Grace under fire. Doubt Bill Clinton or Obama would take such an insult so well.

Meanwhile: the reporter is an ungrateful, ill-informed twit. Much the same as ours.

And he can’t spell “heels.”

[BuckyKat]

Time to put reporters through similar security humiliation that we all suffer at airports - but KEEP their shoes.

[Daffynition]

Many, like this reporter, will never understand. It's a Muslim mindset.

Airforce Chief MS & Iraqi baby girl. Her entire family murdered by Islamic terrorists.

God bless George W.Bush.

Despite his not closing the borders, Americans will miss the quality of him as an individual and as an elected official.

[Jeff Head]

The secret service should have literally jumped on this POS, wresteld him to the ground, and broke a few ribs and apendages in the process of apprehending him .

[Eaker]

Really need to Gitmo the jerk!

[lilylangtree]

God bless Pres. Bush. What a great statesman! If he were able to run again, he’d have my vote again. Now let’s cage all the radical islamists media, and let them dodge pork layered bullets. They’re worse than the lowest slimiest piece of garbage. Pox on all of them.

“So what if I guy threw his shoe at me?” he said.

I’d vote for President Bush again proudly and in a heartbeat. He is the kind of man I want as president.

[Jeff Head]

A couple of years ago...yes. Now, with the Obamanation coming in, what that is apt to mean is that he would get a trial right here in the USA and end up winning a civil suit for hundreds of thousands of our doallars.

[Humal]

...and the Secret Service did what????

[JoeProBono]

In the old days it would be straight to a soccer field beheading and a rape room for his family instead of being escorted to an nearby room for a time out . You're welcome .

[VA_Gentleman]

I’m kind of wondering why the secret service didn’t plant two bullets in the guy after the first shoe was thrown.

[OCC]

We have dealt with show wielding a-holes before.

[mamelukesabre]

Was this guy showing how much he disliked bush, or was there something specific that bush said in his speech that the guy took offense to?

[kbennkc]

I’m kind of wondering why the secret service didn’t plant two bullets in the guy after the first shoe was thrown.

Very good question . Even little old me would have assumed the shoes to be explosive devices and more were yet to be thrown .

[lawley]

That secret service team should be FIRED. They should’ve been all over that guy before the 2nd shoe went airborne. In fact, an effective secret service agent can handily intercept any flying shoe...
