    Bravo!

    Seriously, the end part, almost sounded like smart George Bush. It may be the hangover, but I understood what he was saying.

    Super quick reaction time, though President Bush was almost was hit by the second shoe due to Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al Maliki blocking his line of sight to the attacker.....

    I have to say that I am surprised that someone can get a shoe off at the President of the United States.....let alone two.....

    Nice dodge by the prez . I like how he just stood there after the first shoe was thrown.
    You know, I don't think too much of him as a president but I really think George is a cool guy.

    How can you have your non-dairy pudding substitute if you don't eat your wok-braised tofu?

    Nice dodge! That was probably the best move of his presidency.

    No, he's still dodging the question; really, why did we go to Iraq?

    I guess I've never noticed it before, but that's a great signature James.
