Yes Sir, This nigga threw a shoe at him.  My day is done.



BAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!




So much for victory laps.

President Bush's farewell visit to Iraq degenerated into embarrassment and chaos Sunday when a disgruntled Iraqi newsman hurled his shoes and spewed insults at the lame-duck leader.

"This is a gift from the Iraqis. This is the farewell kiss, you dog!" the man cried in Arabic, leaping to his feet and flinging a shoe at Bush during a Baghdad news conference with Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki.

Then he threw a second shoe and yelled: "This is from the widows, the orphans and those who were killed in Iraq."

The size 10s narrowly missed the leader of the free world, who ducked twice to avoid being nailed from about 12 feet away.

A chagrined Maliki, standing to Bush's left, tried to fend off the second shoe with his arm.

In Iraqi culture, shoe-tossing is considered a consummate insult. Iraqis famously celebrated the fall of Saddam Hussein by using their footwear to whack a toppled statue of the dictator as U.S. troops rolled into Baghdad.

Secret Service and Iraqi security officials promptly engulfed the shrieking assailant and hustled him from the ornate room.

He was later identified as Muntathar al-Zaidi, 29, a correspondent for Cairo-based Al-Baghdadia television.

Friends described him as having been upset by a U.S. bombing in Baghdad's Sadr City that he covered earlier in the year. They also said he had been kidnapped and held for three days last year by Shiite gunmen.

Bush was not hurt, but press secretary Dana Perino suffered an eye injury in the melee.
