Journalist throws shoes at Bush

[Professor S]

Having thrown a pie before, I can assure you that while it would have been far more affective and hard to punish (how do you jail a pie thrower?), it never would have made it. Simple physics of pie aerodynamics, and that banana cream has a large surface area and low density so it can be manipulated by cross-winds quite easily. It would have ended up on the back of the head of some poor Iraqi reporter, and if the poor son of a bitch was Suni we would have had a jihad on our hands.

Thats how a good pie goes bad...
