    BAGHDAD – On an Iraq trip shrouded in secrecy and marred by dissent, President George W. Bush on Sunday hailed progress in the war that defines his presidency and got a size-10 reminder of his unpopularity when a man hurled two shoes at him during a news conference.

    If there's any justice they'll erect statues of him where the statues of Saddam once stood.

    The guy in Germany that threw the dud hand grenade at Bush got life in prison.

    If we put Bush in a booth and charged everyone a dollar to throw one at him...

    We could save the economy. New age of prosperity to America. Bush vodoo dolls are our number one export.

    Hurray America.

    That is a matter of opinion. I don't think it's sad at all.

    Lucky for Bush, they didn't try the old 'bomb in the shoe' trick like that terrorist on the aircraft a few years ago. :)

    I'm sure throwing the shoe made the correspondent for Al-Baghdadia television, an Iraqi-owned station based in Cairo, Egypt seem like a "Journalistic freedom fighter" to whomever watches his show.

    I wouldn't doubt if the guy turned out to be the Bill O'Reilly of middle east "news".

    It was quite a publicity stunt, I hope both of them get thrown in jail.

    The shoe should have been filled with concrete.
