Nice duck but dude telegraphed his intentions as soon as he slipped off his shoes.
The socks were ripe.

No surprise there..the fucking Iraqi media would give press passes to insurgents and let them move around with them..to get the good shot..of course..

The Iraqi media even would act as FC's, stand in plain site with their press gear on. Of course the pilot with the JDAM did not give a shit and took care of that.

One question is ?? Where the fuck was the SS at here?

Those were the 2 best moves in his 8 years.

Paulie called in sick. Fredo handled it.

That's what I immediately thought. Not knowing if those shoes contained anything or had anthing sharp attached to them they should have jumped out in front of Bush immediately. Some agents on that detail are going to get chewed out after this incident.

Maybe.

Obviously, the Iraqi handled security and secured access into the press conference. Everyone had to pass through a metal detector. Interesting to see the back door open and agents pour out. Suits could also be seen in the audience reacting to the situation. Agreed, for the agents..the flight back home on AFO should be interesting.

They might want to reconsider their positioning in the room after this one. Most times that should have brought forth drawn weapons and NFL tackles on the raghead.

A shoe with Cemtex or other propellant and polycarbonate shrapnel..remote activation or some pressure switch..go right through the detector and still take out everybody inside of 3 to 10 meters. Duh...

And the SS trusts the Iraqi's ??

Might want to check in with our military as to how trust worthy and competent the Iraqi police / security/government is.

Dude's first effort was right on target. Woulda clocked the shrub had he not ducked. Second one sailed a bit high, showing signs of weariness. Definitely not starter material. More like a closer.

Wonder how bad of an asswhuppin' the Iraqi security put on him.

Derron wrote:And the SS trusts the Iraqi's ??

It would seem that they did. On home turf SS would never let this happen. dubya went there on a whim and obviously security suffered. Do you think the shoe guy was vetted?

The shoe-thrower -- identified as Muntadhar al-Zaidi, an Iraqi journalist with Egypt-based al-Baghdadia television network -- could be heard yelling in Arabic: "This is a farewell ... you dog!"

While pinned on the ground by security personnel, he screamed: "You killed the Iraqis!"

Al-Zaidi was dragged away. While al-Zaidi was still screaming in another room, Bush said: "That was a size 10 shoe he threw at me, you may want to know."

Really, who throws a shoe?

I heard there was some pretty dense fog in Bagdad.

He appears to lack the arm speed to generate the velocity for either roll, imo, and needs to develope another pitch or two. His mechanics also suck and would ultimately result in an injury plagued career.....probably already incurred some injuries as a result of his wildness. Definitely nothing more than a "Bush" leaguer.

You obviously know nothing of pitching. The righty in question has good stuff and obviously did not intend to bean the Dog--it's called Chin Music--and so too with the second delivery. He no doubt knew the difference between a poetic gesture and actual battery. What a brave and dignified pitcher he is--a true world patriot. Why couldn't some American journalist stand up to the utterly farcical hoax that is the Chimp et al.?

Just a bit high. By the laws of probability, you'd think one of those coulda drifted over the plate.

We were only told to keep the jews out.

A more crafty pitcher would have noticed the shrubs quickness in both ducking and unducking. He would have used this info and went to the change on the second shoe. W would have been way out in front of it and got clocked as he popped back up.

Just remember, it ain't all about velocity. Nolan Ryan discovered this and extended his career about 50 years.

Too bad W is not as badass as Nolan. He would have told the SS to step aside and let dude rush him. Then he'd make him his own robin ventura. He'd prolly see his poll numbers go up atleast 20 points.

Watching Bush reaction to that, it's amazing his lack of reaction to what could have been a potentially lethal situation. Derron's Jack Bauer scenario not withstanding, Bush sees dude throw - duck's but then continues to look at the dude like what the fuck?

It would seem, as POTUS in a muslim country if you see an object hurled at your head and it didn't connect or explode you may not want to stay there at the podium glaring as he rares back to launch round two - shoe or not.

What's wrong with Bush's reaction?

Sincerely,
Prince Charles

================================

NBC reported today that the SS thought that there was nothing wrong with how the agents were positioned & reacted.

I would expect such an answer from a federal law enforcement agency, but I'm betting that at least a couple of agents had new assholes torn either yesterday or today.

Bush isn't a Democrat.

More likely, they're now working the graveyard shift at Gitmo... and thankful they still have a job.

I was thinking about selling windchimes to a bunch of chainmail wearing fuckheads. After all, that's much more important to society than stopping the next terrorist attack or putting criminals in jail.

It is....

..."I" provide jobs and keep 12 manufacturers in business.... while you provide nothing other than being a SPONGE of the government.

How many garbage cans have you emptied.... or shall I say.... how many terrorists have you caught ?

I've zeroed in.... and the terrorist it YOU!!!

A sponge that doesn't produce a thing, yet collects a "salary" from hard working Americans.

Define "in business", please. Just out of curiosity.
