You just don't go around throwing things people. Ever. That's assault and battery.

He calls it a democratic freedom of expression!!
Frankly I think its just desserts.
You really cant be too decorous with Dubya - and also I think its ample demonstration of what the world thinks of Americans messing in Iraq anyway......
So go ponder on why it happened and not on how grave an affront it is.

It seems that some of you are applauding the thrower's "heroic behavior." Come on! He threw a pair of shoes at a leader (not his own) who's about to leave office. Perhaps it's been so long since we've witnessed true heroism that we can't recognize heroic deeds from a temper tantrum.

Well, this reporter was not a young student, staring down huge army tanks, ready to die, like those at the Tiananmen Square protest. This reporter was not putting everything on the line, hiding Jews in his home, like those who defied Hitler. This reporter was not sitting on a bus, facing police officers and guard dogs, knowing he was going to get beating and probably even killed, like the Freedom Riders who refused to back down to hatred and discrimination. No, this reporter is being glorified for something I'd expect to see on Ashton Kutcher's, "You Got Punked."

And, why does everyone seem to think that this journalist will be killed for it? Please, Bush aint exactly popular in that country. America isn't popular in that country.

I'm tired of hearing about what America did to Iraq. They weren't exactly bitching when American troops risked their lives to free them from the cruel hands of Saddam Hussein. As a matter of fact, I don't believe very many democratic countries bitched either. And I say again, the Iraqi govt. wants us there, then they don't, then they do, then they don't. And if this Iraqi reporter had a problem w/ U.S. troops in Iraq, he should take that up w/ his own govt. I don't care how the guy feels about my President—he sure as hell didn't have the balls to throw anything at Saddam.

I don't like Bush either. I think he lied about the WMDs, in order to gain the public's support of the war. I think he's the worst President we've ever had. I think he's overstepped his Presidential powers. I despise the man. I would love to help his ass pack so he can get the hell out of the White House. He's writing all these proclamations at the last minute; he seems hell bent on causing as much damage as possible before he leaves. And thankfully, my Constitution allows me to write this, to speak my mind about him, to protest his actions, to persuade my Congressional leaders to impeach him, etc. But, I can't hit him b/c he's pissed me off! He's still entitled to be safe. Let's act like adults. We don't deal w/ our frustrations; we don't settle our disagreements w/ violence. What is this, the wild, wild, west? You don't go around attacking people just b/c you don't follow their politics. Bush sucks. Amercian voters are also tired of that administration—and we handled it. We voted for change; we elected Obama. That's how it's done. No shoes necessary.

If you got into an argument w/ your biggest enemy and he threw his shoes at you, that's assault and battery. I don't care if you're the biggest asshole on the planet, you have a right to personal safety. Bush deserves the same. What if that was a bullet instead of a pair of shoes? And again, I'll be damned if I'm going to applaud some foreign asshole who attacked my President.

There are plenty of world leaders that I dislike. Jacques Chirac is no longer the leader of France, but I would've loved to throw something at him when he was. Currently, I can't stand Venezuela's leader, Hugo Chavez. I haven't attacked him though. And here's the thing, if an American attacked a foreign leader, the whole world would be calling for that American's head!!

Being a retired military person, I have always followed our Pres/Commander-in-Chief, regardless of his party affiliation.

In our democracy, each and every person has a right to their opinion(s); but as an American, I was taught to accept the President, even if I did NOT vote for him and respect his position; if NOT the person.

It hurts to see our own actually criticizing a sitting President and suggesting that something even more violent should/could have happened to him.

The Secret Service "will" certainly get reamed for their lack of response to this act........what if it was Pres-elect O'Bama, would those of you who were so down on Bush have been as critical of O'Bama ducking shoes being thrown at him?

I dare say NOT......

Sorry, but I could NOT help but rant about this; however, being in a true democracy, each and every one of us have this right to our opinions.....for we are living in a democracy where these freedoms are allowed...........

Go ahead and blast me for "my" opinion, for the military that Bush was speaking to and thanking for their service, deserve the credit for making this country safe and allowing you to dis-agree!

OMG SHOES

How typical. Bush might as well have gone.

"What what punk. I ain't afraid of no shoes. Duna duna dunananana. He's just ignorant. I'm not afraid of him."

*tough guy pose*

*waits for a shoe to hit him from behind*

His voice was quite shaky too. Cool and confident my ass..

The freaking shoulder shrug..Christ. Thank god he's leaving.

That one person tried to stop the guy from showing it the second time though. Looked more like he was being frisky though.

But damn bush got some good dodging skills. But then again. Dodging is probably his best talent

I don't really think it's funny. I can't blame the guy for throwing the shoe though. Hell I'm surprised it wasn't a rock or a cell phone or something like that. Obviously a coward who wanted to get a message across or just couldn't stand bush's speech and wanted to shut him up.

And yet Bush has no idea why he did that..

This is stupid.

But I'm sure it will be all over the media for days.

And, I think King George is an asshole, but let's face it—he was elected. TWICE!

Exactly.
More power to Americans who still wonder why this shoe throwing insult happened!!!

ALPHA and COCKTALES:

He's lucky he's not had more than just shoes thrown at him.

That truth is a solemn one
