That really hurt! I'm gonna have a lump there, you idiot! Who throws a shoe? Honestly!

Wow. President Bush mentioned me in his press conference just after the shoe incident-

"It's like driving down the street and have people not gesturing with all five fingers. "

One of my proudest moments was having his limo diverted just a few feet from me and giving that ass just gesture he mentions.

  1. "The first was aimed right at his head, but luckily George W. Bush was quick enough to duck, although the shoe only narrowly missed. When the second shoe came flying, the President ducked again, also putting his hand up. Neither of the shoes hit their target and the journalist was dragged away by security forces."

    man... first a pretzel... now flying shoes.
    Surely somebody should try using an ACME hammer on him or something.
    Maybe we could leave a pile of birdseed outside his porch and suspend an anvil over it.
    Maybe because he's as goofy as a cartoon, people think he can only be harmed as a cartoon?

    *readies the 'dip'*
    muahahahahahaa

  2. Wow. I am in awe. And very, very jealous. However, most of us will never have the opportunity to fly an eagle at him, nor throw a shoe at him. So E.B. Misfit has suggested a way to make this a participatory activity, hopefully without incurring the wrath of the Secret Service. I have swiped that post and followed with some other commentary and links here. Cry Havoc, and let fly the shoes of war!

    A shout out from the President! Very impressive. As usual, Dean, you were ahead of the curve.
