If the shoes don't fit, throw them at Dubya


Trust Jessica Zafra to notice another grammatical hiccup by the US thanks-be-to-god-he-is-on-his-way-out President Bush.

Dec. 14 (Bloomberg) — President George W. Bush ducked two shoes thrown at him by a man during a press conference in the Iraqi prime minister’s office to mark the signing of a security agreement.
Bush wasn’t hit by the shoes, which both sailed over his head after they were thrown one after the other. The president shrugged and said “I’m OK” after the incident in Baghdad today. “All I can report is it is a size 10,” Bush said afterwards.
Dubya, you’re talking about two shoes, plural, so “All I can report is that the shoes are size 10″ or “…the pair is size 10.”

I think Dubya was referring to his brain. It is size 10.

Maybe the other shoe was not size 10.
