China Slams US Made-in-China Complaints

The Chinese aren’t too happy to hear what Capitol Hill thinks of the new U.S. Olympic uniforms.

FOX News Radio’s Jared Halpern explains from Washington:

Audio clip:

After learning the Ralph Lauren produced USA uniforms are made in China, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid said the suits and jackets should be put in a pile and burned.

Now China’s official news agency is blasting those complaints as hypocritical and irresponsible.

The news agency snidely suggests U.S. lawmakers be banned from wearing anything or using any product that was made abroad, a near impossible restriction in the global economy.

Still, the U.S. Olympic Committee has promised uniforms for future games will be made in America.

    "The news agency snidely suggests U.S. lawmakers be banned from wearing anything or using any product that was made abroad, a near impossible restriction in the global economy."
    Actually, requiring US lawmakers to have a certain percentage of their material goods obtained after election to be made in the USA (not all, just a decent percentage) would create jobs in the US as well as quell those snide comments. We complain frequently about lawmakers hoarding too much of our taxpayers' dollars; we should have some say in where that money goes. Frankly, I think the Chinese news agency inadvertantly hit on a great idea!
