Vice President Cheney's outfit wasn't solemn enough for the recent Auschwitz rememberance ceremony.
"The vice president...was dressed in the kind of attire one typically wears to operate a snow blower," quipped the sharp-witted Robin Givhan, a "writer" for the Washington Post. (Source)
With a not-so-subtle implication that Cheney, in opting to stay warm in Oswiecim, Poland, must be anti-Semitic because the cold didn't seem to bother him on Inauguration day, Givhan says, "[His clothes] had the unfortunate effect of suggesting he was more concerned with his own comfort than the reason for braving the cold at all."
Good grief.
Scott Sala's blogging about this, too. We're both bored, I guess.
Unrelated Addendum: Air America has a blog. And somebody posted my link in the comment section.
Good grief.
Speaking of Air America, Power Line's Hindrocket just finished doing an interview with used-to-be-funny Al Franken.

Al Franken said that the more you watch FOX - the dumber you get - I believe that should answer everybody questions about Al.
I was thinking along the same lines.

I think Cheney's response would be "GO @*%! Yourself"
6 Million dead...a solemn rememberance...and WaPo does a fashion commentary. That about sums up their priorities, don't ya think?

Give them some credit for finding a way to tie the Holocost into an attack on Cheney.
When was he ever funny?
