    Did you see how fast she was tackled? Seems the Pope's bodyguards do a better job than ours.

    (Bush had time to dodge 2 shoes and reality tv show people can sneak into a private White House party)

    His people are good. As soon as she made her move, they tackled her. If Bush only had that protection, the 2nd shoe would have never been thrown.

    The Pope is more worth protecting than G Bush.

    Apparently this happened last year and from the initial images, it looks like she was wearing the same red jacket. Stuns me how she got in again.

    This is the 25 year-old woman who hit the Pope... The natural question:
    Would the Pope hit? (back)

    Did the Pope fall down, or did his men tackle him as a precaution? Hard to tell.

    A reasonably athletic woman in her mid-20s with no visible deformities and a complete lack of judgement or self-restraint?

    It looked like in the recent attack he actually fell or was tackled by the woman. The click from last year they showed, it seemed like they caught the person before they even got close to him. It looks like both attackers (if they weren't the same person) were wearing red.

    I think he took the charge and flopped.

    I will be the first to ask it. Why did she tackle the pope?

    I doubt they go easy on her if that is the same lady.

    She must have a thing for men with a large staff. Pope got that swagger.
