Made In The U.S.A.? Not Really

I was proud and impressed of the new U.S. Olympic uniforms until I heard that every piece of clothing created for the United States team WAS MADE IN CHINA!

For years I have supported the USOC (United States Olympic Committee) with donations. I thrill that young people vie to be the best in their sport while representing their country with pride.

The games are about to begin in London. I watched a piece on the news which brought on my BBB (Boiling Blood Syndrome!). The reporter was detailing the stylish array of uniforms to be worn by the American team. I was proud and impressed with the fashion show until I heard that every article of the uniforms created for the United States team WAS MADE IN CHINA!

What could "they" possibly be thinking? Maybe when officials and political cheeks get rid of their red faces, they will unite and take the time before the games begin to MAKE THE U.S. UNIFORMS IN AMERICA.

That's the least that should be done. I wonder who is making the enormous profit ... somebody's getting it!
