I’m not breaking any new ground when I say that shoe-tossing incident in Iraq reminds me of the scene in the first Austin Powers film when Random Task throws a shoe (a la Odd Job and the razor-brimmed hat in Bond) at Powers. “Who throws a shoe?. Honestly.” Anyway, I saw this game on Rob Tornoe’s blog and had to pass it along. It seems pretty simple: Grab a shoe and toss.
I know that there are many Democrats out there who have been waiting for just this chance. Go for it.
