Again, disrespecting a world leader through humor? I'll laugh. Disrespecting a world leader to his face? Gutsy. Physically assaulting a world leader? Out of line.

Throwing a shoe, for me, is not assault. It seems more like he was trying to put the lowest cultural shame on him that he could. I totally got it and died laughing. He didn't get hit and even if he did, he would have at worst just had a knot in the head.
Maybe if he had been used to having shoes flung at him in his youth (particularly toward his backside, as many people I know have experienced) he would have been a better president? Juss sayin'...

Think if was a woman who wears 3" heels, like a boomerang...
No, dude should have not thrown shoes at the US president, regardless how we think about the current POTUS.
My question has not been answered, first of all, why was he in Iraq to have shoes thrown at him--making shoes be a terrorist action... Especially fools with size 10 feet or above... They are liable to throwing shoes at our Presidents... Like a suicide shoe thrower-bomber... LOL...
Then secondly, some else ask, WHERE THE [expletive deleted] was the POTUS detail--EFF that I pay taxes for this President to be protected. I do not want to celebrate any holiday in remembrance of this person. Really. And I am sorry, I am not interested in reading President Bush's pop-up book with kiddie mazes, word finds, and connect the dots. No really...
I don't care, the POTUS detail should have check for people shoes being off in order to be thrown. This ain't the Springer show, dammit!!! Isn't that what the SS does when shoes are thrown at people? If that is a well known concept in the Islamic culture, then what's up with the POTUS detail? REALLY!!!

Just because it is considered offensive, doesn't mean that the SS should have everyone take off their shoes. All those journalists were searched several times---and they all didn't know that President Bush was going to be at the conference.
The SS was there but I serioulsy doubt they would have EVER thought shoes would have been thrown at the POTUS. In fact, a couple SS men went up to protect Pres Bush & he waved them off.
Here is an article about the lack of SS:

They already do...nothing new about that.
PhiGam has already busted a gasket.
I am sure he is burning my effigy even now.
