Real talk, some of the Pres. Bush haters on NT only detest the man because it's the "thing" to do. Sheep for the fricking loss.
You're crazy man. It's perfectly fine to not respect the leader of your country. Hell, it's patriotic even. You should always question authority unless you would rather give this man your respect simply because he's in charge. Now, that's kinda sheepish.
List of presidents I dont like:
Bill Clinton
Jimmy Carter
Barack Obama (soon enough)
List of presidents I have disagreed with recently:
George Bush
George Bush
List of Presidents I want to see hit in the face with a shoe:
None

It is not fine to disrespect the leader of your country. The President almost without exception deserves our respect. It is fine to have disagreements with him. It is fine to dislike him. It is fine to protest against him. It is fine to question him. It is fine to try and impeach him. The only time when it is fine not to respect a President is when he has made an utter disgrace of himself, and dishonored and misled our country.
so, by your own definition we should be pretty much open to disrespecting him.

[X] disgrace of himself
[X] dishonored country
[X] Misled country

yup, we're good.

If, in youre opinion, Pres. Bush has made a disgrace of himself (I do not believe he has. He has made the hard decisions and stuck to his principles despitefurious opposition), dishonored our country (once again I do not think he has done this), Misled country (then you have to blame 95% of Congress as well) thenfeel free to say what you will.
Remember that Pres. Lincoln was one of the most unpopular and most widely hated Presidents ever in his own time. History has smiled brightly upon him. I feelthat Pres. Bush's legacy will be similar.
 
Yo bush could be a damn boxer the way he weaved that s**t i dont know about his jab or his hook but damn he weaved that like a moth*r@#!%$! had a smile on hisface too

Please, don't ever compare Bush and Lincoln again. It's an insult to Lincoln's legacy. Bush will be lucky to have 2 pages in an American HistoryText book in 200 years let alone monuments and currency in his likeness.
 
Throwing shoes in those areas is a gesture of disrespect, real talk.

But

"so what if I got a shoe thrown at meh"

I will never understand anyone that thinks Bush "sticking to his principals" is a positive. "Congrats on sticking to your terriblyflawed ideas. Even after being proven to be wrong about soooooo many things, you have not apologized for any of your missteps or failures. You sir, are awonderful president. Most presidents would feel bad about lying to the American people."

Legacy?

He is leaving office as a disgrace to America due to...

Economy in a recession
400 Billion deficit
2 wars he started but couldn't finish
Failed to capture Osama?

Bush is going down as one of the worst Presidents in American History. He was such a disgrace that the Republicans didn't even want him to campaign forMcCain so yah what a grand legacy Bush will have.

I hope you're kidding. The same goes for the rest of you who madethe comments about the secret service not doing their jobs or whatever.

This was a media session. Everyone who participated was thoroughly checked for weapons that kill or things that harm people before they were allowed into theroom. They're not going to prevent people from wearing shoes.

After the people that are in a closed area with the President are checked for weapons or whatever, the secret service are not exactly on the highest of alerts,expecting someone to pull out a gun and aim it towards Dubya as if they were in an open area with hundreds of people around.
