President Dodges Size 10 Shoes from Reporter
An Iraqi journalist threw two shoes at President George W. Bush at a press conference in Baghdad, Iraq. The reporter that tossed the shoe has been identified by AFP as Muntazer al-Zaidi and at first hurled an insult at the American president and then let fly both shoes, one at a time.
The president showed he is still able to dodge and weave quite well with the shoe toss. The first shoe was heading straight for the head of George W. Bush but he made a quick move to get out of the way. The second shoe only narrowly missed its mark.
Bush laughed it off and the reason we believe it was a size ten shoe is that is exactly how the president describes it. The report from AFP notes that some Iraqi journalists apologized to President Bush but he told them that wasn’t necessary.

doesn’t he have bodyguards for a reason? what happened to them? where were they?
Thank You President Bush
If this happened to Obama …. there would condemnation throughout the press world. We as Jews, should be thankful to President Bush for taking out Suddam. He personally paid for any who blew themselves up in Israel to murder Jews.

That guy should have tried the same trick on Sadadam. Only I guess he knew he wouldnt have survived the act.
The reporter should only realize that the only reason he could throw a shoe without being killed is because of Bush himself.

What an outragous act! Only an arab or a demented liberal could do such a thing. I also wonder where were the bodyguards, they didn’t show up. I hope the whole world noticed the calm reaction of President Bush. I am so sorry this happened. Hashem should continue to bless this man who so well symbolizes what greatness and decency lie within the United States and americans.

Esther,
its nice to see such a strong show of support for our dear president but i find it a bit disconcerting that in the very same breath you exhale a racist generalization and condemn all Arabs. How is it that you find it so easy to differentiate between “liberals” and “demented liberals” and yet you wont grant that same justice to the Arabs of the world? why cant we say that there are civilized Arabs and “demented” Arabs? do you truly believe then that all Arabs are evil? if so, it might be time for a paradigm shift…..
