A good example of why mainstream conservatives make fun of liberals

When Lance Armstrong started wearing that yellow Livestrong wristband to promote his foundation, I knew what was going to happen, and it did. There are now colored wristbands for everything--pink for breast cancer, blue for tolerance, and an assortment that includes everything from a Jesus Loves Me wristband to wristbands for hope, peace, and harmony.

What Do I Know
has found the wristband to beat all wristbands, however. It turns out that the anti-poverty wristbands made for the Make Poverty History campaign are made in Chinese factories in conditions that violate both Chinese law and the Ethical Trading Initiative. In other words, sweatshops.

Doubtless, many other wristbands are made in similar conditions.

Well-written post. Since Blogger doesn't support trackback I wanted to manually tell you that we lifted your whole post as written with a link back to you. Feel free to do same should we have anything of interest, which I admit is not likely.

Blogger says it does not support trackback, but it actually does; it just has to be added on.

If you return, please add your url--there is no Blogger profile for me to follow.

And thanks.
