    Who thought bush had that kind of reflex. He was quick..then he blocked the second shoe.

    Maybe we can get him in our FPS division.

    Also..how long till we see some flash games with this. Anyone got some skills should make one.

    heres the clip. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9uIj0YvDBKE

    I actually lol'd at this one, and clapped. My room mates gave me funny looks.

    Someone finally did it! XD Although I was hoping for rocks, but shoes work too.

    He is already a folk hero now in many countrys...libya gave him an award already..syria too I think..or just praised him.

    I read the guy is facing 7 years in an iraq prison for assaulting a visting head of state.


    cool find panacea..

    Cultural note: In Middle-Eastern countries throwing your shoe at someone (vs throwing random other objects) is a huge sign on disrespect.

    Nice find panc... lol

    I remember reading Bushes reaction to this was something like, "It was like getting flicked off by a random person." The Iraqi police are still holding the guy. Honestly as long as he didn't break any laws they should probably release him.

    Unfortunately, he did break some laws. Assaulting a foreign dignitary apparently carries a maximum 7 year prison sentence in Iraq now...

    He's lucky Bush is such a ninja because if those shoes had hit they would have included battery in the charges.

    I dunno, but he got a pretty serious beating according to news sources. He wasn't allowed to show up for his court appearance
