Bush Almost Gets The Boot
Bush dodges some hard-hitting questions and a pair of size 10 mens shoes as one Iraqi reporter tried to get to the “sole” of the matter during a press meeting in the US-occupied country.
Peep Georgies’ reflexes, we saw that bob and weave. With all the punches and low blows that have been thrown his way these past 8 years he should have been a boxer.
Cultural fact: In Iraq it’s considered a serious insult to be touched by the sole of another mans shoe.

I wish I wish he hit him, that woulda made my week right there.
Fox is probably spinnin this shit right now say “the man was so overjoyed by the US presence in Iraq that he offered Bush some custom made shoes.”

Ha ha ha ha ha this was funny as hell. Bush gets a shoe thrown at his head that’s crazy, he needs to hurry up and just get out of office because people really dont like him at its strting to show more and more.

I’ll bet the look on Bushe’s face would be priceless if he was struck in the face with the reporter’s shoe. Bush should expect more shoes to be thrown at him during a future speech at another location. Let the shoes come off everywhere!

This is not a surprise to me. Bush orders American soldiers to invade this man’s (the reporter) country and innocent iraqui women and children were probably slain in the process. The man is entitled to feel angry. Can anyone really blame him?
Bush is lucky the reporter only threw his shoes at him. I’m surprise the guy had enough time to throw another shoe at Bush. However, the video is kind of funny.
