zeitgeist57 Posted December 14, 2008 Report Share Posted December 14, 2008 Quick reflexes! I liked how the Iraqi was screaming "Don't tase me, bro!" as he was being tackled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpaceGhost Posted December 14, 2008 Report Share Posted December 14, 2008 I wonder if any other president in the history of presidents has been assaulted like that? Fucking Shoes? I hear the worst insult you can give is to hit someone with your shoe. I remember when we tore down the Saddam Statue in Bagdad early in the war the Iraqis were throwing their shoes at the statue.

Science Abuse Posted December 14, 2008 Report Share Posted December 14, 2008 As hilarious as that is, I'm disappointing that he got two shots off before anyone noticed. Should have thrown his chair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avenger1647545502 Posted December 15, 2008 Report Share Posted December 15, 2008 In Arabic culture, striking somebody with a shoe means something along the lines of, "You are beneath me" or "I wipe the shit from my feet upon you." It's an EXTREMELY insulting gesture, almost as bad as a slap to the face with the left hand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FourString Posted December 15, 2008 Report Share Posted December 15, 2008 Wow its funny Bush got some quick reflexes! No shit! He ducked fairly quickly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TTQ B4U Posted December 15, 2008 Report Share Posted December 15, 2008 In Arabic culture, striking somebody with a shoe means something along the lines of, "You are beneath me" or "I wipe the shit from my feet upon you." It's an EXTREMELY insulting gesture, almost as bad as a slap to the face with the left hand. Bush should have had the boys hold him down while he hit him with his shoes. Seriously though, I thought that was a pretty slow reaction from the Secret Service. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Science Abuse Posted December 15, 2008 Report Share Posted December 15, 2008 Only 3? i would of figured are 8 He was protected from it, right up until the 2004 election. Then it was safe for everyone to stop kissing his ass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
