You know, Bush could show he's got some decency in him by making a personal request that the man be released without charges.

I see what you threw in there submitter.

Talk about sabotage

All in all, one of my favorite Beastie Boys tracks. I also think that Spike Jonze knocked it out of the ball park with the video.

Wish I could re-caption that with "I see what you did there, submitter." It would go better with the pic

I wish I could figure out what's going to happen in Iraqi parliamentary politics next, but my crystal ball ain't so crystal clear.

/Sabotage with a shoe is kicking it old-school.

Man, that Bush guy turns Iraq to sh*t every time he looks at the place!

This should be Bush's thing. Like wherever he goes, people throw their shoes at him. Seems appropriate. As for the Iraqi government, it's about as legitimate as the Iraq war was.

EvilElecBlanket

One and done.

He's gonna set it straight, this Watergate.

Sabotage... shoes.... I see what you did there subby, and I approve.

I've been praying to Saint Hubbins for this day.

Cyclometh: You know, Bush could show he's got some decency in him by making a personal request that the man be released without charges.

Unfortunately, he has none.

Now, now...we might be getting a bit too educational around here.

Talk about sabotage

"Sabotage" is a 1994 song by the American hip hop group Beastie Boys. It appears on their album Ill Communication. The song's style is characterized as rapcore, featuring traditional rock instrumentation (Adrock on guitar, MCA on bass, and Mike D. on drums), turntable scratches and heavily distorted bass guitar riffs.

In 2004, Rolling Stone ranked "Sabotage" #475 on their list of the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time. In March 2005, Q magazine placed it at number 46 in its list of the 100 Greatest Guitar Tracks.

The song is a playable track for both the video games Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock and Rock Band.

It is also the theme tune to BBC Radio Five Live's Sports comedy panel show Fighting Talk.

The song's main riff heavily resembles that of The Stooges "Penetration" from Raw Power.

Sabot = shoe in French for those who don't get it. And that was pretty sweet, subby.

I always though chaussure was shoes in French.

Sorry, sabot = wooden shoe.

Boy, chaos and instability just seem to emanate from that guy. Too bad we can't harness it.

The mustaches alone should have gotten him a Best Picture Oscar.

my favorite sabotage:

The reporter who threw his shoes at Bush has sparked a poltical crisis in Iraq

What, pray-tell, is a "poltical" crisis?

They could let Bush throw a pair of shoes at the reporter and call it even.

In America, or my part of America, he'd be looking at potentially much more than two years. Prosecutors would call the shoe a "dangerous weapon" raising misdemeanor assault to felony assault. There might be federal charges of assault on a federally protected diplomat too -- the equivalent of the "insulting" charge.

But really it should be treated as simple assault and disturbing the peace. Accept a guilty plea to that and sentence the guy to time served (and injury served).

+100 points, subby.

I can't stand it, I know that reporter planned it

Who knew, the power of a shoe...

/okay, I'll stop

King Something: What, pray-tell, is a "poltical" crisis?

A crisis that lead.

Took me a while to get it, but I also approve!

Who throws a shoe. I mean honestly.

Looks like we built a damned strong democracy over there.

cameroncrazy1984: Who throws a shoe. I mean honestly.

I love that quote.

But in serious response to that question: My mother. And her aim was pretty damned accurate when I was a kid.

Came for Cochise.

Very Satisfied.

While Sabotage is Ill Communication's biggest hit, I preferred the infectious flow of Sure Shot, the old school tribute Root Down and the Q-Tip accompanied Get it Together.

is that the slutty one from sex and the city?

JohnnyC: As for the Iraqi government, it's about as legitimate as the Iraq war was.

How is the current government illegitimate?

You think this is some kind of joke, libtards? Let me tell you, there's nothing funny about attempted mocassination.

/so sorry

It was entirely disrespectful for the reporter to throw a shoe at Bush. I mean would he throw a shoe at Obama. This was on the same level of disrespectfulness as Jesus being nailed to the cross.

I know the Beastie Boys, Star Trek movies, Black Sabbath and a smattering of French and I still don't get the headline.

Biological Ali: You think this is some kind of joke, libtards? Let me tell you, there's nothing funny about attempted mocassination.

That guy was a heel.

he shoed have known better

FTA: "Al-Zeidi could face two years imprisonment for insulting a foreign leader."

Funny. Listen to the neocons and we have already achieved "victory" in our mission to bring "freedom" to Iraq.

Biological Ali: Let me tell you, there's nothing funny about attempted mocassination.

We are just toeing the line.

They should just prorogue until everything calms down.



If we've learned one thing, ignoring your problems makes them go away.

That headline was laced with a bad pun.
