Haha. I won't get political, but he said he thought the shoe was a size 10.

I can't stand the man, and yes he has deserved to get smacked upside the face numerous times, but not even I can cheer for a moment like this. Disgraceful.

I hope the guy doesn't get in any trouble. He was just providing us with some entertainment.

Your post contradicts itself

i agree... it's wholly disrectful to our country as a whole to have some idiot throwing his shoes at our President, no matter how much u might not agree w/his politics... i don't think any country would appreciate an American reporter showing the same disrespect to a leader from a foreign nation.

If this were an attempt on his life, then I would be inclined to agree with you guys. Its not just about disagreeing with his politics. Personally, I find Bush to be a contemptable man and he has run a despicable administration. Shoes thrown at him? Not only was it hilarious, but he should consider himself lucky thats all people are trying to do to him.

If this happened a couple of weeks ago, I would say that they should give that cat a spot on in the Mets bullpen. Homeboy was throwin' gas.

I agree. This just lowers the respect level for the position even more and makes Obama's role even harder.
I just hope that people will like me

Obama is younger and quicker. I'm sure he'd be able to avoid any object that Bush can. I doubt he'd even be facing a similar scenario though anyway.

I guess I just see things differently. To me this is an attack on Bush the person and a statement on his mangling of the presidency. I dont see this as an attack on America or the title of U.S President.

Straight up, Bush is not a good person. I feel sorry for the lives he's ruined.

IMO the way to express ur displeasure w/a foreign dignitary's politics is through protests, writing a letter or by voting him out... u don't throw your shoes at him at a nationally aired press conference in front of your own country's leaders unless u're a crazy radical... that's the same kinda irresponsible mentality that causes some idiots to strap bombs to their waist & blow themselves up in a crowded hotel to prove some kinda point that their cause is just... i don't care if this guy had his family killed as a result of the War in Iraq either... i wonder if grieving mothers of soldiers killed in the war would even stoop to this level... i feel sorry for the lives he's ruined too but IMO this is a much larger show of disrespect than to just 1 man... you would think getting a crazy oppressive zealot like Sadam Hussein out of power would be a good thing for the Iraqi people but this man obviously thinks different.
