My pick would be the McCain supporter that mutilated herself in order to blame African American Obama supporters; accusing them of mugging her, by carving a backwards B on her cheeks. OUCH! Potential Darwin Award material in the making

magicfly, why perpetuate a bad news story. They found no bullets in the seals.

So they say...I don't buy it.

Ok Columbo.

Most awkward?

The time that Bush said ___________ .

Now this is a little awkward to say the least. Guilt by association..?

Joe Biden interview "FDR was on TV during the 1929 Stock Market Crash"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Jf17Yo7hBM

When a foreigner tries to clock your president with shoes and you don't know whether to laugh or feel ambivelent.

I say when you voted in Obama . would be the most awkward!

Ambivalence? Anyone felt ambilalence? Not I. I thought it was funny as hell. I'm not a computer gamer, but still I tried both of the online shoe-throwing-at-Bush games that appeared on the internet within a day or so of the event.

Sg

No ambivalence here, either...I was impressed on many levels.

First, Bush scuttled around back there pretty good...hasn't dodged that fast since the Vietnam War.

Second, the Iraqi Prez jumped to his defense, which was admirable.

Third, it was ballzy as hell for that dude to throw the shoes.

Fourth, it showed a total ignorance of Arab society...as per the usual...when Bush said it was "just a guy throwing shoes"...

Fish on...

Todd

Thank god none of those shoe's found their mark.

Mf

Yeah...if they had, we might have had to bomb Iraq.

Hey...wait a minute...

Fish on...

Todd

P.S. I guess we could have just blamed it on Iran, mebbe even connected them to 9/11 while we're at it, and "Bomb, Bomb, Bomb...Bomb-Bomb Iran!"...

I'll be flying home from D.C. to Seattle today, via New York...I wear slip on shoes when I fly...I made the mistake of wearing lace up boots only once, what a hassle at security!

Plus, they're pretty heavy and that makes them pretty hard to throw far or accurately.

Fish on...

Todd

A real warrior would slap the enemy with flip flops.

Bomb here....Bomb now....

Gotta agree with Todd on this one.

Mf

The first one that comes to mind is Joe Biden asking the senator in the wheelchair to stand up.

Next would be when McCain had to take the mic from a woman who was scared of Obama the Arab.

Seeing Merg in a bikini

The Blades thread of a day ago. Awkward!!!

I vote for Mitt Romney's "Who let the dogs out?" moment.

Classic presidential campaining... they take him out for a photo op with some young black people. They probably don't support him (or even maybe know who he is) and he looks uncomfortable in the situation. For know reason, he says "Who let the dogs out?". A very outdated reference that seemed to be done so he could "relate" to them.

Detroit Pleads Poverty in Style

Like someone arriving at a food bank in a limousine, the chief executives of the three major U.S. automakers spark outrage when they fly their corporate jets to Washington D.C. to beg Congress for a multi-billion dollar bailout. Yes, we know that corporate jets are often a cost-effective way for the heads of far-flung corporations to get around. But someone should have known this wasn't going to look good (and, sure enough, Congress sent the auto chiefs away empty-handed). At the very least, couldn't they have shared a ride? -

Lamest Road Trip Ever

Let's see ... corporate jets are a no-no ... the subway doesn't go that far ... A bike ride might just kill us ... I know! Let's drive the 10 hours from Detroit to D.C. -- in one of our cool hybrid cars! Given a second chance after the private-jet fiasco to plead their case before Congress, the Detroit 3 take to the road (separately, of course) in a company fuel-sipper. In the case of Chrysler's Robert Nardelli, the exercise in overkill is particularly awkward: The Chrysler Aspen Hybrid he drove will soon be discontinued.
