Hey, Perino got a black eye out of it! I'd say this man outdid himself.

Oh, I missed that! Someone send the man an ipod.

I blame Hinkley, the previous 11 presidents elected in a year ending in 0 died in office then that goober had to miss Reagan.

He hit Reagan, but used a pussy .22 that couldn't even kill an old man with a lung shot. When Squeaky Fromme went after Ford, she used an M1911. Now that's a psycho who knows her job.

His only hope is they don't manage to put a bullet in his head before January on account of red tape.

It's not too late to whisk him away on a CIA torture cruise.

Seems the US SS was caught a little flat footed on this one.

kekekekekekekekekekeke

I didn't get that either. What the hell was he trying to say?

THANK GOD WE GOT IN THERE AND TOOK OUT SADDAM'S REGIME, OTHERWISE HE'D BE GETTING TORTURED AND EXECUTED RIGHT NOW.

Oh, wait a minute...

They were trying to say that in America you have the FREEDOM to throw shoes at your leaders, whereas in Old Iraq Saddam would have summarily executed the shoe-marksman.

Though paradoxically, this was only really possible in Iraq. In America it never would have happened, or would have resulted in the death of the ballistic footwear sniper.

We can only imagine how many of that man's friends and family would still be alive or not missing under Saddam's regime.

He's not Iraqi, he's Egyptian. So pretty much he was abducted by people who are our current "friends." Bush enjoys saying that he didn't take the "easy way out" by putting another Saddam in power, instead, he just funds people who are as nasty and oppressive as Saddam, and sprinkles the love around in exchange for cease fires.

Truly an evil man.

In some dusty grave somewhere, with a slight crackling noise, Saddam's corpse's face just contorted into a grin. I SUPPOSE HE COULD HAVE PUT A NOOSE AROUND BUSH AND KILLED HIM BUT THOSE SHOE NEAR MISSES WILL DO.

that would be a 5 for Syd's comment.

Oh, also---if Bush were cool at all he might have pulled a "YOU MISSED ME BITCH"

It would happen on all 24 Hour News channels. I hate FOX the most, but let's call a spade a spade here.

Let's give Bush some credit. It WAS a pretty good dodge.

I have a feeling he's dodged some shoes in his day.

If only Monica Lewinski was as good at dodging...

I KNOW!

If only she was as good at dodging... blowjobs like Bush dodges shoes or...

If only Clinton could dodge Monica like Bush...

If only Linda Tripp... OK what the fuck are you talking about?

i think he was referring to "dodging" the aquisition of that incriminating dress stain.

Where ARE you from?

Does that matter?

It matters enough for you to define where you are from through negative definition, and enough for you to be hesitant to mention it.

But really I was curious to know if my intuition was right based on your phrasing and word choices.

I'll bite. I am born in the third-world but raised in the UK. Do tell if you were right!

Honestly, Bush had it coming.

I thought the UK because of your use of the words "a tad over" and "pissant." =]

Don't let poetv be an accurate depiction of American attitudes, oddeye.

Most of us here (at least the folks commenting on this video) don't consider Bush our elected leader, nor do we harbor such nationalistic notions as "...[having] his eyes plucked out, his hands amputated and his nose power-sanded from his face" for somebody that threw a shoe at the president. The whole shoe-insult thing goes right over our head anyways (pun unintended), so we couldn't really give two fucks about that in the first place. It would seriously be like a Brit traveling to Alabama, giving somebody the two-fingered salute, and shouting "yob" or other such nonsense.

Oh, and the term "Third-World" is an American-coined dig at the countries that weren't part of the Cold War. You see, back in the 50s, America and all her allies were the "First-World", The evil Soviets and their ilk were dubbed the "Second-World", and everybody that didn't matter were the "Third-World". The latter was the only term that survived to this day, and is generally regarded by Americans as some country being a filthy backward shithole. You might want to use the "Developing Country" or "Pre-industrial" terminology instead.

I can honestly say that, as an America, I entirely do not mind if someone throws their shoes at our president, as long as said president is a complete cunt.

I think I get where you are coming from. To you this might be like throwing eggs or a custard-pie or something silly like that rather then pretty much the worst insult possible that this act is to me.

Still, it's nothing a bullet in the skull wouldn't resolve.

The only thing Bush should be trying to dodge now is bullets.

if he tries to dodge bullets like Neo in the first matrix, then his attacker should run up and kick him in the crotch.

Hey, we live in a free nation. It's okay to want to throw shoes at people.

The amusing part is, if he had been in America thrown a shoe at the regular guy, he probably would have just gotten the finger and nobody would even be thinking on it tomorrow.

Does anybody else remember when it was on the news that ol' W choked on a PRETZEL?

Bush has been ducking responsibilities for decades now, he's got plenty of practice.
