BAGHDAD: U.S. President George W. Bush had two shoes thrown at him Sunday during a news conference in the Iraqi prime minister's office in Baghdad.

The man ' Muntazer al-Zaidi ' who threw the shoes, a journalist, shouted an Arabic phrase, which reportedly translated as, "This is a farewell kiss, dog," media reported Sunday.

Bush ducked and narrowly missed being struck by the first shoe, and the man threw a second shoe, which also came close to hitting the president.

"All I can report is it is a size 10," Bush said jokingly.
