He will win a Pulitzer for that.
And this jerk lived under Saddam?? This is the thanks he gives when over 4,000 Americans gave their lives so he can do this????
Very disconcerting - he could have had a pistol and would have shot the president in the head - point blank. Did you see the lag time before a single secret service agent arrived?
You put your right foot in, and you shake it all about, You put your left foot in, that’s what it’s all about.
What this fool and all the liberals who will crow over this are oblivious to is the fact that this idiot COULD throw his shoes at the President and, obviouly, he did not fear retribution. That alone vindicates Pres. Bush.
Under Hussein (Saddam not Barrack) this overgrown 2 year old would have been thrown down a wood chipper or fed to lions and all footage of it would have been destroyed.
Probably the only time an alert Secret Service agent would ever have the need to yell “SHOE!!!”;)
What is it with “journalists”?
The reporter was allegedly from Egyptian Newspaper. I can’t believe the comments on YouTube.
This could have been serious.
This “journalist” could have called hum a “house negroe”
Someone threw a shoe at Richard Perle on a college campus a few years ago.
I wonder how often this smack off threw his shoes at Saddam?
Did he intern at the New York Times or the Washington Post?
Paid for by Code Pinko...
And the President waved off the Secret Service and calmly finished the news conference, quipping that, “it was a size 10.”
Class vs. crass.
This shoe attack could have just been a probing attack to check defenses for a much larger shoe attack planned for later.
If it was England with their socialized Medicine and insane marginal tax rates it is a miracle they have shoes. Besides they have been so geldified they would have thrown a high heel :-) .......
As a U.S. taxpayer and fellow citizen of U.S. soldiers risking their lives, suffereing horrific injuries and dying to improve your litle hell-hole of a nation I say to that journalist f*** you and the horse you rode in on! If it were possible to isolate fools like that and hold them in a portion of Iraq which would be run in fashion like that under Saddam, I would be all in favor of it.
Wow, with reflexes like that, he could be married to the Hildabeast (ducking all the ashtrays).
