This Just In: President Attacked by Austin Powers Villain
"Who throws his SHOE? Really?"I'm sorry, I don't care WHAT your politics are - that's the funniest piece of news footage EVER. Nice to know the Secret Service is on the job, huh? What, were they backstage splitting a falafel and a Saddam-A-Cola? When you allow the President to not only get a shoe thrown at him in a hostile foreign country, but give the guy plenty of time to scream his discontent (which oddly involved a kiss metaphor...) and throw the OTHER shoe? There's going to be reprimands at tomorrow morning's Secret Service Waffle Breakfast, you can betcha.
They say that the shoe throwing thing is the most serious insult in Arab culture. Really? With the hacking of limbs, the beheadings, the hangings...THAT's the big insult? All right, I'll take your word for it.
Merry Christmas, Democrats. You know you wish you'd thought of it first. Those Birkenstocks are pretty aerodynamic...
Geez, dude, you thought OUR journalists were tough on you...
In case you missed it:

P.S. I heard a translation to English of the attacker's words after being taken down. They were "Don't taze me, bro!"

I saw this on The Daily Show. How hysterical was that? And I have to say, that's the first thing I thought of, too. Where the heck was the Secret Service?

Notice how the Iraqi President barely even flinched at the first shoe. After bombs and rpgs, a thrown shoe must be like rose pedals to him. Nice reflexes by George though.

By the way, it's "Don't TASE me bro". ;-)
