This is so awesome!!! While Bush was on his farewell visit to Baghdad on Sunday as the President, he got served! And what a nice parting gift he got! An Iraqi reporter Muntadhar al-Zaidi threw EACH of his shoes one at time, on Bush’s face. BUT — I hate this part — he missed!! I read a whole lot about (stupid) stuff Bush said to save his face but I liked the following best:
“So what if the guy threw his shoe at me?”
“Let me talk about the guy throwing his shoe. It’s one way to gain attention. It’s like going to a political rally and having people yell at you. It’s like driving down the street and having people not gesturing with all five fingers. … BLAH BLAH!!”
“These journalists here were very apologetic. *Some crap said by bush missing
* “
Bush said it was “a size 10 shoe he threw at me…” I bet he must be pretty proud because he’s had too many shoes thrown and now he can make out the size too! Lol!
Best: “All this basically says is we made good progress, and we will continue to work together to achieve peace.” Yea right. Or maybe he’s always dreamed of dying by a shoe-shot(huh?). That’ll give him some piece of peace in the bushy grave.
“This reminds me of Gates getting cake in his face!” — I said this. Heehee.
Poor al-Zaidi is currently in jail. Stupid governments.
May God bless Bush with a hint of brain. Amen.
Btw, the video is out everywhere. Just google Bush shoe and see how (un)lucky a shoe can get!
Stumble It!
You think this is AWESOME?…You’re a BEEPing ABEEPLE!!
wooohh new way to gift shoes
@tom
Well, it’s the frustration of Iraq people. What they’ve suffered, we can’t even imagine.
@Amit
haha
yeah, but still not the best way to do so. Especially if the one you are gifting is the President of America. lol.
