You may remember the famous incident that occurred when someone threw a shoe at President Bush. It was viewed more times than "Everybody loves Raymond" reruns, and even made into a video game. What you may not know is that recently someone threw a book at President Obama. Some have concluded he violated the constitution with his healthcare mandate, violated bankruptcy law by his auto bailout, and violated the freedom of religion provision when he endorsed an Islamic cartoon series. Consequently someone judged him worthy of having the book thrown at him, a reference to receiving the maximum sentence allowed. They forgot with Eric Holder as attorney general the only one who will be prosecuted is a fat naked man who streaked by the president, and was arrested. No wonder the symbol of justice is blindfolded.*Update: The man arrested was offered 1 million dollars to streak naked near the president.
The book was thrown by it's author hoping the president would read it. He was not arrested.
