The Shoe Man vs. the Most Powerful Man in the World
In the end, we are all humans, and the American ideal rests on one thing: Equality. There is no real status that can elevate one of us above another. So when one of us fails miserably and smugly does his own cheerleader dance for an audience he specifically ruined, he deserves to be called on it.
Dumbass, Pope Benedict, Steven Hawking, Spider Benson, Barack Obama, my son are all people. These happen to be males. This might be a guy thing, but women are encouraged to read on. Chivalry has been pretty ...'subtle' in society, but many of us on the M side still try to adhere to it.
It's true that someone close to Dumbya should have smacked him a long time ago. But they didn't, wouldn't. It's appalling that a leader should be allowed to get into a situation where some ordinary guy is throwing a shoe at the President of the United States. I too have an axe to grind: He kept us so busy reeling from his mistakes, lies and wholesale larceny of public assets and treasure that we all seem to have run out of RAM for his fumble of North Korea.
Oh yeah, I'm certain of it. He said, "We're going to topple the regimes of Iran, North Korea and Iraq, because they're evil," and then dropped it while Kimmy-poo turned North Korea nuclear. The guy who enabled it is comfortably ensconced in Pakistan, whose help we valued over all else because Bush's only real priority was rewriting the deeds on the oil market.
Now he's retired, with security and healthcare for life, since as a public servant he chose to decry public support of health. None of the rubes who bought his line of crap should be excused from the ire expressed by the Iraqi with the shoes. They all deserve this bitch slap, especially because the CEO president, the hands-off manager himself is parachuting to economic safety while they scramble to anticipate ways his disastrous stewardship will bring pain to their families.
