I'm surprised his feet didn't get crushed when the secret service eventually mobbed him. It must have been like being in a mosh pit shoeless. Ow.

I didn't think he'd get thrown in jail, is there a law in Iraq about throwing shoes?

The journalist in question had already been kidnapped before this incident.

Same thing that went through my head.

Please tell me how it's creepy. Seriously. I don't get it. What is NOT amusing about a guy trying to hit you with his shoes? I can tell you what was going through his head.

"Woah. haha! Didn't expect that. Whoah another one! haha. Damn that was close."

OOOOEEEEEYOOOO! yeah. So creepy.

Haha! Yeah dude! I kind of found a glitch though. I held the mouse button and dragged right and it made Bush lean far over. True story. No shoe was hitting him! I went and made a sandwich with salami, cheese, lettuce and horse radish. When I came back to the computer he still hadn't been hit. So I started playing again. ;p

The one before that I was playing for real though. So I still beat you.

Iraqi judge says shoe-tossing reporter was beaten

BAGHDAD – The Iraqi journalist who threw his shoes at President George W. Bush during a news conference was beaten and had bruises around his eyes and other parts of his face, a judge said Friday.

Judge Dhia al-Kinani, the magistrate investigating the incident, said the court has opened a probe into the alleged beating of journalist Muntadhar al-Zeidi during the news conference.

Al-Zeidi was wrestled to the ground after throwing his shoes at Bush Sunday as he stood beside Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki at the news conference in Baghdad, and there have been conflicting claims about his condition since then.

The journalist has not been seen in public since his arrest. One of his brothers claimed he had been harshly beaten but another said he seemed to be in good condition.

Al-Zeidi "was beaten in the news conference and we will watch the tape and write an official letter asking for the names of those who assaulted him," the judge told The Associated Press.
