President Bush ducks as the shoes are thrown

A surprise visit by US President George Bush to Iraq has been overshadowed by an incident in which two shoes were thrown at him during a news conference.

An Iraqi journalist was wrestled to the floor by security guards after he called Mr Bush "a dog" and threw his footwear, just missing the president.

The US president has now continued to Afghanistan to inspect troops there.

He arrived before dawn at Bagram air force base, and is due to hold talks with President Hamid Karzai.

Earlier in Baghdad, Mr Bush and Iraqi PM Nouri Maliki signed the new security agreement between their countries.

The pact calls for US troops to leave Iraq in 2011 - eight years after the 2003 invasion that has in part defined the Bush presidency.

If you want the facts, it's a size 10 shoe that he threw
US President George W Bush

Speaking just over five weeks before he hands over power to Barack Obama, Mr Bush also said the war in Iraq was not over and more work remained to be done.

His previously unannounced visit came a day after Defence Secretary Robert Gates told US troops the Iraq mission was in its "endgame".

'Size 10'

In the middle of the news conference with Mr Maliki, Iraqi television journalist Muntadar al-Zaidi stood up and shouted "this is a goodbye kiss from the Iraqi people, dog," before hurling a shoe at Mr Bush which narrowly missed him.
With his second shoe, which the president also managed to dodge, Mr Zaidi said: "This is for the widows and orphans and all those killed in Iraq."

14. Even though the shoes missed, his words were heard worldwide

Priceless!

5. Mr Zaidi: I think I love you

6. Nice aim, dork

Did he not think to practice his shoe flinging before the big show? Gotta work on the fundamentals, kids.

[redqueen]

7. I thought he was dead-on...

but that Bush has quick reflexes and ducked.

The second shot was a little high.

[MrCoffee]

9. To be fair, he had the second shoe in the air in really fast time

I was amazed at how quick he got it off and flung.


I was equally amazed that Prezident Monkeyboy didn't throw a shoe right back. That's the kind of classy move we expect from The Decider.

12. Maybe he is used to people throwing stuff at him.

10. Desert air is dry

You don't get the sharp break on a curveshoe like you would in less-arid climes.

[MrCoffee]

11. A hanging curveshoe spells trouble with a capital T

:rofl:

curveshoe...nice.

[Oeditpus Rex]

15. Imagine how a knuckleshoe would act

:D

[Rabrrrrrr]

8. Yes! I finally saw the video today, and I laughed my ass off!

I didn't realize he had to duck to avoid them.

That and the dead-eye glaze reading the goat book on 9-11 are the two images that define his presidency.

This is beauty. I celebrate beauty.
