I’ve got some outrage for you.
First, I’d like to stomp the shiite out of the POS. Then, hang him.
No, Mr. President, this was not “amusing.” It took Secret Service forever to get up to the podium and it took forever for anyone to try to restrain the asshat (I’m being nice) who assaulted our president. Aiming anything at someone’s head is intent to commit murder.
No, the response should have been on behalf of the American people, what was done was an insult to all our brave troops and their families who served and sacrificed in Operation Iraqi Freedom to bring democracy to a stinking, ungrateful hell-hole peopled by barbarians who, when they are liberated, attack the Commander in Chief of those who spent time and treasure, who shed blood, thousands who made the ultimate sacrifice, who DIED dammit, who tried to train and educate the most backwards people on the face of the earth to govern themselves. And, this is the result?!!
Don’t ever introduce me personally to ANY Iraqi, because they will hear the above and more.
Thank you for expressing my sentiments. I wish President Bush would have picked up the shoe and thrown it back at the ingrate. And, since “our friend” Iraq Pres Maliki didn’t look too upset or concerned, he should have been bopped with the second shoe.
And, where were the Secret Service???? What if it was a weapon a lot more dangerous than a shoe?? And, I agree, this was not expressing free speech, it was an act of violence and should be treated that way. If this was done to Maliki in the U.S., the person would be in jail for a long time.
How disgraceful that the Iraqi people are supporting this low life. They are free thanks to President Bush and our military, their daughters can go to school, they’re not put in a shredder if they lose a soccer game.........INGRATES!!!!!
Well - if it makes you feel any better, some Iraqis don’t support the guy. (My favorite part is where he “crys like a girl”!):

“....Parliamentary reaction was mixed, with some saying Al Zaidi chose the wrong venue for his protest. Others cheered. Al Zaidi remained in detention on Monday, accused by the government of a “barbaric act”. He would be tried on charges of insulting the Iraqi state, said the prime minister’s media adviser, Yasin Majeed.
.....On a more serious note, colleagues of the Iraqi journalist said they are worried about him as they have yet to hear news about him. “They confiscated his mobile, I tried calling him but no answer. No one knows where he is now,” Dr. Abdul Hussain Shaaban, managing director of Al Baghdadiya Satellite TV, told Gulf News. Shaaban, who is also a human rights activist.....
.....An Iraqi government official, speaking on the condition of anonymity, said Al Zaidi was being held for questioning by Prime Minister Nouri Al Maliki’s guards and is being tested for alcohol and drugs.
...Al Maliki’s security crowded in on him, beating him relentlessly. Mohammed Taher, reporter from Afaq, a TV station close to the ruling government of Al Maliki, described Al Zaidi “crying like a girl.”
“All I can report is that it is a size 10,” Bush joked, as other Iraqi journalists reportedly rushed to apologise for Al Zaidi’s actions.
