Finally, someone in the press corps grows a pair, and size 10s, too. Too bad he wasn’t one of ours. But they’re all too busy blowing kisses at Oprah to throw shoes at The Decider.
Could the Mystery Man have been a Zappatista? It’s not known for certain; it all happened too quickly for me to see whether those unidentified flying zapatos were brown shoes (they didn’t make it, which may be a clue) or a pair of too-tight, stink-foot python boots.
Then again, he could’ve been a Firesign Theatre fan: “Shoes for Industry! Shoes for the Dead!” Just another returning deceased war veteran hungry for that good-paying job, more sugar, and the free mule he’d been dreaming of. Too bad everything he knew was wrong.

Dude, just watched the video of Dubya Dodging. Thanks for posting the link. On the one hand, the guy’s an ass who deserves the insult. On the other hand, although he’s an embarrassment, he is the representative of our country. And I don’t like being insulted like that. Its kinda like the token junior on my old team. He was kinda skinny, even by bike racer standards, and tended to get leaned on by people on group rides. And our team enforcer was always right there, with “Hey, you can’t get on our teammate like that! Only we (his teammates) can!”.
