We are nothing if not timely here at the KC. I'm sure this guy will be getting the Iraqi equivalent of the Congressional Medal of Honor in a few years. But for now, the government has to feign outrage at such an incident. And how about that Secret Service? You always here about how they are trained "to take a bullet" for the President, but not a size 10 Rockport? Or was that an "Iraqport"? Sorry about the Fozzie Bearesque attempts at humor today but it's that kind of mood around here as Christmas vacation creeps closer and closer. The kids are getting crazier with every passing day.
The most outrageous thing about this incident was not the shoe throw itself but how one would think that this would actually rattle Dubya. Instead, true to form, never letting on that he finally "gets it". . . "it" being reality. This interview, at 1:27, "I don't know what his beef is." Classic. Ex-presidents are given Secret Service protection for 10 years after they leave office. I'm thinking that the American taxpayers will be paying for his protection well into his geriatric years.
Have fun with this new game. The object is to hit the shoes, not the Prez.
