It won't be considered such by liberals who have attacked Bush from the beginning of his Presidence. Now of course, let's all be chums. The man who did this undoubtedly broke the laws of Iraq and one would wonder where the hell the Secret Service were during this outrage. The reporter should actually thank President Bush since if Saddam had been standing up there, his rear end would have been in a wood chipper by morning.

At any press conference by any U.S. official, all Muslim attendees must remove their shoes before entering. Since removing one's shoes before entering a house, room, or mosque is a sign of respect, then the effect is doubled.
