3. Sorry, but that video made Bush look great
Edited on Mon Dec-15-08 12:44 AM by Truthiness Inspector
The last time I saw moves like that it was that attorney dodging and weaving behind a tree while his client was shooting at him point blank, and escaped unharmed. (I'll try to dig up the vid of that and post it)

Great reflexes, and I'm sorry but the comment about the size 10 shoe cracked me up.

On edit, the video I mentioned: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uf3Flbx889Q

6. I still think that's how his dad got his attention while he was growing up.
He's a natural dodger.

8. Well, the reporter telegraphed the throw
I'm sure Bush has had more than one bottle pitched at his noggin, either in a frat house or a bar. When he knew something was coming, it was second nature for him to duck. He's had lots of practice at ducking.

12. He dodged the draft so adroitly...
...is it any wonder he could dodge a mere flying shoe or two?
