On Wednesday night President Bush's former Chief of Staff, Andrew Card, told "Inside Edition" that "there should be a dress code of respect....I wish that Obama would wear a suit coat and tie." Much has been made of Obama's informal appearance in a photograph taken on January 21st, the day after his inauguration.
The photo of Bush was taken on January 22nd, 2001--two days after his own inauguration.
Card also told "Inside Edition":
"The Oval Office symbolizes...the Constitution, the hopes and dreams, and I'm going to say democracy. And when you have a dress code in the Supreme Court and a dress code on the floor of the Senate, floor of the House, I think it's appropriate to have an expectation that there will be a dress code that respects the office of the President."
