    I gotta agree with Brett here. Regardless of who it is, projectile kicks are comedy gold. That and the fact that he went all "matrix" against the guy.

    Amen. I mean, if you think about it, it's something your girlfriend or wife might do to you for pissing them off. It's kind of a girly way to show your displeasure. Somebody needs to let the guy know that in our country, that would be a girly thing to do. That would really piss him off :D

    He wasn't throwing a shoe at Bush, but at America. Bush just happened to be the American on the podium.

    I can't believe I'm trying to get a point across to a 22 yr old without a clue(believes everything the uber-liberal media feeds him). No offense to the 22 yr olds that actually know some facts.

    Anyway, you won't have to deal with your hatred of Bush much longer, you get to drool all over yourself with your savior soon enough.


    I have no problem with shoes. Let's just hope they never get nukes. Now THAT would be bad. :(

    Personally, I found it quite humorous when my country's Prime Minister got nailed in the face with a pie.

    I love how so many of you got so worked up over basically nothing. To the point where I'm now on your ignore lists. I suppose you can't read this now anyway. It's really quite sad though. Some of you are throwing a hissy fit over the fact that someone has different beliefs and values than you do. You're talking about how I need to be an American, and be outraged about this, but the fact that I'm not outraged is one of the things that makes me an American. I have the choice not to be.

    This will certainly be my last post in this thread, and just know that I haven't added anyone to my ignore list, because I don't need it to ignore you if I so wish to.

    I recommend this thread be locked.

    Shut the hell up. You really have nothing credible to say.

    You continue to antagonize while claiming you are the most patriotic person around.

    Live a couple of years and figure it all out..

    It is not about hating someone who holds an office, it is about respectfully disagreeing (or agreeing) with that person's point of view (or politics).

    Your stance of essentially hating George Bush, our President, has distorted your view of what is acceptable and unacceptable behaviour toward our country the United States of America.

    Son, you have a lot to learn.

    Well...I respect my mother a lot more than I respect George Bush. She actually has good moral values, something that G. Bush tends to lack a lot of the time.
    She doesn't appear to have passed them along ... So either she didn't really have any or you're denser than lead.

    If you try hard you can probably get another foot in that mouth.

    With all due respect, for all you know this guy has had several of his family/friends killed because of this war.......really though, regardless of his circumstances, at worst it was a dumb thing to do in front of an entire room of cameras........

    If Bush can joke about it being a size 10 yada yada yada, then I'd suggest y'all follow suit and loosen whatever's on too tight and relax. So the guy doesn't respect W.....welcome to about 65% of America.......People can absolutely dislike the leader of a country without hating all the citizens of said country.

    I could see this level of outrage if he pulled a gun.......but a shoe?!?!? yikes........

    Obviously you don't get it either ...
    Or your panties are wound too tight.......if the worst that happens to Bush (not America) is a shoe is thrown at him for the war, then I'd consider that a HUGE blessing on his part......hypersensitivity is tiresome.....relax.

    But it happened "over there" right? Doesn't that make it a much better thing because no one threw a shoe at him here within our walls?

    Sorry if the shoe thrown round the world got you riled up and ruined your existence....sucks to be you.

    That is the most rediculous statement you've yet to make. What moral values does Mr. Bush lack?

    I'm sure Bush, and America both, have certainly done 'something' along the way to 'somebody', to warrant at least a shoe attack, even if it's something you might not know about (although, personally, I can think of several). It's called 'karma'. Man, I just can't believe how pompous, arrogant and condescending some people are coming off as :rolleyes:

    Thanks goodness you respect your mother more than George Bush. I am not attacking you by the way. You are entitled to your opinion with out question. George Bush is a good man with high morals and for anyone to question that means your a democrat PERIOD.
    I am going to mix myself a cocktail and listen to my awesome system. The reason I can do that is because I can afford to pay my taxes in this communist/democrat run state of New Jersey. Its sad the bad always pushes out the good.

    What would be a real hoot is if at next Polkfest we all broke into a shoe throwing tirade!!!!:D I'll bet most of us can't duck as well as our Chief Executive did.
