Shoe-Hurling Iraqi Becomes a Folk Hero
 

This must be a first, a President getting a shoe tossed at his dome? This could only happen to W.

You kidding? With his mind, he would automatically redirected the shoe back to the orginal thrower and it would have landed with a comprehensive health care package.

Obama would have taken it right upside the head and we would have never heard about it.

Throwing shoes. What an advanced culture these Arabs have. The incident put me in mind of Kipling:

"...Take up the White Man's burden--
And reap his old reward:
The blame of those ye better,
The hate of those ye guard--
The cry of hosts ye humour
(Ah, slowly!) toward the light:--
'Why brought he us from bondage,
Our loved Egyptian night?'..."


etc. etc.

I can't think of any reason why spitting on someone is more advanced than throwing your shoes at someone. Clearly if you wanted to insult Bush throwing your shoes at him was the best option.
