dude
I hate GW tho i am proud that he dodged it,it would have been better if it actually hit him
except
in their country it is a huge dishonor to throw shoes at someone
in arabic culture, showing the bottom of the shoe, throwing the shoe, or slapping with a shoe is the biggest insult; the shoe is seen as unclean.
footage of before united states forces tore down saddam hussein's statue in baghdad show iraqi citizens hitting the statue with their shoes, in insult, of course
