My understanding is that it was an Iraqi press dude, right? What would have happened if it was in this country? Well never mind he would be a minority and we would feel sorry for him and he would get medical attention for his shoulder and suffering and so on and so on....

Whew, the longest I ever had to go without a shower was 9 days. Believe me my clothes could have stood up by themselves in a corner from all the funk on them..... I just plain stank to high heaven, but the best I could do was sacrifice some of my canteen water to try and brush my teeth......Being in the Infantry was one of the hardest times of my Military career, but I did like it in a weird sort of way........

Doubtful. You mess with a president here and you are pretty much screwed. I don't care who the pres is, try a stunt like that and you should expect to pay dearly. In Iraq, don't know. I do know that the shoe throwing thing is one of their biggest put downs.

I'm thinking that most places in America, that guy would have been on the floor with a gun to his head before he had time to throw the second shoe.

Yep.

YUCK! Can you imagine?

I spent 7 days in the hot Texas Sun on field exercises without a shower while in the Military and I'm here to tell ya, things smell funny in that hot sweaty environment. Toe Jam and fumundacheese for days.
