What do you think of the Iraqi journalist who threw shoes at former President Bush? (CNN POLL)

That such a question is even asked shows the mentality of CNN.

[txnativegop]

Both the man who threw the shoe and CNN are nuts.

[sickoflibs]

I would have thrown both shoes

[Professor_Leonide]

The journalist who threw the shoe actually embarrassed the host country more than President Bush, although CNN has made a hero (in their eyes) of the guy I heard on the radio he was recently sentenced to three years in prison. I hope that 15 minutes of fame was worth it.

I voted criminal and when the results came up it was 0 percent for both...RIGGED to not accept all the negatives? Probably just RIGGED!

[vpintheak]

The “journalist” is a first class a_ _! You fill in the blank.

[freeangel]

I think that the US military ought to have a go at throwing shoes at him.(or grenades or whatever else our guys have died from at the hands of the muzzies)

[Red in Blue PA]

Forgot to include that the choices were HERO and OUTLAW.

What do you think of the Iraqi journalist who threw shoes at former President Bush?

Hero 0%
Outlaw 0%

LOL... this is after at least one Outlaw vote.

[bgill]

Zero for me as well.

[Billthedrill]

Poll doesn’t register negative votes and I’m not about to try a positive one. Personally I recommend boiling in oil, but I mean that in the nicest possible way.

[SoldierDad]

I just voted (Outlaw). The poll shows 0% to 0%. Not much of a poll I guess.

[lolhelp]

He did, most people did not keep watching the film and missed seeing the second shoe fly.

[MortMan]

First class act? Do I win the prize?!? /sarc

[IrishPennant]

What do you think of the Iraqi journalist who threw shoes at former President Bush?
Hero 43% 475
Outlaw 57% 634
Total Votes: 1109

[matginzac]

While I voted “outlaw”, it seems to me this is a typical CNN a**hole question...

[lilylangtree]

CNN & the journalist should receive 3 years in the pen. If this occurred in the US, the journalist wouldn’t even be charged.

[beethovenfan]

Follow-up question: what would you think if the man threw shoes at President Obama?

[He who knoweth not his name]

Now it`s 43% hero and 57% outlaw...what sacks

[4rcane]

but I wanted to throw my shoe at Bush too

It should be legal to throw shoe at journalists and Obama as well.

Me: “You dog!”
Journalist: “thats racist, hate crime, you should be locked up”
