Only thing that stuck out about about the whole event was that the secret service didn't jump in the way of the shoe

No, they quite epicly failed. The guy managed to throw a shoe, reach down, take off his other shoe, and throw it before even a single agent started to react, and it was then that Bush waved him off. The Iraqi journalists by the guy responded a lot more quickly then the secret service.

Would you jump in front of a SHOE that was thrown at George Bush?
plus I don't think it was that lethal.

Well, it's considered an assault.. and if your job is to protect the man, then you have to, if it's only a shoe, why wouldn't you jump in front of it?

What if the shoe had a bomb or something in it? And your body blocked the president from getting severly damaged.

^Stop the spamming please.

This shoe-attack has an interesting side-effect:
BBC NEWS | Middle East | Bush 'shoe maker' hit by demand
This brand of shoe is now in high demand.
