The first is Bush's Boot Camp , and as a Secret Service agent you shoot the shoes before they hit the president. In the second, That Time When That Guy Totally Threw A Shoe At President Bush: The Game , you're the Iraqi journalist with an unlimited supply of shoes. I like it better. But still, two games, two perspectives. It's up to you to check 'em out and taste history's dirty feet. Got more? Add them below!

POLITICS BUZZ: The 29-year-old Iraqi reporter who threw a shoe at President Bush is now the most famous man in Iraq. So who is he? Al Zaidi is a correspondent for Al Baghdadiya, an independent Iraqi TV station, and has been detained at least twice by military forces (once by Americans) for unspecified charges. His brother claims that the attack was not planned, but a co-worker says it had been a dream of Al Zaidi's for some time. He faces two years in jail (if Bush presses charges).
