    The real tragedy here is that The Daily Show is off this week and Bill Maher's season has already ended. Plus, SNL is six days away.

    I just watched the BCC video. If I was the president and anything came flying at me, my initial panic thoughts would be, "I am one assassinated MF." But when his aide runs over, Bush waves him away and calmly says, "I'm alright." Then he stands grinning and telling everyone not to worry about it. He's either one cool cat or he really doesn't have anything upstairs. I would have been running toward Tehran if I was in his shoes (no pun intended).
     
  4. I'm obviously not a big Bush guy, but I'm really pissed at that.
     
  5. Those are some bigass thumping shoes, too.
    Cop shoes, as my father, whose father was a cop, would call them.

    Nicely done. You're clearly a journo for the Internet age. You were first. Then you were better. Can't wait to see your next update.

    :D

    I promise it will include nonsensical opinions stated loudly and with absolute certainty. :)

    What really gets me here is that the guy got a second shoe-throw off before he got leveled by the Secret Service. That thought is a little scary.

    Bush: "All I can report is that the size of the shoes is a 10."
