A good throw should have been about a foot lower in anticipation of the duck..
Did the dog survive FB?

Oh aye, not a bother to it
yes, too bad bush didn't get it in the mouth. idiot.
Just looking at the face on Bush after the first one is thrown I think he's almost laughing.
"He was only exercising his new found freedom of expression".... Some retort though in fairness to reporters
that were shooting the load over themselves with glee :D :D
To be fair the first one was a great throw and Bush did well to get out of the way.
its a wonder he wasn't shoot before he got the second one off
Christ that first one was travelling some speed - with a big heavy leather sole on it. Would have left a mark.

I was amazed at that as well. Where were the blokes with the shades that talk into their sleeves? Everyone just stood around while he took off the second shoe and let fly with that as well. Anyone who has been through an airport recently knows America has shoes on the dangerous weapons list. I can't believe he was allowed to deploy his full arsenal without being taken out. Maybe they don't give a shite about Bush any more, since it's nearly full time and the game is lost, so he's left to duck and dive and look after himself.

Yeah I didnt give him credit for the first throw.. It would have put Dubbyas lights out.
Wonder who the Iraqi guy beside him was waving at on the second attempt!
Seen on the news where thousands of Iragis have taken to the streets looking for your man's release from prison.
He's a national hero and is being put up for election.
Feck it, I'm hurling my shoe at Baker Bradley at the McKenna Cup press night.
Egyptian offers daughter to Iraqi shoe-thrower
An Egyptian man said Wednesday he was offering his 20-year-old daughter in marriage to Iraqi journalist Muntazer al-Zaidi, who threw his shoes at U.S. President George W. Bush in Baghdad Sunday,
The daughter, Amal Saad Gumaa, said she agreed with the idea. "This is something that would honour me. I would like to live in Iraq, especially if I were attached to this hero," she told Reuters by telephone.
Her father, Saad Gumaa, said he had called Dergham, Zaidi's brother, to tell him of the offer. "I find nothing more valuable than my daughter to offer to him, and I am prepared to provide her with everything needed for marriage," he added.
Zaidi's gesture has struck a chord across the Arab world, where President Bush is widely despised for invading Iraq in 2003 and for his support for Israel.
Amal is a student in the media faculty at Minya University in central Egypt.
Zaidi's response to the proposal was not immediately clear.
Hell for leather
It was just a spat.
Youd probably have taken the (cheap brand) UGGs offa your millie and thrown them. Being a spide and all.
You paid way to much for those brogues and you are getting good mileage outta them.
