NBC Nightly News just opened with the "Shoe Shot"

[lpbk2713]

Shit-for-Brains is now the horse's ass of the whole world.

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

1. did they mention the shoe thrower was kidnapped and tortured?

[lpbk2713]

2. The story continued for five minutes.

The story that took the rear seat behind this one was the power outage in the northeast.

They said shoe thrower lost family members in the war and he had been kidnapped previously.

3. But they also showed Bush saying

he was amused!

11. the hate behind the shoe throw will never occur to him.....dumbass

[mucifer]

4. great!

[Jack Rabbit]

9. It's hard enough to disapprove of this act

Knowing the man's background, I actually regret he didn't aim lower and throw harder.

[SammyWinstonJack]

5. He wasn't the horse's ass of the whole world before this?

:shrug:

[lpbk2713]

14. True that.

But just in case anyone need any further confirmation .... :eyes:

6. I love it. This is what his visit will be remembered for. That, and his idiotic response.

The man is truly a psychopath. He thinks the Iraqis worship him as a god. He just doesn't get it, and never will.

7. I was watching football at a local bar and when news of this was shown some people laughed

a few clapped but a lot of them were upset that somebody would do this to the president of the united states. I would say that more than half were outraged by it. Probably what the country as a whole will feel. I was in the minority--as long as it wasn't a bomb or a gun I laughed and said "good for you" and so did my friends.

12. Next time you go to that sports bar leave a few of these - graphic

13. I'm outraged that the president of my home

DESERVES to have shoes thrown at him.
That, and MUCH worse. Bush is a POS.

[GentryDixon]

8. That poor journalist is headed for GITMO,

never to be heard from again.

[csziggy]

10. I thought he had already been to Abu Gareb

At leas that was the first impression I got when I heard he had been kidnapped and tortured.

[GentryDixon]

15. Yes, that is what I understand.

The shoe is a sign of disrespect in Iraq, i.e., bottom of the sole. Shameful it must come to this.
