Tell us how you really feel...

I do have to say, Bush didn't seem phased by it.

I was surprised secret service agents didn't immediately run in front of him. It could have been much more dangerous than it was.

They should have taken the shoe in the chest.

Maybe all the top secret service men are focusing on Obama now, who let's face it, would need a lot of body guards.

Eh...to be sure, those reporters went through a screening process that probably included an orifice check before ever getting into that room. I'm shocked the cameras even worked after being dismantled in an explosive check prior to the conference.

However, my guess is the SAC on scene will be guarding the Reagan ranch from now on...The fact that they guy not only got one shot off but had time to reload and fire a second shot before Sec. Service even made the stage is unbelievable.

Didn't really get any laughs. Helps when people speak the same language as you though.

Playing down the incident, the president later added: "I don't know what the guy's cause is... I didn't feel the least bit threatened by it."

Seriously, nice dodge..
The reporter is Muntazer al-Zaidi of Al-Baghdadia, which is based on Cairo. AFP says other journalists there apologized to Bush.

The soles of shoes are considered the ultimate insult in Arab culture.
How many ultimate insults do these people have? There's a new one every week.

In case you haven't realized it yet, in the future that video clip will come to define the Bush presidency.

I love the way Bush awesomely dodged the first shoe, then looks back at the guy and just smiles.... "best you've got?"

Shouldn't the secret service guys have come and dived in the way, like in the epic movies?

I don't know what you're on about. The Iraqi dude next to Bush kinda sorta put his hand up to block the second shoe. If that doesn't say new ME ally then I don't know what does.

Throwing a shoe.. no. If he had tried assault with a deadly weapon ..yes. I doubt he will be getting a free trip to Gitmo.
