An Iraqi "journalist" threw both his shoes at President Bush at a new conference in Baghdad.
The man is very lucky to have survived the incident. Hadley, the National Security adviser had been busy telling reporters on the trip how well things are now going in Iraq in comparison to events in '05 and '06. Sometimes you just can't win for losing.
Bush showed considerable aplomb under "fire." He sounded a little punch drunk or maybe jet lagged? I wonder if he is going on to Afghanistan and maybe Pakistan from Baghdad.
Like all the world, I just want him to go away. No "Peace and Justice Commission." Just go away --- and take Hadley, Rice, Addington, etc. with you. pl
