If you had been kidnapped and tortured by unknowns while covering the Iraq debacle...

[uppityperson]

how difficult would it be to restrain yourself to throwing shoes or flipping the bird to mrbush?

1. Who needs kidnap and torture for a reason?

Hell, I can think of scores of other valid reasons.

2. You don't need it for a reason, but Muntadar al-Zeidi had been kidnapped/tortured as a journalist

covering the iraq debacle. I think he has lots of reasons.

3. I think any Iraqi has lots of reasons..

for giving Bush the shoe.

4. Shoes? Bird flips? I am a' fuck you double' '2 of your eyes for one of mine' kinda guy.

Kidnap and torture would result in acts too unspeakable to mention here.

5. Yup. I admire his restraint.
