NOTE: I AM ONLY COMMENTING ON DODGEBALL SKILLZ HERE. IT IS ONLY A COINCIDENCE IT IS THE PRESIDENT. NO POLITICAL COMMENTARY IS INTENDED AT ALL.
Having got that out of the way, has everyone seen Bush dodge not one, but 2 shoes thrown from point blank range? It was ---smurfing--- awesome!! That first dodge is classic. The whole thing has that 'viral video' feel to it. I wonder when the "FAAKE" callers will come out of the woodwork?

That vid breaks it down from 2 vantage points, and throw in slo-mo for good measure.

Im pretty sure I tracked down the perpetrator.

Who throws a shoe? Honestly.

Arabs and Muslims. It has a very specific and very vulgar message in their culture. It might be worse than if someone pissed on him here.
Know who I don't want on that team? Whoever was working Secret Service in that room. That dude should have been choking up his spleen before the second shoe even left his foot.

hmm unlikely he could have got a weapon in there, and like chad said the sole of the shoe is a massive insult in their culture, gutted he missed him though.

My thoughts exactly. That he was able to remove and throw two different shoes before being touched is just unreal.

Hindsight 20/20 tells me that he could have went all the way and got in at least one punch before anyone was on him. But if Bush moves that fast, it may have been another Nolan Ryan/Robin Ventura adventure.

Bush's verbal response was unusually quick and sort of off the mark. I’m thinking everybody assumed there would be some disturbance so a defense to a verbal attack was prewritten and how the secret service would handle it was also practiced.
This guy was a member of the press. They were probably told the USA does not want an agent pummeling an un armed Iraqi reporter all over you tube.

It would be a nice and effective reminder. They could post the footage on a pike outside every presidential press conference.

I'd agree, if it this happened at a French press conference.

Random Task, aka former UFC fighter Joe Son....
Was arrested in Los Angeles in May 2008. Plead guilty to felony vandalism. As part of his plea agreement, Joe had to submit a DNA sample. In October 2008, his DNA sample was matched against an unsolved rape from 1990. Due to the seriousness of the crime, he faces up to a 275 year sentence.

Holy crap!
I guess that fight in which Keith Hackney repeatedly punched him in the balls really f'ed him up mentally.
-
Wow. I had no idea who he was other than Random Task. Learn something new (and disturbing) everyday!
-
Ahh, apparently he did that rape 4 years before the infamous 'nut pounding'. Well then, apparently Hackney had knowledge of the scum bag pre-fight. >:D
-
I saw they get Keith Hackney for the next Punisher movie.

I don't care what country I'm in or what their culture is, I'd take a shoe to the head before I'd let someone piss on me!

Yeah, I used to cringe when watching that. Now I'm like, "Good on ya"
