The Japanese media praises Bush for his ninja lightning reflexes for dodging the shoe of death. I was impressed too. But am more impressed with the Bush gifs going around the Internets which you can see at Dumpert via Boing Boing. News via Japan Probe.

the problem is that i hope in the future they don't pin bush as a "good" president. For all we know the people who liked him could be the ones who right the history books and make him look like a hero... We just have to hope that they see him for what he really was...
(ID #415415) Posted on 2008/12/17 14:09
Many things are clouded in hindsight and other things made clearer. We won't know the full effects of Bush's tenure good or bad until perhaps thirty or forty years later when we can look back at the effects of his actions. Things like the War on Terror or the Iraq War will have complex repercussions which may be supported or condemned when we have a chance to see later on.

regardless of his declining popularity, bear in mind that the americans voted this guy for a second term, even after the afghanistan and iraq invasion. so as much as most americans would see the comedic side of this, flash games notwithstanding, it's a direct insult to the american people and the democratic process that has voted him not once, but twice into office.

He should have thrown both of his shoes by using the first one as a red hering and the second one to hit him while Mr. Bush tries to dodge the first shoe. :)

I agree. Bush isn't a bad guy, it's his administration. And they couldn't do squat without Congress, hmm who was it who voted to go to war. The President cannot declare war. People should stop roasting the puppet.
(ID #415233) Posted on 2008/12/17 11:49
Exactly. That's one reason why during the races presidential runners tried to distance themselves by saying that they didn't vote for the war in Iraq. By doing that they sort of get that boost from the American people seeing as the war itself is seen very poorly.

Nobody thought it strange that the secret service didn't jump on the guy when he stood up out of turn? Or maybe after the first shoe? But yeah, they took their dear sweet time getting out there to tackle the guy. Which leads me to wonder whether they're getting lazy, or it was a staged incident for publicity. Whatever the case, I hope the service cracks down on security from now on. I suppose the good thing to come out of this incident is that we now know the answer to the age old hypothetical question: If you could choose from any of the past US presidents, which would you choose for your dodge ball team?

Other then his Ninja-like reflexes...I was surprised it took so long for the Secret Service to finally jump in. The Iraqi reporter in the front did their job that day. They lucked out the guy did not have anything else on him other then his shoes. The President should have bought him dinner or something for helping him with the shoe throwing guy.

Is it really sad that he's the president of my own country, and I didn't hear about these shoes being hurled at him until I read/watched it on Japanese News?
(ID #415450) Posted on 2008/12/17 14:32
Possibly. It's been plastered all over the news. I can't even walk into a Starbucks without hearing about it...

Now I want to see Prime minister Vladimir Putin Judo face off against Bush's ninjitsu! XD
(ID #415476) Posted on 2008/12/17 14:48
wow lots of people had a lot of shoe dodging ideas huh? LOL i've been seeing that vdo every ten seconds online and on tv and mockeries of it since it happened. Gotta give it to bush, his ninjutsu skills are nasty even if his presidency skills... not so much. *cough* but that's not my opinion ask the american ppl. LOL

Meh... this wasn't that funny. Shoes? C'mon! He should've thrown a dictionary at him, now that would've been hilarious!

If he was going to try to hurt Bush, he could have tried a camera or something which was heavier...Alas, he resorted to shoes...

the sole of a shoe = the dirtiest thing/the most insulting thing to throw at in Iraq. Might as well take off your glove and slap them, eh?
(ID #415564) Posted on 2008/12/17 16:16
rou you could have taken of your glove, put your camera in it and slap bush with it

>The Japanese media praises Bush for his ninja lightning reflexes for dodging the shoe of death Yeah, that was hilarious, I think even for Bush himself, he seems so amused. I think the guy chose the wrong way to try and insult Bush. I mean throwing one's shoes doesn't mean really anything in the western culture. And dogs are rather loved here too.

Yeah I agree with you Harts about the shoe thing, I mean this totally backfired on his ass. Not only did he not hit Bush but he ended up making him popular throughout the world for his Ninja abilities. The only good that came of this is that now we all know of Bush's secret ninjitsu techniques, we must all be vigilante for he may creep up on us anytime.

Since Bush planning enter the election for the first time, he know someone eventualy will try to murder/hurt him, so he set all of his skill point into 99 AGI and 99 DEX. With another addintional from equippment and cards, he will gain 75% perfect dodge. WTH I'm talking about.... XD
(ID #415636) Posted on 2008/12/17 17:24
The shoe throwing guy is now a hero in the arab world and i think he is hero indeed and it doesn't matter which culture we're talking about getting a shoe thrown at you doesn't mean that the person who did it likes you that much now does it
(ID #415644) Posted on 2008/12/17 17:45
Yeah, his dodging skills are pretty impressive. Nice reflexes, although the guy had really bad aim. I mean, you could see the journalist wind up pretty obviously, so Bush knew to dodge. If he really wanted to hit someone, the journalist should have gone for the body shot x 2 instead of a headshot.
(ID #415633) Posted on 2008/12/17 17:21
or, body shot and then head shot while he was dazed lol. I am a fan of this video but I think the shoe attacker could have stepped his game up a little... Shoes just seem kinda novice.
(ID #415658) Posted on 2008/12/17 18:25
jeez, you know what, usually, at the first wrong move in the audience, hundreds of bodyguards are supposed to jump on the president to cover him here, George Bush was able to make his speech, analyze the scene, watch every single move of every person in the room, and dodge the shoe He has waited 8 years of presidency to hide his secret George is a TRUE SHINOBI and deserves respect !!!! I was really impressed is he mastering his mega flow of chakra or is he an innovator ? does he have Trans-AM inside ??? or is he.... a JEDI ????

It's amazing how society has the liberal minds of Generation Y completely brainwashed to the point where everyone under 30 hates George Bush but can't tell you the reason without looking up what others say about it online. I'm convinced the Democrats made use of this in getting Obama elected.

I lolled, It might have more to do with mistakes that the man made then brainwashing by liberals... P.s. I shat bricks when I noticed the link to dumpert, the Dutch video dump of shocklog geenstijl.

Obama do use the internet & the media to his advantage to succeed in his election.

So did Mcain. Look American politicians have always been the most silly one to begin with. I was actually somewhat impressed that Obama threw less dirt at the republicans then the republicans did at him.
(ID #415921) Posted on 2008/12/17 23:25
Any politician would be rather silly if they didn't use whatever means available to try and gain an advantage in an election race.
(ID #416006) Posted on 2008/12/18 01:06
a lot of people over 30 don't like George either, and I don't think brainwashing had anything to do with it. If the under 30's need to look up other's points of view online then perhaps that's a good thing. Perhaps then they can gather enough information to really form their own opinion, as you certainly don't get any diversity in opinion from the mainstream media. Me, I think the man is a dill - but I don't hate him - I just hate what he and his cronies stand for. I hope Obama does a better job (it won't be hard to do that), but time will tell...

I first saw a animated GIF of the incident on Playstation forums and I thought I happened a long time ago >_>; I have to admit, it is good reflexes upon seeing a projectile being aimed at. If it was me in the course the of the shoe, I'd probably be kissing the sole of the bloke and then he'll be dead by choking on his own shoe. Shame that he didn't throw more nasty stuff like babooms droppings. lol

Bush, obama, doesnt matter. There all politicians and all have skeletons in the closet. Im not knocking Obama, but he does come from Chicago which Illinois right now is in a spiral downward with all the shady politicians. The most corrupt state by far.

By the way, by comparison are the Japanese youth or older at all involved in serious political actions similar to that of American youth?
