U.S. Olympic Uniforms: Made in China by .............?
"Lawmakers were livid
to discover that the United States’ Olympic team uniforms were made in
China. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D., Nev.) even suggested “they
should take all the uniforms, put them in a big pile and burn them and
start all over again.”
The company who designed the uniforms, Ralph Lauren, has received
less scrutiny. Few outlets have noted that Ralph Lauren himself is a
prominent contributor to President Obama and the Democratic Party.
According to the Center for Responsive Politics, Lauren has given
$7,300 to Obama since 2008, and more than $35,000 to the Democratic
National Committee." [The Washington Free Beacon]
UPDATE: Senate Dems introducing the “Team USA Made in America Act of 2012.” Seriously.
