Shoes? How pathetic. I personally liked the way the Communist Party of Skt. Petersburg and Leningrad Oblast have greeted the Obama victory & McCain defeat.
Okay, you’ve adjusted your contention to refer not to Lobahan’s cite, but rather a cite his cite cites.
And you are contending while the US military “instigated the toppling” and “sought to get as much out of it as they could (having the kids climb on the vehicle)” that it can in no way be view as being “staged”.

I disagree.
I don’t care enough about the point to pursue it further myself, and I’m sure it was elaborately discussed at the time, but thank you for your response.
I hate the man but he did show some good moves. It would have been great if he had caught the second shoe and nailed the thrower between the eyes with it.
The cite I provided was the basis for his cite and his subsequent contortion of the actual events. This desire to every fucking thing that transpired in Iraq and insist it be viewed in the worst possible terms is as childish as it is tiring. Some people need new schtick. And that was three or four years ago.
My guess- if Michelle was with him she’d have capped him with 2 slugs from a pearl handled .32 before he ever got the second shot off. If she wasn’t there, Barack would have tossed a knife straight into the man’s sternum.
In fairness, Dick Cheney would have nailed him with force lightning before the first shoe even got to the podium.
