Almost as a testimony to how hard it is these days to raise money for political parties, the Republican National Committee, (RNC), now is preparing to sell replicas of Former Vice-President Dick Cheney's cowboy hat for $72 apiece, according to ABC News on Monday. While Cheney was Vice-President, his all white cowboy hat became famous as his signature item of attire. The hat became the iconic symbol of Cheney's Vice-Presidency as well as his mark of singular distinction. Having come from Wyoming, Cheney seemed to exemplify the rugged, independent life-stye that is very popular among men from western states.
During his tenure as Vice-President, Cheney was a very high-profile figure who was hard to ignore. He was in charge of America's aggressive actions against terrorists, including but not limited to water boarding, which is a form of torture that involves forcing water down the throats of those thought to be withholding information from their interrogators. The practice is very controversial, even though it was enthusiastically condoned by George W. Bush, who was President during Cheney's tenure as Vice-President. There are some who have intimated that Cheney should be tried for war crimes because of his exercise of the water boarding torture technique, while others believe that we never would have learned important information about impending terrorist attacks had it not been for the water boarding actions taken by Cheney.
