Bush Ducks Shoes In Iraq

Sunday, December 14th, 2008


FINALLY!  Someone had the nerve to do to Bush what many of us around the world have been wanting to do to him…at the very least.

President George W. Bush ducked two shoes thrown at him during a press conference in the Iraqi prime ministers office.  The conference was to mark the signing of a security agreement.  But for the man who threw his size 10 shoes at Bush, the conference had a totally different aim as you can see in the video below.  Feel free to play it over and over as many times as you like…lol.  

According to news reports, throwing shoes is a grave show of disrespect in the Arab Culture. Isn’t throwing shoes disrespectful in America too? Hey, maybe Bush is used to ducking shoes where he comes from. He has pretty good reflexes!

On a more serious note what you hear the shoe thrower shouting in Arabic is “This is the farewell kiss, you dog,”.  This is from the widows, the orphans and those who were killed in Iraq,”. 

Hmmm…I hope our new president is better received by the world than our current one.  Wait who am I kidding?

I AM…SASHA FIERCE

Tuesday, December 9th, 2008


p>Cover

Can’t be mad at the girl for trying something new.  Her new double personality/double cd album dropped on November 18th and seems to be getting mixed reviews.

Read the reviews and check out my favorite songs from the Beyonce side below…

“I Am…Sasha Fierce does offer two compelling sides of the singer. ” -Entertainment Weekly

“Though some of the slow songs have thoroughly memorable tunes, the lyrics are full of bland self-affirmation and saggy lines….But the “Sasha” disc boasts Beyonce’s most adventurous music yet.” -Rolling Stone

“Ironically, it’s the more tame (and nameless) persona that’s the most intriguing, commanding and sexual. “-Vibe

“It’s the classic, more timeless R&B songs on the I Am portion of the album that seem like a much-welcomed stretch for the singer.” -Billboard

“Unfortunately, the “deluxe edition” is bloated with filler, and the shorter “standard edition” omits some of the more creative songs instead of dropping the duds. “-NOW Magazine
