Romney can see Burma from his house.
Or was it Myanmar?
When the organization Mitt Romney claims to have been running on a "day to day" basis in 2002 responded to the world concerning the outsourced Olympic uniforms, well see for yourself:
"The torch relay clothes were NOT made in Burma. They were manufactured in Myanmar," the organizing committee responded.
When the activists responded by pointing out to the SLOC that Myanmar was the name given Burma by the SLORC, the media relations committee apologized for the "misinformation" and confirmed that Marker LTD, a Salt Lake City retailer that is the SLOC's exclusive sportswear licensee for the Games, had indeed ordered the uniforms from a Burmese factory...
Burma, which was renamed Myanmar by the military junta that seized power in 1988, has long been considered one of the world's worst violators of human rights.
It is also one of the world's few regimes which uses a system of forced labor, denounced by the ILO in 1998 as "a saga of untold misery and suffering."
Way to represent, Mitt. You sure made America look like a heartless torture loving banana republic - hmmm reminds me of someone else I recall from those days. And you sure made America look smart too. Maybe we could have let Sarah Palin help you? Maybe the Tea Party could have donated some brains to the group? That would have been a Dream Team for sure!
Somehow I'm getting the feeling that the people who Romney claims run the "day to day" over at Bain have a lot in common with Sarah Palin's handlers throughout her career.
