Now he can have a matching pair or maybe he can get the two families in a bidding war on the dowry.

Considering how well the last thread went I'll just sit back and watch this one.

This guy will be running the country if he ever gets out of prison. Hell, I'd vote for him.

A soulmate called Pete?

Marry the bastard off.

/hanging's too good for him.

This guy is the iraqi version of a rock star. He'll be running that country in a few years. Plus, if he goes to prison, he will be a king while he's in. Two shoes = set for life.

again?

Got to give Dubya credit, he's got reflexes. Most drunks don't.

Meanwhile I'm still single......*sigh*
Maybe I should try wearing shoes.

So this is what a middle eastern folk hero in the making looks like.

America has John Henry, Paul Bunyan, and Johnny Appleseed. Iraq has Muntadhar the Shoe Guy. I really hope his legend grows and becomes embellished just for the kitsch potential.

I Said: Considering how well the last thread went I'll just sit back and watch this one.

heh.

/why is this being RE-greenlit anyway?

I was going to say that Al Zeidi-Bush is going to be one of the greatest duos ever... like Young-Rice or Manning-Harrison. But really, when you review the footage it's more like Rip Torn-Alan Tudyk.

the egyptian dude already offered his daughter

i wonder if they line them out and he picks the one with the biggest dowry

Okay, so it's a different family doing the offering and it's a better headline, so I guess technically this isn't a reapeat. :P

Thorndyke Barnhard: I Said: Considering how well the last thread went I'll just sit back and watch this one.

/why is this being RE-greenlit anyway?

I think it's another person. The last one was from Egypt, this one is Palestinian.

Shoe-Man has quite a potential harem going there.

Butterflew: i wonder if they line them out and he picks the one with the biggest dowry

Look at the dowry on that chick!

/Back that investment portfolio up, baby!
//*wolf whistle*

I don't get why the guy wasn't gunned down by the Secret Service.

You know who else was a folk hero for resisting a power trying to dominate his home country ?

IAOTH

Her name is Repeat

Mugato: I don't get why the guy wasn't gunned down by the Secret Service.

The Secret Service had their lace up shoes on that day.

He could be president?

/he'd be a shoe in!

You voted for Obama didn't you...

Mugato: I don't get why the guy wasn't gunned down by the Secret Service.

Not to go to that extreme, I just don't understand why the secret service wasn't in front of bush after the first shoe. The guy had time to take his other shoe off and throw it.....wtf?

Mercutio74: Mugato: I don't get why the guy wasn't gunned down by the Secret Service.

I just mean that if I flip off a local cop, I'm going to get tasered, beaten, maced, shot and a knife put in my dead hand (and I'm white). This guy throws footwear at the President and gets Egyptian girls thrown at him. It's not fair.

he could have my first born daughter!

Technically I voted for Jack Layton but it was a strategic vote in London-Fanshawe.

Move to Iraq?

More worryingly, footage of the incident shows Bush bracing for a third shoe ...

This just in: Muslims do not like Bush.

It's a pithy question for a guy who likely can't make cereal without causing a disaster.

Paternalistic jerk.

/If only you were not a white american you could accuse me of being racist!
//I know your kidding.
///still bitter about the last thread.

For you WoW geeks like me, check this one out if you havent seen it.

Too big to post here.

Technically, you voted for Irene Mathyssen (I'm assuming). But it was in support of Jack Layton. And THAT was strategic for London-Fanshawe.

/Parliamentary governance ftw!

Is this a repeat, or just another offer of a bride?

LMAO!!

You know, selling off our daughters to loveless marriages with strangers really, truly represents the traditional view of marriage over the last few millenia. We should return to it, because tradition is absolutely the way to go.

Beware of brides offered without the veil removed.

If I could wave a magic wand and make everything all right, I would.

/WOW! You'd DO THAT?? for US??!!!

Mugato: Got to give Dubya credit, he's got reflexes. Most drunks don't.

You're right about drunks... That explains a lot about how 'swift' Ted Kennedy is.

===========================================

Maybe you should flip off a cop who killed a kid or something. That's got to at least be good for a handjob.

PoopStain: It was a secure room. Since the people had been screened in advance, they weren't on the ball. Of course, they were making assumptions that they were in a civilized country. Anyone could make that mistake.

Very true... Americans make that mistake all the time, even in their own homes. :)

The Secret Service can take a bullet for the president, but shoes aren't in their contract.

You hit the bullseye on what's the core failing of the conservative mind. Preservation of tradition for it's own sake. Blind, uncritical implementation of dogma.

It's cowardly magical faith in other people's reasoning. Abdication of thought due to the fear of fu(king things up more.

Now get back in the kitchen!

Thank you, PendanticMAN! Another implied general knowledge short form answer broken down for exam like accuracy!

I feel safer, I really do.

For those criticizing the Thrower, just remember.

Don't judge a man until you've walked a mile in his...wait.

Never mind, carry on.
