I'll give credit where it's due for George Bush - he is good at something

[LynneSin]

Damn good reflexes - he was able to duck in time when those shoes came flying. Perhaps his skills come from Mrs. Bush tossing a few objects at him in their lifetime together.

1. Nimble little Nazi, isn't he?

If the journalist had flung the second shoe a split second earlier, it would have caught Chimpolini as his punkinhead came bouncing back from dodging the first one, however. When someone is flinging shoes, normal instincts and reflexes don't tell their owner to stick their head back up in the line of fire so quickly.

practice ducking the issues.

3. Ever seen a bar fight? You get pretty good at ducking in one of those - and he's spent ALOT of time

in saloons, taverns, sports bars and such. Probably will start hanging out in such joints once again once he gets back to Texas, so this is, like, preemptive practice for a return to his first true love, professional boozing.

4. He's good at dodging

drafts, questions, and shoes.
