Lawmakers Want ‘Made in China’ U.S. Olympic Uniforms Burned

Lawmakers were outraged Thursday after an ABC World News report revealed that the U.S. Olympic team’s opening ceremony outfits are made in China. Some suggested making a bonfire with the outfits, which include berets and blazers.

“I think they should take all the uniforms, put them in a big pile and burn them and start all over again,” Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., said when asked by ABC News today, “If they have to wear nothing but a singlet that says USA on it, painted by hand, that is what they should wear.”

It. Is. Ritual.

Ritual: A ritual is a set of actions, performed mainly for their symbolic value. It may be prescribed by the traditions of a community, including by a religious community. The term usually refers to actions which are stylized, excluding actions which are arbitrarily chosen by the performers.

6. I think Harry thought he was Gandhi

for a few moments.

might sound a bit performance arty but I'd actually like to see that bonfire going - it would really give out a good anti-Romney outsourcer extraordinaire message.

8. I'm thinking more about the athletes.

I have seen interviews with some of them when they tried them on.
They all liked them, said they were comfortable, etc.

Find something else to stage the big drama with.
