Since when is a dozen people called a “rally”?
Why the hell didn’t someone throw a shoe at her?
Why doesnt she just suck a (Birmingham) gaspipe?
There. Fixed it.
for those out of the loop, a “Birmingham” gas pipe is a cheap, untested firearm made to be sold to the natives.
So, it looks as if we have been given the green light to throw shoes at Medea. Not trying to hurt her, just trying to insult her. So, she won’t press charges, I guess. I wish she would visit my neighborhood.
I say we should offer to trade Katie Couric for the shoe thrower. He’s morally superior as a journalist because he admits his predjudices while she does not.
So we end up with Katie in jail in Iraq and a goofy Iraqi reporter running around the US. And, as a bonus, the average morality of American journalism will increase just a little bit.
Seems like a good deal to me. What say you?
While the shoe-throwing incident may have only been an insult to our president, it likely scared the pants off the Iraqi president. Could have been him. That is why they are getting tough with the ‘journalist’ that chucked the shoe.
It's assault, no matter how you want to slice it.
It's one of the most condescending remarks one can make in that part of the world.
The guy needs to do time in an Iraqi prison. With freedom comes responsibility and personal culpability. His actions done by his own free will.

This really isn't a new thing. Attempts and games like this are played all the time. I remember a German peace-nick (A Gruene of course) years past throwing red paint into the face of an American general at a news conference. These spectacles reappear from time to time.
I guess that next time some brain deap moron from “code Pinko” is speaking, I have the right to throw as hard as I can, my steel toed boot at the dittzy broad.
And, face it: fifteen years in the can, for what?
And I was so looking forward to delivering Codepink this present. Oh woe is me.
Geez, that was totally uncalled for!!!
Boy, there’s some real hotties over there at Code Pink! Hubba, hubba! Maybe they can recruit Helen Thomas, Babs Streisand and Cynthia McKinney into their coven.
He is going to be released - just as soon he recovers from:
1) double hand amputation,
2) double foot amputation,
3) tongue amputation,
4) blinding,
5) eardrum rupturing.
Then send him back to his family - once he puts his ‘X’ on the bottom of his statement of how grateful he is for his light sentance.
He could then be a shining example of what happens when you throw a shoe at an American president - as opposed to Putin, King Abdulah, etc.
Yeah, those people are totally out of control.
Thanks Vet, for bringing that to our attention.
I’d rather use rocks and bottles if that’s alright.
