Bush campaign gear made in Burma

[Chuckup]

The official merchandise Web site for President George W. Bush's re-election campaign has sold clothing made in Burma, whose goods were banned by Bush from the U.S. last year to punish its military dictatorship.

Bush last July signed into law the Burmese Freedom and Democracy Act, saying "The United States will not waver from its commitment to the cause of democracy and human rights in Burma."

Violators of the import ban are subject to fines and jail, according to the U.S. Treasury Department.

1. It is not made in the U.S.

That is the point.

2. Can you imagine?

Waking up in the morning, and wanting to wear a T-shirt with Bush or Cheney on it?

Oh lordy.

They would be all over Gore for this.

4. Seems fitting after all.

For an administration on who's watch so many American jobs have been lost should have their campaign gear made in a communist repressive governmant.

5. There's a big story within the story...

...how many times have we been told that they have to outsource in order to remain competitive?
How many times have we been told people won't buy American because it costs too much?
How many times have we been told unions can't survive because they drive up costs too much with their higher wages?

Dig it:

Newsday ordered a hat, T-shirt and fleece pullover or jacket from both the Bush and Kerry campaign stores.

The Bush* Bill-- $81.85 Outsourced Non-union slave labor sweat shop
The Kerry Bill-- $62.00 Made in USA Union-made whenever available

Blood-suckin' capitalist bastards!
