I'm sending a shoe to the White House, myself. A perfect ending gesture (not farewell) to the Worst. President. Ever.
UPDATE: Go here to sign a petition supporting the release of Mr. Al Zaidi.
UPDATE II: Send shoes to:
The White House,
1600 Pennsylvania Ave NW
Washington, DC 20500
and to:
George W. Bush Presidential Library
c/o SMU
6425 Boaz Lane
Dallas TX 75205
Reportedly, al Zaidi was beaten badly after he was removed from the pressroom. Please, if you can, send shoes in solidarity.

Found you through Mock Paper Scissors. Great idea!
And: I love your blog.
Thank you, Border Explorer!
I too am here via Tengrain and like BE, I could not agree more!
And I am going to make it a very dirty, old shoe at that.

I had thought that holding a shoe in the air would be a great at demonstrations. One of those few things that the Preznits SS wouldn't take from you as you enter a place where he is scheduled to mangle the English language.
"Bare your sole for Bush!"

WOW! Thank you fellow Scissorheads!
Laura, please find out more from the person who gave you "reported, he was beaten badly".
Go to Raed's website, Rowan: he reports that his contacts in Baghdad told him this.
Excellent post Laura!
