Fifteen years does seem a little harsh...

[oakranger]

Well, he shouldn't thrown the dam shoes at somebody that has such a high power, even though he deserve it. 

[AWwrgwy]

BS

Why would he have anything to fear in prison for what he did, from the other prisoners anyway.  They'll probably consider him a hero in there and throw him a party.

Might keep him from having kids as stupid as he is. That would be a plus.

Did anyone else notice how qickly Bush dodged the shoes though?

[Anaxogoras]

Despite my low opinion of Bush, assaulting a foreign head of state should be a serious crime.

All that mountain biking has given him cat-like reflexes.

[Shuffler]

My problem with Bush started and ended with his lack of handling on the border issues. At least he pardoned the 2 ex-border guards today.

he dodged a lot more than a shoe

like death ?

If he had done that while in the US.....?

If he hadn't been shot by the Secret Service the second he threw the first shoe, he would be doing serious federal prison time.  He'd be dropping more than his shoes.

Switzerland?  This clown wants to go to Switzerland now?

You mean punishable by death?  No, that would not fit the crime, and I am categorically against the death penalty.

[straffo]

I was ironic , 15 year is about 15 time more than the max I would see him sentenced.

[Shuffler]

I'm all for the death penalty. Not in this instance of course. I see housing killers and murderers kind of like building a house for your garbage.

If this was during Sudam times, he wouldn't be so lucky to get only 15...
