As the saying goes, a picture is worth a thousand words.

    Funny, he's dressed like a midwestern tourist.

  • MY EYES!!! MY EYES!!!

    PS: Dammit, Brightliner, you beat me too it...

  • Karen

    Jeez...the shorts are ok, but tomorrow, he'll probably be wearing plaid ones, with black socks and sandals.

  • Ari

    Stupid is as stupid does.

  • Vin

    I am sure Diana dressed him that way.

  • -ed

    He has obviously forgotten his black knee socks at home!

  • When you have billions of dollars you don't have to worry about how you dress.

  • dan

    oh, come on, big thumbs up for mayor mike, beating the heat with shorts. pleated no less, but whatever. i can just imagine him thinking, "well, i guess I should tuck in the shirt at least."

  • Listen to all the poor people bitch.

  • he looks like a cute old guy. like a fashion illiterate father. it's endearing.

  • hot or not

    No it's not hot in Idaho.

    Please read where the picture was taken and notice the Oxygen network pres is wearing a leather jacket.

  • Brightliner

    Yeah, it's so intolerably hot. That must explain why everybody else in the picture is wearing long pants and four of them are wearing jackets.

  • anomalous

    Snark if you want to but Mike has 5.2 billion reasons not to care what anyone thinks of how he dresses.

  • smitty

    Give the guy a break, its 100 degrees outside. Personally I am wearing a white beater tank and nylon shorts and flip flops and a ponytail. Not the hottest, most stylish outfit ever!

  • Jeez...tough crowd

    What was that phrase David Letterman kept using a few years ago? "Pasty white thighs"?

  • Jen

    It's reassuring to know that Mayor B doesn't have a stylist. Note the pleated shorts!

  • La Leone

    Going sockless would make this passable (in a strictly Upper East Side way, of course) but the socks transform him into a walking incarnation of the word DORK.

  • i'd like to think that the oversight is due to the fact that he's focusing so so hard on being mayor.

    that said, can't someone tell the man that he can go sockless or that they make socks that end where his shoes end?

  • Uhuh

    Wow. All he has to do is pull those socks up and he looks just like my pops.
