U.S. Olympic Uniforms: Made in China by Democratic Donor’s company
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.
Will Obama and the DNC return those donations? Don't count on it!

you are aware that mr. romney outsourced the manufacture of uniforms to myanmar for the 2002 games correct? you are aware that myanmar is a brutal military dictatorship that routinely enslaved it's people into forced labor? please share your thoughts."A"
Really? I believe Mr. Romney has been in a position in Washington like the hypocritical Prez, Pelosi and Reid have been. For them to say one word about outsourcing when GM was bailed out and jobs sent overseas, when our Prez makes deals to have Brazil drill for OUR oil, or for Pelosi, and blabbermouth Debbie when both invest in oversea companies is the ultimate example of hypocrisy.
When you can get those who HAVE been in office and WHO DO USE our tax dollars to shut their mouth up, you'll have a case.
A business is in business to make money. Those Democrats are in office taking our money.
You don't have a case.
which explains why mr. romney continues to lie regarding his position at bain capital. he didn't care if bain created jobs in the u.s. or china; he only cared if he made millions yet continued to avoid paying taxes on that income. proof is his lack of transparentcy regarding his tax returns, release what his father did, 12 years of returns so the voting public can see them.
he is potentially a criminal at worst and a liar at best; how else can you explain his ability to contribute in excess of 20 million dollars into a 401k account when the maximum by law per year is under 20k? he gave the mccain campaign 20 years of returns, and they came to the conclusion that sarah palin was a better vp candidate; why? what was in the returns that scared them, and continues to scare mr romney? did he pay less than the 14% previously exposed on the 1 year or returns he provided? are there years between 2000-2012 where he paid 0 taxes, recieved huge refunds or made big bets against america and her citizens?
we may never know.............
