The reporter, who works for the Al Baghdadia channel which broadcasts from Cairo, is also being tested for alcohol and drugs.
The reporter jumped up as Mr Bush was speaking alongside the Iraqi prime minister Nuri al Maliki on Sunday.
He shouted, “It is the farewell kiss, you dog,” before throwing two shoes.
The first hit the US and Iraqi flags behind the leaders after Mr Bush ducked. The second was off target.
