In the Arabic world, in fact it's a HUGE insult. To be honest, I'm glad he didn't get hit... Sue me.
Sadly, this is the lesser effect of the clash of opinions.

Mr. Bush busted out some MASSIVE Mortal Kombat or Tekken moves there; his second duck was a wind up for his UPPERCUT! That's why all of his suits who swarmed around him kind of backed off and were like "FINISH HIM!"

Ok, to everyone who's been like "that's funny!" or "too bad he didn't get hit" listen up.
Do you realize how huge of an insult this is to Americans in general? Does ANYONE remember when we took down the statue of Saddam Hussein and the people threw shoes at the statue? Culturally, this is quite the message when used... And only used in extreme instances of hatred or disgrace.
This is an insult to our freedom and rights. Who cares if you don't like Bush? That shoe was not only aimed at our leader, but us and everything we as Americans stand of because we have the rights to stand for whatever it may be.
Go ahead and call me a party pooper, but we should really start to realize how much of an insult this is to us as individuals rather than laugh at it like this has no reflection on us.

And he said he just thought it was funny how quickly he dodged the shoe, he didnt know Bush had moves like that...lol :)

Because Bush travels on our behalf.
Look at it this way:
Let's say an Iraqi threw a shoe at an American. Just any American simply because of that person's nationality... Not because they did anything to wrong the Iraqi personally. This would indicate that the Iraqi is angry at Americans, rather than just the individual.
Kind of a crappy analogy, I know. And because Bush is our LEADER and main representative adds to the evidence bag regarding that man's aim at everyone else... Not literally of course, but the message conveyed it directed not only to the individual, but to the masses.
I do realize that Bush's personal actions do have a tie to this, but I am simply saying that it isn't only him this is aimed at.

Perhaps its simply a matter of digging deeper, or arrogance. It's not a fantasized insult... That would mean I would have wanted it to happen. It's simply my interpretation and me defending it.

No, no, no. Get your facts straight. Al Gore won the majority votes of America. That's called the popular vote. Bush won by electoral college vote which SUPPOSEDLY protects the smaller states (total bs) Technically Al Gore won but government had another say. You need to study up some more first....
