Here is the yahoo link to the pictures.

To me the pictures I've seen look like they came straight from Nazi Germany, North Korea, or Communist Russia. They also remind me of those old communist propaganda cartoon drawings that people post every now and then to make a point.

A show of the times I guess. Seig Heil!

ABC News reached out to Ralph Lauren and the U.S. Olympic Committee Wednesday and asked why American-made clothing had not been selected for the athletes.

It's because ALL major brands are made in China, I don't know of ANY that are made in the USA anymore.

Great research on the Ralph Lauren/Lee Equity Partners/Bain Capital and The Carlyle Group linkage.

The 2012 Summer Olympic berets are reported as a throwback to the Romney run 2002 Salt Lake City Winter Olympics. Recent news on the Carlyle Group:
