President Bush finally gets the message from Iraq.

Hehe....he was pretty good at dodging the shoes. Maybe he's used of getting things thrown at him by now.
 
As he was standing at the podium, am I wrong or did I see a SMIRK on his face as the shoes were thrown? Seemed to me he was kinda laughing in the guys face. And with that SMIRK, perhaps there was no surprise of the incident, almost like it was expected? Sure makes me wonder.

Hmm.. I am guessing that he is practicing a lot. His reflexes were excellent, and his body was perfectly balanced etc. :lol: Who knows, maybe Dodging could become the elite's sport of the future... You do burn more calories that golf for sure! :D

I've noticed that the guy seems to make light of serious situations (by design or just by his nature), as seen here for example : _http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FD7BDP3XMG0&feature=related, and here: _http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L0mkXLwZbI4&feature=related

I can only speak from my own experience but to me it always seemed like there are certain times when psychopaths just can't hide their glee when they see people are outrageous because of something they have done.

If you imply that the whole event might be staged, I wouldn't agree with you, though I'm not sure if you meant that. But I also noticed the smirk that he had in that segment.

edit: So, I watched the segment in YouTube again just to be sure and the quality wasn't good enough for me to tell whether he was actually smiling or not. However, something in his body language perhaps gave me just the same impression as it gave you, so in effect we are not wrong (I think).

The same thoughts crossed my mind...

I find the whole thing funny, tragic and horrifying in equal measure! :lol: :scared:

Perhaps psychopaths have greater than average reflexes? There was something about the way he reacted I found unnerving!?

I tend to agree, I think its a control thing (haha I got you angry, you can't do anything about it!). He'd probably smirk if someone was about to shoot him.
I remember watching his speeches encouraging the U.S. economic bailout, he smirks the whole way through those!

Yep, I do wonder as it seems anything is possible. And I do agree with your comment about receiving joy from some else's anger. Methinks he's just having too much fun in the "last" days.

I also swear I saw him smiling right before the guy throws the shoe.

Most likely because he couldn't care less and even gets off on it too.
What else would one expect from someone with no conscience?

Yup! It's called hubris. And we all know what happens to people who project it... :evil:

On a more serious note, the inaptly-named Nour al Malaki must now find himself caught between a rock and a hard place - he can't just let al-Zaidi go, otherwise he might just be seen as condoning what I suspect might become a new hobby for the Iraqi people - i.e throwing shoes at members of the pro-American Iraqi government. I doubt he could allow this to happen.

On the other hand, too much influential support has materialised for al-Zaidi - too many people are going to want to know what happens to him; people who are in positions to make a fuss. If Malaki makes the wrong move here, it could possibly trigger such an adverse reaction against his government (which is not a popular one, by some accounts in the ME) that it could bring about his downfall. I doubt he would allow this to happen.

All in all, I'm glad I'm not in Malaki's shoes as he has to decide what to do with Zaidi.

(Sorry, pun intended - just couldn't resist - hahaha hehehe snurfsnurfsnurf)

It is possible that it was staged. There is coverage of it all over the MSM and other news sites.

With pathocrats :evil: misinformation rules the day
 
I too feel Bush was "Smirking"...which from my perspective is something he usually does. It's become his trademark! To the Psychopath, Nothing is serious, Everything is a Joke. Let the Fun and Games begin. Iraq is just a playground. Iran is just a playground. Georgia is just a playground. Afghanistan is just a playground. Hell, the WORLD is just a playground. Killing and Torture doesn't mean anything does it?? People are just play pawns in my toy box.

That's Bush's Attitude.

Whenever I see him casually talk or give speeches, I get the feeling of a Junior High kid who can barely contain himself from busting out loud laughing over the most recent prank he has pulled. He often has that "wise guy" look on his face of...'I just pulled a "fast one" and got away with it (snicker)...I secretly legislated away over the weekend more of your stupid constitutional rights and increased my Personal Power as a Dictator-President. Whataya gonna do 'bout it Huh'? (more Sinister Snickering).

I was in a book store a while back and casually flipping through a biography about Bush ( I don't remember the author or the book title, sorry) where the author sited how childish Bush behaved sometimes and gave as an example how he would lock out Carl Rove from rooms where important meetings were to be conducted. Bush would laugh hilariously thinking it was the funniest thing, as Rove was pounding on the door pleading to be let in. If I recall, it had something to do with Rove being maybe a little late and Bush would just lock him out and Laugh. Maybe someone on the site has read this book and knows the passage I'm trying to recall?

So Bush is a PSYCHOPATHIC BAFFOON. I think that's an established fact by now.
