Shoes Thrown at President Bush
Supposedly, throwing a shoe at someone is one of the worst insults an Iraqi can give to anyone. But you have to admit that this looks pretty funny. I was surprised to see that Bush was able to move as fast as he did. Not to mention how slow the Secret Service guys appeared to be.
Bush totally shrugged off the incident and painted the shoe thrower as someone who craves attention, and mildly rebuked the reporter at the press conference for giving him that attention.
