Iraqi Journalist Hurls Shoes At Bush… Shouted: "This Is A Goodbye Kiss, You Dog"...
Politico reports that White House Press Secretary Dana Perinso may have suffered a black eye in the wake of the shoe-throwing incident:
White House Press Secretary Dana Perino was slightly bruised in the aftermath of the shoe-throwing melee at President Bush's news conference in Baghdad on Sunday, a senior administration official said.
But Perino will be fine and is continuing with the presidential party, the official said.
Journalists at the scene said she suffered a black eye, perhaps when she was hit with a microphone.
It's ironic that the president would be pummeled in such a controlled setting, when the White House took elaborate, James-Bond-like precautions to ensure he landed in secret. READ
