Looked the guy in the eye, grinned, and ducked the other shoe as well.

The shoe thrower has been identified as Muntadar al-Zeidi, a correspondent for Al-Baghdadia television, an Iraqi-owned station based in Cairo, Egypt. Might have guessed it, just another news media hack with Bush Derangement Syndrome.

Try that with Saddam a few years back and you would find yourself hanging from your thumbs while getting filleted. Welcome to freedom. You're welcome ahole.

If that'd been a sawed-off 12 or a hand grenade, Bush would be in a bag.
You really have to wonder where the Secret Service was.

Or better yet - passengers noticed a guy messing with his shoes on a plane, but some other guy in a room full of secret service, cameras and "impartial observers - media" completely did not notice the guy yanking a show and going into a wind up.

I bet they shooed him out of there really quick!
I saw a movie where only the military and the police had guns. It was called Schindler's List.

They don't search people for shoes! I'm thinking that they probably did a pretty good job of searching for the other things.

Bush dodges shoes thrown by an angry journalist BAGHDAD � On an Iraq trip shrouded in secrecy and marred by dissent, President George W. Bush on Sunday hailed progress in the war that defines his presidency and got a size-10 reminder of his unpopularity when a man hurled two shoes at him during a news conference. "This is a farewell kiss, you dog!" shouted the protester in Arabic, later identified as Muntadar al-Zeidi, a correspondent for Al-Baghdadia television, an Iraqi-owned station based in Cairo, Egypt. Bush ducked both shoes as they whizzed past his head and landed with a thud against the wall behind him. "It was a size 10," Bush joked later.

Probably not a real journalist...probably just some loafer.

The guy probably just did it just for kicks, but he's stepping on thin ice with a stunt like that.

Much more of this, and the whole thing will need to be retread.
