Republican or just an ignorant poor #@?*~*@ because if he had anything going for himself, he wouldn’t be on BET.com making stupid remarks! But what can you expect when Bush is his role model and idol? These ‘Conservative Moral Republican’s’ are giving Saturday Night Live alot of material to work with!
I was cracking up when I seen that incident with the shoe throwing and
that look on president bush face was priceless. On a more serious note
the secret service did a terrible job and was very late in their reaction.
It was very funny but I tell you what wasn’t funny .. the secret service response. They better protect the President-Elect better than they do this clown. Suppose that was a gun then what ? You know what… I’m just trippin I would have laughed my ass off at Bush lol
Why did he block that shoe? If it would have hit him I think I would have thrown a party!!! I think the secret service wanted Bush to actually get hit, thats why their reaction was slow!!! That man will go down in history for throwing his shoes at Bush!!!
Bush has demostrated that he is not just a weak president but an active one. He is smart from the good refex i saw on TV
Excuse me cantstanddavid, i’m AA and i’m not gonna get in a shouting match with you over my opinion
Thanks Joi, I hate to stoop to David’s level sometimes, but that’s one dumb as……………. hill billy white trailor trash ignorant whiteboy that literally makes you go there!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
He needs to run quickly to a teacher, grab hold of her tightly and beg her to teach him how NOT to write a run-sentence and how to use proper english and grammer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Bush is very damn fast huh.
now everybody know that even the republicans wanted that shoe to hit Bush in the head, because he deserved it!!!!! not just because of the women and children that were killed but for the unnecessary war, for the downfall in the economy, the job lay-offs,and errrrrrrrrrrrrrthing else he has done!!!
I bet Bush was great at dodge ball!!!!! Shoot, I’d pick him for my team!
LOLOL fefe, you don’t have to be white to be a blonde LOLOL I meant no harm, the whole entry I did was just in fun, no there’s no need in getting into a match. But frankly I do wish the shoe would of hit bush LOL You’d have to agree that this nut has done nothing for the country since he’s been in office. I wish somebody would throw at shoe at his ass everyday LOL
Bush you did do cruel things. like they say what goes around comes around. All i’m going to say is nice reflex. i wish you would of have good president skills like your dodging skills
