I don't care how they call him on it he was protected from the cold having to sit for about 2 hours in freezing conditions when you have had 4 heart attacks is no fun.

He wore clothes in Auschwitz that he obviously knew from previous experience would protect him and allow him to remain out in the cold freezing snowy weather. When he placed the candle he took off the hat and gloves and put the hood of the coat down so he did show respect.

What none of these reporters have mentioned is that this man is 64 on Sunday and has had 4 heart attacks they soon enough mention this when they want to say he is not up to doing something or is a liability. Now they are inferring that he is capable of withstanding the winter conditions as though he is a fit spring chicken as usual the MSM want their cake and to eat it. To infer it was for his own comfort rather than his health is beyond the pale and is despicable.

As for the hiking boots they were obviously to stop him from slipping on the snow and were probably boots he wears at home regularly and again feels safe in them in this weather. He is a man who coming from WY is used to these conditions and knows what he needs to wear to combat them. He obviously wore clothes that were old not brand new or borrowed gear such as Kerry did on the campaign trail. Again he is showing he is no protected flower but a real man who despite his health issues obviously does regularly go out and about in this weather and owns and wears the clothes to prove it.

I think you can tell I am hopping mad.

These people forget it is Dick Cheney and his colleagues that are protecting them and despite all they say about him he will continue to do so.

Today he was walking about all the time so the long black overcoat is fine but would not keep out freezing weather if you were sitting in it. The VP is a prudent man and this is why he is still able to have an incredible schedule because he does what he has to ensure that he can live a normal life and if that does mean wearing a green parka, hiking boots and a ski hat that is fine by me.

I do the same thing going to work. I am a female and I dress like the Michelin Man when I go out in these frigid temperatures and I see some women with no hat and short coats shivering their brains off. I smile because I am warm and they are too worried about being a fashion plate to dress warm and they are suffering. Good for Cheney - he is taking care of himself.

I can tell you are mad but this article was so silly and tripe that you shouldn't it get to you......moist of us just LOVE the Veep and made a bit of fun at him for standing out....I think you have been battling the DUmmies very hard this week.....have a drink and start the weekend early.......like me....(wink)_
