I Have No Idea What To Make Of This...
Dick Cheney shows up to a ceremony at Auschwitz looking like he just shoveled his driveway.
I know I can be a little picky about our pals in the Bush regime, but seriously, WTF???
The Washington Post reporter raises an interesting point:
Just last week, in a frigid, snow-dusted Washington, Cheney sat outside through the entire inauguration without so much as a hat and without suffering frostbite. And clearly, Cheney owns a proper overcoat. The world saw it during his swearing-in as vice president. Cheney treated that ceremony with the dignity it deserved -- not simply through his demeanor, but also through his attire. Would he have dared to take the oath of office with a ski cap on? People would have justifiably considered that an insult to the office, the day, the country.
UPDATE: Here's a shot of Uncle Dick taking the oath of office last week.
Compare and contrast...
