Costume Foolery.

     I blogged yesterday about irrelevant former Bush Chief of Staff Andrew Card. The Mr. Blackwell of the Oval Office was in a snit because he's unhappy that President Obama's dress code doesn't require a suit jacket, whereas The Decider's did.

     If an argument was needed to prove that clothes don't make the man, witness the eight years of the well-dressed Dubya Disaster.

     Andy Card must have forgotten that photographers tend to keep their pictures, and today's Huffington Post has the two below, showing both GOP patron saint Ronald Reagan and the aforementioned Boy Bush jacketless, working separately on their versions of Armageddon. 

     Presidents Kennedy, Ford, Carter and Clinton are also shown sans suit jackets on HuffPo.

     President Obama may have decided that a more relaxed Oval Office dress code translates into "less is more."

     In the cases of Reagan and Bush, less really was less...
