It’s been fairly a quiet weekend in sneaker news (Jeff Staple and Hiroshi must be playing Candy Land somewhere) but the talk of the sole nation is President Bush dodging shoes thrown by an Iraqi journalist that whizzed by his chock-full-of-knowledge dome at a news conference earlier today.

We must say Dubya possessed cat-like reflexes by ducking as the man flung his Florsheim’s footwear at him totally avoiding the TKO by leather shoe. It was reported the disgruntled journalist yelled, “ This is a farewell kiss, you dog!” as the shoes skimmed over our President’s head. After the life-threatening incident President Bush shrugged the attack off saying “So what if I guy threw his shoe at me?” and also joked, “It was a size 10.” The man ended up being wrestled down by other people in the room, and Bush came out unscratched, signifying the first real win he’s had over an Iraqi person, ever.
