The Shoe, the Iraqi, the Heroism

Posted by Benjamin On December - 29 - 2008

I wonder if history will remember the Iraqi who threw his shoe at George Bush?  If it does, will the text book editors have the event immortalized with a short text blip or a photo?  Either way, I read someones thoughts on the matter and they felt the Iraqi’s shoe throwing deed heroic.  To be honest, I thought it displayed what happens to someones throwing arm when they grow up not playing baseball.   Regardless, I thought the comment dumb.  Heroic, my butt, where were his shoes when Saddam was in power?
