ur usually absent president made a surprise trip to war-torn Iraq this weekend. And, apparently, not everyone was ready to welcome Bushy with open arms: at an impromptu press conference, an Iraqi journalist felt compelled to bend down, release foot from shoe, and subsequently launch said shoe at our (not)beloved president!Bush (with impressively quick reflexes, I might add) ducked and kind of laughed off the shoe-pelting... but before he could blink, WHOOSH! the same man chucked his second shoe at the President's head! A near-miss!Fortunately, Bush had a good sense of humor about the whole thing, even commenting on the "size-10" nature of the shoes (check out the NY Times article HERE). Not sure what, exactly, he was trying to prove with the "size 10" comment, but... I find the whole situation majorly laughable, regardless.Enjoy! more about "Bush almost gets whacked!", posted with vodpod

I'm so glad that Bush had a good sense of humor about this, because it's freakin' hilarious. And MSNBC, as usual, tries to turn it into a fear-inducing piece of journalism.
