Nice reflexes by ol' George. I'm mildly impressed.
EDIT: The appropriate response, of course, would be:
"Now who throws a shoe? Honestly! You fight like a woman!"

Funny as **** .
Who remembers the TV footage of Saddams statues and the shoes with the commentator saying locals shoes really show the contempt for Saddam and his policies ?



But antway since Bush is celebrating the provisional acceptance of Iraqi(Iranian) terms how does that leave all the other members of the coilition of the gullible once January comes around ?
On another note both shoes struck the American flag , showing such disrespect to the banner of freedom surely deserves a response in the strongest manner possible , hence I put forward the motion that all freedom loving American patriots should apply pressure to their reprasentatives to invade Iraq now , especially as it is rumoured that the shoes in question had insoles to fight odour and as such would contain chemicals that are on the UN proscribed list for Iraq .
These shoes in the wrong feet could be turned into weapons of mass destruction , we must act now in case Iraqi journalists join with Al-Qaida and before you know it the good citizens of NY will be bombarded with terrorist shoes on the MTA....for the sake of freedom invade Iraq now or we will be facing shoes in our own homelands tomorrow .
Now some of you liberal weenyanti american cheese eating surrender monkeys might say that the link between journalist and Al-qaida is weak , but I ask you to google for facts andyou will discover that the overwhelming majority of Al-qaida links you find originate with journalists .
That is irrefutable evidenc of the link between journalists and Al-qaida , one manifestation of which you have just witnessed on you-tube .
Act now .

Great gif Sasaki.
I have to hand it to George, he dodged that pretty well.
And he had an appropriate reaction after the whole incident too.

I think the Journalist did well to get to his second shoe.

Impressive reflexes! Bush is dodging that shoe almost as well as he dodged service in Vietnam!
Hilarious and well deserved.

I'm not gonna lie, I was grudgingly impressed not only with how easily Bush dodged the incoming shoe, but also that he did so with a certain amount of panache...

Once people are finished with the Obamagasm they're really going to miss 'ol 43.

Agreed.

Better than a long drop and a short stop.
Some American journalist should have done that years ago. The only thing they threw at W when it would have really mattered were softballs.
Isn't throwing shoes at someone a grave sign of disrespect in any culture?

nah, just considered rude in most of them.

Yeah, not bad for a guy that can't chew pretzels and breath at the same time. However, I am disappointed that a secret service agent didn't dive in front of George and take that barrage of shoes for POTUS.
Miliki should have caught George in the face with a cream pie as he ducked just for laughs!
Devastatin Dave 21:19 12-15-2008
Was the guy yelling "Armani Akbar!!!" when he threw the shoe?

Like all politicians he is good at ducking spin from journalists. He did do it in style.

I wonder if any SS will get in trouble for their lack of reaction speed.

So just about everything on this clay grown tall, that's good because that means we can just neglect just about everything on this clay grown tall and just shoot them wherever we find them (borrowed but if it's old it is at least wise unless it's really stupid)
I think its some kind of counter point your making but it has gone completely over my head, what is this clay grown tall ?
can you make your point again but in simple english...

No less then the greatest example of english poetry what are you english kids up to while we study??
Futility
Move him into the sun - <
Gently its touch awoke him once, <
At home, whispering of fields unsown. <
Always it woke him, even in France, <
Until this morning and this snow. <
If anything might rouse him now <
The kind old sun will know. < life
Think how it wakes the seeds, - <
Woke, once, the clays of a cold star. <
Are limbs, so dear-achieved, are sides, <
Full-nerved,- still warm,- too hard to stir? < one valid question
Was it for this the clay grew tall? < guess it is, clay=planet
- O what made fatuous sunbeams toil
To break earth's sleep at all? < hence futility
Written by a soldier during the battle of the Somme in France, I cannot think of a more powerful outcry.

In all the media hub-bub I wonder if anyone reflects upon the fact that an Iraqi journalist had the ability/chutzpah/freedom from instant annihilation of family/friends/associates that would have resulted if he had tried that a mere 6 years ago...

Lol. Shoe throwing=Terrorism. I'm terrified.
Oh, and the SS thing, it's not that the fact he threw the shoe, no one saw that coming, it is that the journalist was given enough time to bend down, pick up, and throw the other shoe with no SS in sight.
Or did they get cold feet?
