The Iraqi who threw his shoes at Pres. Bush will be getting out of jail after serving only nine months of what was originally a three-year sentence . . . and David Shuster is pysched.
Reporting on the news at the end of MSNBC's 4 PM hour today, Shuster exclaimed: "Good for him!"
Co-host Tamron Hall wasn't so sure, making the incontrovertible point that Shuster wouldn't be so happy if the guy who walked early had hurled his Hush Puppies at Pres. Obama.

Shuster psyched shoe-thrower walking early ping to Today show list.
So did this report include a replay of the incident (repeated ten or fifteen times?)
The media is so repulsive...
Apples and oranges lady.
Obama is God incarnate and therefore all criticism, personal attacks and dissent from his views should be met with a swift and brutal retribution.
Just ask Glenn Beck how that works.
They can only hit Obama with the bottom of the shoe for he’s a sole man.
Just proving the depravity of DBM. They just want to drag all symbols (i.e. flag, president) of USA through the mud. The throwing of the shoe is a gesture of disrespect and attempt to humiliate the target. This the media thinking it is funnier than hell, that Dubya “deserved” it.
The media is so repulsive...
I guess someday when the Jihadi suitcase nuke goes off in the lobby of 30 Rock they might just figure that out
I could care less what David Shuster and the rest of the crew at MSNBC have to say. Not many others do either, look at their ratings and you’ll see.
Of course the difference is...Bush deftly ducked the throw and then made a joke.
Biggety would have taken it full in the face and cried.
I was mad as heck about it, but all I could do was add it to the list of why I don’t like the TV media. It was a punk move, on the part of the shoe thrower, and should of been regarded as such. Overseas they thought the guy was a great hero and our media picked up on that.
Probably the shoe-thrower will be on Obama’s list to receive a Presidential Medal of Freedom next year.
They let the Lockerbie bomber walk , what’s a stinking shoe thrown and missed compared to 200 lives lost?
david shooooster...a wannabe
