Understatement of the year. And it's not just that part of the world either.

It doesn't matter that I don't like Bush. There's a symbolism that comes with that office. Now, I'm not saying that the guy should have been shot (I'm too much of a pacifist to call for something like that), but it wouldn't have surprised me if he had. It does concern me that the guy got the second shoe off and that through the whole thing Bush remained standing at the podium unprotected.

Really, what did people think was going to happen? There was more security at my high school when he came to visit as a governor (although this was right around when he announced his run for Presidency).

We were locked down and not allowed to leave our classrooms, yet the PRESIDENT walks almost nekkid into hostile territory...

I think they ought to bring the "shoe thrower" to the U.S. and let him have a go at Barney Frank and Chris Dodd.

That really surprises me. As soon as that guy began to move forward in an aggressive fashion the SS should have been all over him. It took way too long for the SS too react. I am truly surprised at that seeing as how good they typically are.

I mean that could have just been a diversion for a more serious attempt from another part of the room. They should have gotten him completely out of there. They never even got in front of him once they entered from the other room.

I'm sure there's gonna be some meetings on that one within the SS. Not to overreact here, but that is a little concerning.
