Yeah... I know. I try to be as honest as I can, that means I sometimes act like an ass. But holocaust... thinking about somebody downplaying it, just using it to support some random selfish partisan agenda, it... it just makes me mad.

He, or someone of a similar level in the administration (and Rice was getting sworn in, so probably couldn't do it), had to go to this. Can you imagine the outcry if the US had sent some minor official from State or something? The Jewish lobby would've had a fit.

Anyway, I find his attire kinda funny I saw it live on TV, and the comparison with the others was striking. I don't see what's so cold about a good overcoat and a slightly more formal hat. It's similar to showing up at a black tie event in jeans and t-shirt. But as said, he's American, and retired american tourists aren't best known for their sartorial seneses

Any country that sends someone to the Auschwitz memorial looking like that has no claim to lead the free world! How will you get the Iraqi people to trust you when you can't even look nice?

This is not a matter of left vs. right, it is about respect. If it was Fidel himself instead of Cheney I would have thought the same thing.

Ah. There's a similar thread on CFC (where the consensus, last I checked, was very much that Cheney's behaviour was entirely unacceptable), and I seem to've confused what I've posted where.

So, to have it clearly stated here too; Cheney's clothing might have been a bad PR decision, but accusing him for disrespect to the victims of Auschwitz is entirely over the top. He wore sensibly winter clothes, not a party outfit.
