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.

Love the Queer Eye comment. That's funny.

The mental image of Cheney in a short skirt is truly disturbing.
