I'm sure we all can remember President Bush decrying a system that now has ''millions of hard-working men and women condemned to fear and insecurity in a massive undocumented economy,'' as he urged Congress to approve that temporary worker program earlier this year. Well, he sure has an interesting way of showing his support for all the American workers who contributed to his campaign...

Rather than spending those campaign dollars on American goods for his re-election campaign, the "Bush-Cheney '04" jackets are not only being made over seas but are actually being made in a country that the US has trade sanctions against.

The Bush Administration implimented sanction against Burma last September, in an effort to punish them for human rights violations and sweat-shop labor. Of course, those sanctions don't do a whole lot when millions of Presidential dollars are pumped right into the Burmese economy anyhow. Just another case of "do as I say, not as I do" from our beloved CIC.
