Arab dude throws a shoe. This is news why?

So, why is this still considered news?

Honestly, no one involved is still even talking about it.  Bush was fine, the dude got beat up and dragged away, what's the story here?

If it were me, though, I'd have that man killed.  The one who threw the shoe, not Bush.  But it's not because he threw the shoe.  As you may or may not be aware, I am a fervent supporter of all footwear related projectiles.  No, he should have been taken out and shot six times in the head for disrespecting a head of state.  There's a point where you just realize that the man you hate controls the largest, most well-trained and well-equipped army the world has ever seen, and enough nukes to turn every solid planet in our system to glass.  Maybe straight up throwing a shoe at him is a stupid idea.

And this really ruins it for journalists, the scum of the earth.  At least before this they only had to turn in their guns and other weapons of assassination before a press conference.  Now they won't even be allowed shoes.  Thanks a lot, Reporter McArab!

Journalists blow.  They never ask the interesting questions, and they always interpret the news before I get to it.  It's like ordering the special at a Chez McFrenchies, and the waiter chews the food before he brings it to you.  And then they never let it go.  They keep going over the same shit over and over, like it's going to change any time soon.

P.S.  Mexicans just aren't rantworthy anymore.  They make delicious food, what else is there to say?  If you really want a fresh rant, check out John and Ken on KFI.  They talk about them like 9 times a week.
