Cheney Considers Wearing Black Spike Boots After Fawning Condi
Coverage
WASHINGTON, DC --- After the Washington Post ran a story yesterday
about the "sexy" and "powerful" outfit worn by Condoleeza Rice, Dick
Cheney was seen shopping in some upper-crust boutique fashion stores
in Manhattan for some stiletto-heeled black boots. Cheney was harshly
criticized for his wardrobe during a recent visit to Auschwitz.
"The Vice President was shocked by the positive coverage received by
Condi for her boots and black trench coat," said a Cheney
spokesman. "The media really seem to judge politicians these days by
what they wear rather than what they say or do, and God knows Mr.
Cheney could use all the help he could get to gain popularity with
the media."
The Vice President is hopeful that this change of wardrobe will go a
long way to endear him to journalists here and abroad. He is
undecided on whether to start wearing short skirts or a more modest
pantsuit. "He ain't got legs like Condoleeza," added the
spokesman. "We don't want to frighten anyone." The spokesman did deny
a rumor that the White House had engaged Queer Eye for the Straight
Guy to assist the Vice President. |

TAKE COVER
quote:VP Cheney Plans Hunting Trip on Election Day
WASHINGTON -- Vice President Dick Cheney will be spending Election Day on his first hunting trip since he accidentally shot a companion last February.
A spokeswoman says after working at the White House Monday morning, Cheney will head to South Dakota to spend several days at a private hunting lodge near Pierre. Cheney's press secretary says Cheney spent Election Day in 2002 at the same lodge.
The vice president will be accompanied by his daughter, Mary, and his political director, Mel Raines, who will help him keep track of the election returns.
During a February hunting trip in Texas, Cheney shot attorney Harry Whittington in the torso, neck and face while aiming at a covey of quail. The vice president later called it "one of the worst days'' of his life.
The shooting was ruled an accident. Whittington was hospitalized for six days.
