I have gotten the biggest kick out of the journalist that threw both of his shoes at President Bush during a press conference in Iraq. This marks the proudest I have been of our President. Not only did he deftly duck the first shoe, but he seemed to chuckle just before he ducked to avoid the second shoe.
The video raises questions? Where was the Secret Service? Not only did the journalist have the opportunity to throw one shoe - he then bent down, took off his other shoe and threw it at the President. Had the President not ducked, the shoes would have hit him squarely in the face. The thud of the shoes on the wall behind the podium leads me to believe that they were fairly heavy and were thrown with pretty good force.
Which leads me to my second question...Given that the Milwaukee Brewers lost pitching ace C.C. Sabathia to the money-flaunting New York Yankees, might this journalist be welcome in the Brew City? If he can throw a baseball like he threw the shoes, there might be hope for the Brewers.
