What was he thinking?
 

At a ceremony dedicated to remembering the liberation of the Auschwitz camp, VP Cheney was there to shovel the driveway and then do some ice fishing (apparently)


I know...it's a stupid thing to harp on, but come on what was he thinking?

I guess he was thinking something along the lines of:

"Dammit, its cold out here."



You're right, it is a pretty stupid thing to harp on. Actually, I'm not even entirelt sure what it is you're harping on, since everyone else there is bundled up in their own way.

He was hoping that the clothes would distract everyone from the irony of this statement in his speech:

"The story of the camps reminds us that evil is real, and must be called by its name, and must be confronted. We are reminded that anti-Semitism may begin with words, but rarely stops with words, and the message of intolerance and hatred must be opposed before it turns into acts of horror."

He's from Wyoming, what'd you expect? And he's not running for anything after this gig, so who cares what people think about his clothing?

Typical Pettiness of Left
 

Small minds focus of small things....

Oh come on! You can see snowflakes in the picture and you wonder why he was wearing a warm coat and a knit hat? I've got to admit that the Russian style fur hats look nicer, but maybe he didn't want to look like a Russsian, and get all the PETA crowd riled up, too.

He is a bad dresser.....So what...
 

Lets face it, Dick Cheney's winter outfit will hamper his ability to score with those European chicks. A cool Rusky hat will definately increase his scoring chances....

But....maybe Mrs Cheney is doing her wifely duties well and therefore doesn't care about that.

Just goes to show you that the world press only cares about attacking the Bush Administration. They ignore all the countries that disrespect the genocide by not showing up.

whats the big deal?

Quite to the contrary most middle eastern states celebrate the holocaust.

I think in Egypt they celebrate Hitlers birthday in the major Cairo papers every year.

What more would you expect?? Those that want to kill Jews now have alot in common with those that that wanted to kill Jews then.

Remember the grand mufti of Jerusalem met with nazis to formulate how the final solution could best be undertaken in Palestine.

You guys still think a one-state solution is a good idea???
