Shoe thrown at Hillary Clinton at Vegas speech

Security at the Mandalay Bay casino resort ushered out the woman, who is now in federal custody after the incident at the Institute of Scrap Recycling Industries meeting.

Clinton dodged the object, which sailed past her head.

Mark Carpenter, a spokesman for the recycling institute, said the woman was not affiliated with the organization nor credentialed for the event.

Federal custody?  Does Clinton have a Secret Service detail? 

She didn't doge shit... the girl had lousy aim.  More sympathetic liberal fluff.

I'm curious if the DUmmies will find this incident as hilarious as they did the time an Iraqi threw a shoe at George Bush.

Of course not.  This is different.

Yeah, presidents and First Ladies have lifetime security details.

That was one of the first changes Obama made after taking office.  He wants every freebie he can get his hands on for as long as he can.

If by "first changes he made" you mean, he signed off on a bill introduced by a republican and passed by both houses of congress, then yes.
