I can totally see your point. I guess I thought my friend was just offended not at what Bush did in reaction, but to what the Iraqi did - by throwing his shoe. which is offensive of course, and maybe wrong, but in my mind justified. I can totally understand why he did it. I didn't actually laugh when I heard this story today, but I didn't feel bad for Bush either. I don't know if that makes me bad, or evil - but you're right - Bush is insensitive and clueless. it's sad.
