big W caught in shoe attack in Iraq on 15 Dec 08 - 'Shoe size 10'

Angry Iraqi jurno throws shoes at Bush in Baghdad Sunday 14 December...

US President George W Bush had had a pair of shoes hailed at him during his farewell visit to Baghdad Iraq. Few weeks before he hand down the unpopular Iraqi war to President-Elect Barack Obama in the us election, Bush declared that while great strides have been taken toward peace, "iraq the war is not over". In a sign of lingering anger over the war that will define the Republican president's foreign policy legacy, and an Iraqi journalist shouted "this is a goodbye kiss from the Iraqi people, dog," and hailed his shoes at Bush during a news conference with Prime Minister of Iraq Nuri al-Maliki. Throwing shoes at somebody is a supreme insult in the Middle Eastern Countires. One of the shoes sailed over the president's head and slammed into the wall behind him and he had to duck to miss the other one. Maliki tried to block the second shoe with his arm. "It's like going to a political rally and have people yell at you. It's a way for people to draw attention," Bush said. "I don't know what the guy's cause was. I didn't feel the least bit threatened by it." The journalist was leapt on by Iraqi security officials and US secret service agents and dragged from the room while screaming and struggling. Bush's fleeting visit to Baghdad was aimed at marking the recent passage of a U.S.-Iraq security pact that paves the way for U.S. troops to pull out of Iraq by July 2009 and withdraw completely by the end of year 2011...
