I was honestly surprised that Bush was able to duck both shoes. Especially with the reports that he's been hitting the bottle pretty hard recently. In fact, Bush supposedly cut his face by falling off the couch drunk. This is the same man who CHOKED ON A PRETZEL AND GAVE HIMSELF A BLACK EYE. He is more of a danger to himself than anyone else is. Especially a shoe thrower.

No instead we have a man who was given the opportunity to live his life as free as possible in a fledgling democracy, and he goes out and attacks the man and the nation which gave him that freedom. Maybe we should pull out... and maybe they'll be more grateful to the Iranians once that invasion starts
In case you've ignored the details. This mans family was killed during this war. So as far as he is concerned, I'm sure Bush is worse than Hussein in that regard. I don't think this really matters.

No I didn't ignore the details, I just stopped reading when I got to the poor Iraqi part. As I said if you don't respect the man, respect the office. I don't care if you didn't vote for him, disrespecting the President of the US is like wiping your ass with the Flag.

Oh and Panama boy, your country wouldn't exist if it wasn't for the US. You would still be some Colombians slave if we didn't recognize the "revolution" when we wanted to build the canal

I admit I was super impressed with Bush's cat-like reflexes. That would have been a direct face hit...

Well, I, for one, am not an American citizen, but I think I can safely say that one's president is the first one who should respect his/her office, and Bush certainly hasn't in quite a few occasions. If a person wants respect, he/she ultimately needs to earn it.

What does that have anything to do with this discussion? Besides, that last statement is not necessarily true.

I agree that a certain level of respect is actually "inherited" by a president elect. But when the president's term is over, the respect he/she leaves office with is entirely his/her own.
