Can you out-shoe al-Zaidi?
http://videogames.yahoo.com/feature/-quot-sock-and-awe-quot-pits-players-against-president/1274922Shoe-wielding Iraqi journalist Muntadar al-Zaidi, who was catapulted to international prominence after throwing his shoes at President Bush during a press conference in Iraq, is now the star of the latest in viral Web games.
"Sock and Awe" -- named after the military doctrine employed in the US operation to remove Saddam Hussein from power in Iraq -- allows players to throw shoes at a figure of President Bush, as he ducks behind a podium....
At the time of writing, the virtual President Bush has been struck in the face by 21 million shoes, the site indicates.
Sock and Awe also shows visitors a league table of "Bush-shoeing countries" -- and although the United States is number one, the top five also includes France, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates.http://www.sockandawe.comThe UAE? Hmmm... anyone heard from JCMach1 lately?
