I still hate Bush, but credit where it’s due: that was a good dodge.
Complete genius at dodging shoes.
I’d never pick him to lead, but you can be damn sure I’d pick him for my dodgeball team!
If you can dodge a shoe, you can dodge a ball.
You can tell he has mastered the art. It’s unfortunate he took so many wrenches to the head to get to this level.
Fully agree, terrible president but that guy could -ing dodge!

(Actual photo context: Iraqi journalist, Muntadhar al-Zaidi, threw his shoe in a sign of extreme disrespect at George yelling “this is a farewell kiss from the Iraqi people, dog.”

The greeting as a liberator bit is a callback to Dick Cheney’s infamous “my belief is we will, in fact, be greeted as liberators.”)
Real talk: I’m still kinda pissed he was able to dodge them both.
He’s a better dancer than he’s given credit
Throwing the shoe at someone is the most disrespectful and humiliating thing a man can do to another man in Iraq (and the middle east in general). Bush didn’t understand this, so it was kind of useless, but satisfying for the journalist who also didn’t know that Bush didn’t know. Lol
And he Qasim never heard from again
Cultural differences
Granted, but now his foot’s cold
Ha, hadn’t seen this mashup before but I love it!
I think between the Simpsons, and Futurama, we could develop a meme/references based language 😂
