The U.S. uniforms for the London Games were made in China, which sparked congressional criticism of the U.S. Olympic Committee. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., said the USOC should be “ashamed of themselves” and Rep. Steve Israel, D-N.Y., called the decision “not just outrageous, it’s just plain dumb. It is self-defeating.” Ralph Lauren initially declined comment on the criticism, but 24 hours later announced clothes for future Olympics would be made in the United States.

It's okay for him to buy tons of stuff from China, but if athletes do it it is UNAMERICAN.
