Act Your Age George, Not Your Shoe Size

I’ll say one thing for George Bush, he might be dim, but he sure is quick. Who would have thought?

On a farewell tour to Iraq, Bush was answering questions at an impromptu press conference with the Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki in Baghdad, when he narrowly missed not one but two shoes being hurled at him by a disgruntled Iraqi reporter who called Bush a “dog."

Like Quick Shaw McDraw, Bush ducked, dived and dodged those pesky Iraqis and won the good fight.

The funniest part was afterwards, you could see that the debacle had actually woken George out of his usual dumbass stupor. He had a smirk on his face as if to say you’re going to have to do lot better than that boys. C’mon hit me. Give me your best shot.

He even cracked a sort of semi-joke,

“I’m OK. “It doesn’t bother me. So what if he threw a shoe at me. All I can report is it is a size 10."

Excellent reporting George. Somebody from secret service get those shoes analysed immediately.

Nobody else seemed amused. In fact, in Arab culture to throw your shoes at someone is the ultimate sign of utter disrespect which pretty much sums it all up.

Interesting to note is the speed as to how quickly anyone else seems to react. Check out the footage below.
