Ingrates!

Your daily schadenfreude: President Bush assaulted with shoes on surprise visit to Baghdad. Maybe it's just me, but I just can't understand what this gentleman could possibly be angry about.
Sorry - sarcasm doesn't look good on most people, but there are times when it is the only possible reaction to bury eight years of frustration.
UPDATE: someone else much funnier than I (on the Jezebel forums) has written that this is "one small shoe from man, one giant shoe from mankind."

Is it just the former English major in me, or is there a very nice resonance here with the "shoe" stuff in the movie "Wag the Dog"?

The most common response to it that I've seen is to quote Austin Powers - "Who throws a shoe?" Yours is much more classic and much more a propos, though.
