== 12 things to throw at Bush = By Mark Morford
A shoe? Not bad. But surely we can do better

http://sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/g/a/2008/12/17/notes121708.DTL&nl=fix

---------------------------

A shoe is an honest choice. Civilized. Convenient. Sends a simple "you're an artless jackass, and everyone knows it" kind of message. What's more, a hurled shoe is a timeless bit of wisecrackery, sort of like a pie in the face or standing up and hurling your drink at your two-faced lover in a restaurant. Classic.

But this is Dubya we're talking about. Worst. President. Ever. Surely he deserves better. Surely he deserves something a bit more ... thoughtful? Profound? Ironic? After all, while a shoe is nice, it's also terribly cliched. Boring, even.

Of course, I officially endorse none of the following far more appropriate, delightfully hurl-able options. Do not ever throw anything at President Bush, because you could get shot or perhaps go to jail for a very long time, which, despite how you'd be hailed a hero worldwide forevermore, would just be no fun at all. Don't do it. Throwing is wrong. OK? ...

4. Their shoes is our tomatos
with a big assed dose of a screw you one finger salute thrown in for good measure. This is what will be remembered about bush above all except of course the evil. The fact that he feels no remorse for what hes done puts him at the top of the list of sorry SOB's to most everyone in the world, I suspect.

5. Actually I think its more like throwing a turd at a person than it is a tomato
In a country where open-air sewers are the norm and the walks are littered with human waste a shoe is not the same thing as a ballerina's slipper.

3. Throw something at him?
If we just had a chance, it would get ugly, real fast.

I say we either just forget him, or we throw the book at him.

Put him away for life, one way or the other.
