Poor ol' George -- he just get's no respect.
Good heavens, the man went to all the trouble and expense it took to liberate Iraq and give those poor benighted folks a free press and all, and how does he get repaid -- one of the press guys he went to all the trouble to free goes and throws his shoes at him.
No respect.
And it doesn't help a bit that from reports coming out of Mesopotamia and the adjacent region that Muntadhar al-Zeidi, the 28-year-old Iraqi shoe chucker, has become an instant hero to many of the folks living there.
No respect at all.
As for George, well, after 8 years of shaping foreign policy and dealing with people who don't live around here and speak English with a funny accent (New Yorkers don't count), past experience helped the increasingly lame duck president understand the situation. "I saw his sole," he told reporters.
