Shoes On The Other Feet?

   So, by now you have no doubt seen or heard about the pair of size 10 shoes hurled at President Bush as he was addressing a room full of journalists while in Iraq. You have probably seen our own liberal media types such as Michael Ware, Jack Cafferty, and Rick Sanchez trying to “report” this incident without showing their own personal glee at the images of the President of the United States of America being assaulted in a war zone by an Arab Muslim journalist “dissing” the leader of this great country.

   While our own unprofessional and personally biased journalists are having a great deal of fun with this image and already calling the arrest of this Arab thug a violation of his “civil rights”, we should be asking a few questions of our own journalists. For example, if the purpose of journalists is to obtain facts and provide a factual report of events as they unfold in an unbiased manner, then how is what this thug did right? Journalists are not supposed to be the story and they are expected to treat people with at least a modicum of objective professionalism, if not respect. Regardless of the unethical behavior of the Ware’s, Cafferty’s, and Sanchez’s from an obviously biased profession of anti-American values and traditions, every American should be angered at the sight of an Arab Islamic thug being so rude to our President.

   Does anyone remember the not to distant past when an American soldier in Iraq used a Quran, the Islamic holy book, for target practice? President Bush personally apologized to the Iraqi Prime Minister and a top U.S. General personally kowtowed, kissed a Quran, and begged the forgiveness of an assortment of Islamic thugs. Here we have a Muslim Arab male doing the most disrespectful thing he could possibly do, at least in the backwoods area known as the Middle East, to the representative of the greatest nation on the face of the planet.

   And what is the reaction of the Muslim world? Once again thousands of Muslims in Iraq, and other Muslim countries, are protesting this Arab thug’s arrest, and once again our seditious and complicit MSM appear to be urging the same! Note the man was arrested for throwing his shoes while the Iraqi PM was standing next to President Bush, not for his assaulting President Bush. Nor, have I heard or read of any apology forthcoming from the Muslim world’s governments. Apparently this Muslim thug and supposed journalist is yet another “hero” to the Muslim world but why is no Muslim government condemning this behavior? But hey, how can we ask even that much of the Muslim countries when even our own journalists refuse to condemn this action?

   Now let’s just imagine that the shoes were on the other feet. What would the U.S. Government’s reaction have been if, oh say, a U.S. journalist or cameramen had thrown both his shoes at ANY Muslim government official during a news release? How many Muslims around the world would have rioted, plundered, raped, and murdered, regardless of the profuse apologies that we all know would have been offered by almost every level of the U.S. Government? And what would the reaction of our MSM “professionals” have been to that incident?

   That’s a rhetorical question by the way as I don’t believe there is any real doubt but that it would have been, at least in the eyes of the American MSM, President Bush’s fault as well. I just wish Ware would get his nose fixed, Sanchez would go live in Argentina and Cafferty would retire. I know its just a fantasy, but I can’t help myself.
