He really pelted it too. God, how much I would have loved to see the thick end of that sole connect with Mr Prez's face.

:D

    Its the custom in Iraq to throw shoes at someone/something they dont like. remember when they pulled Sadams statue down, there was mass pelting of shoes then!

    True, it is one of the lowest things you can get over you.

    It means something like "your are equal to the dirt/shit I am walking on"

    Bush just found it funny. Probably not knowing what this ment.

    I'd have thrown more than a shoe at him. Perhaps a grenade or a stick of dynamite!
    The trouble with tribbles is.......

    What would have been a classic moment is if Bush had took his shoe off and thrown it back at the guy

    I threw some Greggs pasty at Tony Blair once :D
    Every night is curry night!

    Wouldn't it have been weird if Bush had shot the shoes with laser beams from his eyes?

    Erm, I'll get me coat.

    yeah, but there is a Wayne Kerr in America who has skipped bail, and he probably doesn't give a shit that I found it funny. I have way too much spare time to google shit.

    If he'd caugt them, and then said something like, if you'd thrown them at Saddam, you'd be dead. I'm selling these on eBay, and giving the proceeds to UNICEF, it would be because you were watching a movie, by 20th Century Fox.

    If you watch around 0.13 into the clip you see a secret service guy about to bundle the president away and George moves his arm slightly and the secret service guy backs off.
