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.
Obama’s own ties to outsourcing have come under scrutiny of late. His much-vaunted green energy loan program awarded billions of taxpayer dollars to foreign-owned companies and firms that manufacture their products overseas.
It is unclear whether the DNC will be returning Lauren’s donation. DNC communications director Brad Woodhouse did not immediately return a request for comment.

It's an absolute disgrace, on top of that they made them wear berets ffs. First time I agreed with Harry Reid that the uniforms should be thrown in a pile and burned, although he said it in that booming bellicose voice of his.

@The Grim Did Barney Frank weigh in on this matter, because I think he would approve the beret.

Of course.
America would have a less corrupt government if a mafia Don was elected president.

So the owner of a company that makes uniforms in China prompts a picture of Obama?
Well, the 2002 uniforms were made in China and Bangladesh.... Surely there is no Republican tie in there... Let's see... who was the head of the IOC during the 2002 Olympics? Oh my.. It was Mitt Romney.
Another Right wing propaganda fail.

@Lazerhead Fuck right wing/left wing, they're all in on it and have been for years. They engineered all this outsourcing through their policies. Now they pretend to act outraged.

@kajidono Right on the money, tired of people towing the party line and claiming dems or repubs did it first. They both fucking did it. They both facilitated, aided and abetted it. People are too fucking blind to see that they're all responsible for it.

And on the flip side of this coin....
Neither the White House nor Mitt Romney believe the U.S. Olympic Team’s “Made-in-China” uniforms need to be replaced with American-made apparel ahead of the London Games later this month.
Romney: "You know, I’m not going to weigh in on that. I’m sure the Olympic committee has sponsorship agreements and such that are involved in something of this nature. The Olympic games are about the athletes and we’re going to watch the athlete perform a More..

Your a jackass.... Try putting a period after "extraneous". Then put a comma after" matter", giving the sentence a break before ending it with" how well our athletes do.". Not as in a question..
How far the idiots you listen to and read to twist words and phrases is ridiculous...... Fucking with Punctuation in an attempt to twist words, fucking losers......

@dankmofo It's "You're" a jackass. You brought your thinking cap today huh?
By the way, there was no implication or twisting of words. It was a direct quote.

“they should take all the uniforms, put them in a big pile and burn them and start all over again.”
My thoughts exactly when I read the title.
